Nano-Gréisst Magnesiumhydrid als effizient Waasserstofflagerung

Sonication is applied to magnesium hydride in order to accelerate the hydrolysis of magnesium hydride to enhance hydrogen generation. Additionally, ultrasonically nanostructured magnesium hydride, i.e. MgH2 nanoparticles, show improved hydrogen storage capacity.

Magnesiumhydrid fir Waasserstoffspäicherung

Magnesiumhydrid kann effizient a preiswert duerch Ultraschallhydrolyse synthetiséiert ginnMagnesiumhydrid, MgH2, has drawn widely attention as option for hydrogen storage. Main benefits are its abundant resource, high performance, light weight, low-cost, and safety. In comparison to other hydrides usable for hydrogen storage, MgH2 has the highest hydrogen storage densities with up to 7.6 wt %. Hydrogen can be stored in Mg in the form of Mg-based metal hydrides. The process of MgH2 synthesis is known as dissociative chemisorption. A common method to produce Mg-based metal hydride from Mg and H2, is the formation at a temperature of 300–400°C and a hydrogen pressure of 2.4–40 MPa. The formation equation goes as following: Mg + H2 ⇌ MgH2
The high heat treatment comes with significant degradation effects of the hydrides, such as recrystallization, phase segregation, nanoparticles agglomeration etc. Furthermore, high temperatures and pressures make the formation of MgH2 energy-intensive, complex and thereby expensive.

Ultraschall Hydrolyse vu Magnesium Hydrid

Hiroi et al. (2011) demonstrated that sonication of MgH2 nano-particles and nanofibres intensified the hydrolysis reaction MgH2 + 2H2O = Mg(OH)2 + 2H2 + 277 kJ. In this study, the MgH2 nanofibers exhibited the maximum hydrogen storage capacity of 14.4 mass% at room temperature. Additionally, the researchers demonstrated that a combination of sonication and MgH2 hydrolysis is considerably effective for efficiently generating hydrogen without heating and adding any chemical agent. They also found that low frequency ultrasound was the most efficient method in order to obtain a high conversion rate. The hydrolysis rate at low frequency sonication “reached as high as 76% in terms of the reaction degree at 7.2 ks at an ultrasonic frequency of 28 kHz. This value was more than 15 times the value obtained in the case of the non-sonicated sample, indicating an equivalent hydrogen density of 11.6 mass% on the basis of the weight of MgH2.”

(Hiroi et al. 2011)

Problem: Lues Hydrolyse vu Magnesiumhydrid

Promotion of magnesium hydride hydrolysis via ball milling, hot water treatment or chemical additives have been investigated, but were not found to enhance the chemical conversion rate in a significant manner. Regarding the addition of chemicals, chemical additives, such as buffering agents, chelators, and ion exchangers, which helped to prevent the formation of a passivating Mg(OH)2 layer, produced impurities in the post-Mg cycling process.

Nanostructured Magnesium Hydride as Improved Hydrogen Storage

Nano-structuring magnesium hydrides has been scientifically proven to be an effective strategy which allows to simultaneously enhance the ab/de-sorption thermodynamic and kinetic properties of MgH2. Nano-sized / nano-structured magnesium-based structures such as MgH2 nanoparticles and nanofibres can be further enhanced by reducing the particle and grain size, thereby decreasing their hydride formation enthalpy ΔH. Calculations revealed reaction barrier for the decomposition of nano-sized MgH2 was remarkably lower than that of bulk MgH2, indicating that nanostructure engineering of MgH2 is thermodynamically and kinetically favourable to the enhanced performance. (cf. Ren et al., 2023)

Ultrasonic Nanosizing and Nanostructuring of Magnesium Hydride

The research team of Dr. Andreeva investigated the beneficial effects of sonication on nanostructuring metals and minerals such as magnesiumUltrasonic nanostructuring is a highly effective technique that allows to change the thermodynamics of magnesium hydride without affecting the hydrogen capacity. The ultra-fine MgH2 nanoparticles exhibit a significantly improved hydrogen desorption capacity. Nano-sizing magnesium hydride is a way to significantly reduce the hydrogen ab-/de-sorption temperature and increase the rate of re/de-hydrogenation of MgH2, due to the introduction of defects, shortening of hydrogen diffusion paths, increasing of nucleation sites, and destabilization of Mg–H bonding.
A simple sonochemical treatment provides the possibility of low-energy hydrides formation, particularly, in the case of magnesium particles treatment. For instance, Baidukova et al. (2026) demonstrated the possibility to form low-energy hydrides in a porous magnesium-magnesium hydroxide matrix by means of the sonochemical treatment of magnesium particles in aqueous suspensions.

Sonochemically Synthesized Nano-Magnesium Hydride for Efficient Hydrogen Storage

Ultrasonically prepared magnesium hydride nanoparticles achieve ambient-temperature reversibility of 6.7 wt% reversible storage of hydrogen
Using light metal hydrides as carriers for hydrogen storage is a promising approach for safe and efficient storage of hydrogen. One particular metal hydride, magnesium hydride (MgH2), has gained significant interest due to its high hydrogen content and the abundance of magnesium in nature. However, bulk MgH2 has the disadvantage of being stable, only releasing hydrogen at very high temperatures of more than 300°C. This is impractical and inefficient for hydrogen-storage related applications.
Zhang et al. (2020) investigated the possibility of reversible hydrogen storage at ambient temperature by creating ultrafine nanoparticles of MgH2. They used sonication in order to initiate a metathesis process, which is effectively a double decomposition process. Sonication was applied to a slurry consisting in liquid and solids with the purpose to create nanoparticles. These nanoparticles, without any additional scaffold structures, were successfully produced with sizes predominantly around 4-5 nm. For these nanoparticles, the y measured a reversible hydrogen storage capacity of 6.7 wt% at 30°C , a significant achievement that has not been demonstrated before. This was made possible by thermodynamic destabilization and reduced kinetic barriers. The bare nanoparticles also exhibited stable and rapid hydrogen cycling behavior during 50 cycles at 150°C, a notable improvement compared to bulk MgH2. These findings presents sonication as potential treatment leading to higher efficiency of MgH2 for hydrogen storage.

Wat ass Magnesium Hydrid?

Magnesiumhydrid (MgH2; och bekannt als Magnesiumdihydrid) huet eng tetragonal Struktur a weist d'Form vun engem faarflose kubesche Kristall oder off-white Pudder aus. Et gëtt als hdyrogen Quell fir Brennbatterien ënner 10.000W benotzt. De Waasserstoffmengen deen duerch Waasser verëffentlecht gëtt ass méi héich wéi 14.8wt%, dat ass däitlech méi héich wéi de Waasserstoffmengen iwwer en Héichdrockgas Waasserstoffspäichertank (70MPa, ~ 5.5wt%) a Schwéiermetall Waasserstoff Späichermaterial (<2wt%). Furthermore, magnesium hydride is safe and highly efficient, which turns it into a promising technology for efficacious hydrogen storage. Hydrolysis of magnesium hydride is used as supply hydrogen system in proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC), which improve energy density of the system significantly. Solid / semi-solid Mg-H fuel battery systems with high-energy density are also in development. Their promising advantage is an energy density 3-5 times higher than that of lithium-ion batteries.
