| 20090278086 | Nanocrystalline Composite for Storage of Hydrogen - The invention relates to a method for preparation of a material adapted to reversible storage of hydrogen, including steps consisting of providing a first powder of a magnesium-based material, hydrogenating the first powder to convert at least part of the first powder into metal hydrides, mixing the first hydrogenating powder with a second powder additive, the proportion by mass of the second powder in the mix obtained being between 1% and 20% by mass, wherein the additive is formed from an alloy with a centred cubic structure based on titatnium, vanadium and at least one other metal chosen from chromium or manganese, and grinding the mix of first and second powders. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20100150822 | PULVERULENT INTERMETALLIC MATERIALS FOR THE REVERSIBLE STORAGE OF HYDROGEN - The present invention relates to pulverulent materials suitable for storing hydrogen, and more particularly to a method of preparing such a material, in which: (A) a composite metallic material having a specific granular structure is prepared by co-melting the following mixtures: a first metallic mixture (m1), which is an alloy (a1) of body-centred cubic crystal structure, based on titanium, vanadium, chromium and/or manganese, or a mixture of these metals in the proportions of the alloy (a1); and a second mixture (m2), which is an alloy (a2), comprising 38 to 42% zirconium, niobium, molybdenum, hafnium, tantalum and/or tungsten and 56 to 60 mol % of nickel and/or copper, or else a mixture of these metals in the proportions of the alloy (a2), with a mass ratio (m2)/(m1+m2) ranging from 0.1 wt % to 20 wt %; and (B) the composite metallic material thus obtained is hydrogenated, whereby the composite material is fragmented (hydrogen decrepitation). | 06-17-2010 |
| 20100266488 | HYDROGEN STORAGE MATERIAL MADE FROM MAGNESIUM HYDRIDE - A compacted material includes magnesium hydride and expanded natural graphite and a method for preparing such a material including the steps which consist in: (i) mixing a magnesium hydride or powdered magnesium with a powdered graphite; and (ii) shaping the mixture by compaction. It also proposes the use of the material for hydrogen storage and a method for hydrogen storage and release from storage including the steps which consist in: (a) introducing the material into a suitable hydrogen tank; (b) placing the material under hydrogen pressure in pressure and temperature conditions that enable the hydrogen to be absorbed by the material; and (c) desorbing the hydrogen from the material in pressure and temperature conditions permitting the desorption of the material. | 10-21-2010 |
