Book Tailoring the Kinetic Behavior of Hydride Forming Materials for Hydrogen Storage

Download or read book Tailoring the Kinetic Behavior of Hydride Forming Materials for Hydrogen Storage written by Juli√°n Puszkiel and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydride forming materials, i.e., binary, complex hydrides, and their mixtures, have been extensively investigated owing to their potential hydrogen storage properties. They possess high volumetric hydrogen capacity and relative high gravimetric hydrogen capacity. However, one of the main constraints for their practical application is their slow kinetic behavior. For this reason, enormous effort has been devoted to improve the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation rates. Several strategies have been developed for the enhancement of the kinetic behavior of the most relevant hydride forming materials such as MgH2, MBH4 (M¬†=¬†Li, Ca, Mg, Na, K), MNH2 (M¬†=¬†Li and Mg), MBH4¬†+¬†,ÄòMH2 (M¬†=¬†Li, Ca, Mg; ,ÄòM¬†=¬†Li, Mg, Ca), and MNH2¬†+¬†,ÄòMH2 (M¬†=¬†Li, Mg; ,ÄòM¬†=¬†Li). Tuning the kinetic behavior of these hydride forming materials involves different approaches and their combinations. The most relevant approaches are: (1) improving the microstructural refinement via mechanical milling, (2) doping with transition metal and transition metal compounds, (3) forming in situ catalyst, and (4) nanoconfining doped hydride forming materials. Herein, basic concepts about the chemical reaction for the hydride compound formation/decomposition, thermodynamics, kinetics, and applied strategies to enhance the kinetic behavior of hydride compounds and systems are comprehensively described and discussed.

Book First Principles Modeling of Hydrogen Storage in Metal Hydride Systems

Download or read book First Principles Modeling of Hydrogen Storage in Metal Hydride Systems written by and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this project is to complement experimental efforts of MHoCE partners by using state-of-the-art theory and modeling to study the structure, thermodynamics, and kinetics of hydrogen storage materials. Specific goals include prediction of the heats of formation and other thermodynamic properties of alloys from first principles methods, identification of new alloys that can be tested experimentally, calculation of surface and energetic properties of nanoparticles, and calculation of kinetics involved with hydrogenation and dehydrogenation processes. Discovery of new metal hydrides with enhanced properties compared with existing materials is a critical need for the Metal Hydride Center of Excellence. New materials discovery can be aided by the use of first principles (ab initio) computational modeling in two ways: (1) The properties, including mechanisms, of existing materials can be better elucidated through a combined modeling/experimental approach. (2) The thermodynamic properties of novel materials that have not been made can, in many cases, be quickly screened with ab initio methods. We have used state-of-the-art computational techniques to explore millions of possible reaction conditions consisting of different element spaces, compositions, and temperatures. We have identified potentially promising single- and multi-step reactions that can be explored experimentally.

Book Hydrogen Transport in Hydride and Non hydride Forming Metals and the Mechanistic Implications for Fracture Behavior

Download or read book Hydrogen Transport in Hydride and Non hydride Forming Metals and the Mechanistic Implications for Fracture Behavior written by Jon Michael Lufrano and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite intense research, a complete mechanistic understanding of the hydrogen embrittlement phenomenon has yet to be achieved. Regardless of the specific mechanism of hydrogen embrittlement, a better understanding of hydrogen transport, hydride formation and their mechanistic effects on stress and strain is needed to elucidate the role of hydrogen in the mechanics of fracture. The thesis consists of five distinct projects, thereby allowing for the analysis of stress induced hydrogen transport in different systems under varying degrees of model complexity. The metal-hydrogen systems are modeled using a continuum mechanics approach and the solutions are obtained via iterative numerical methods. The first project examines the interaction of solute hydrogen atoms with the stress field of a sharp crack in an elastic material under equilibrium conditions. The effect of hydrogen induced volume dilatation and modulus softening on the crack tip stress fields is examined. In the next project, transient hydrogen transport and elastically accommodated hydride formation near a stationary sharp crack in an elastic material are analyzed. The third project considers the competition between hydrostatic stress and plastic strain in determining the interstitial and trapped hydrogen concentrations near a stress concentration in an elastoplastic material. Recent experimental data are considered in the fourth project, in which parameter studies are performed to gain insight into the factors responsible for the development of enhanced hydrogen concentrations in the nickel superalloy, X-750. In the final project, transient hydrogen diffusion and hydride formation near a stationary crack tip in an elastoplastic material are examined. A formulation for determining the effect of an external stress on the terminal solid solubility of hydrogen in an elastoplastic material is presented. A criterion for fracture via hydride formation and subsequent brittle cleavage is proposed and the fracture toughness of a cracked specimen in the presence of hydrogen is shown to be dependent on the tensile loading rate.
