摘要

A reversible reaction, 4LiBH(4) + NdH2 <-> NdB4 + 4LiH + 7H(2), which destabilizes the dehydrogenation thermodynamics of LiBH4, has been found in the present work. Significantly, we prove that the reversibility only exists when NdH2+x is in size of less than about 10 nm. With this reaction, the estimated dehydrogenation enthalpy change is reduced from 74 kJ mol(-1) H-2 for pristine LiBH4 to 64 kJ mol(-1) H-2; the theoretical hydrogen capacity is 6.0 wt%, and there is no emission of deleterious BH3 and B2H6. Moreover, the dehydrogenation kinetics of this reaction are fast-6.0 wt% hydrogen was released within 1.5 h at 370 degrees C. When the NdH2+x becomes stable owing to its significant growth, the thermodynamic destabilization effect does not occur after several hydrogenation/dehydrogenation cycles. However, the presence of NdH2+x also has a positive effect upon the dehydrogenation kinetics of LiBH4. This novel finding is beneficial for modifying the reversibility of the reactive hydride composite systems through nanosize controlling.
