简介:Inthisstudy,theeffectofmulti-walledcarbonnanotubes(MWCNTs)additiveonthedehydridingpropertiesoftheZn(BH4)2/NaCIcompositepreparedbyhighenergyballmillingwereinvestigated.X-raydiffraction(XRD),Fouriertransforminfraredspectroscopy(FTIR)resultsdemonstratedthatZn(BH4)2wasproducedfrommechanochemicalreactionbetweenZnCI2andNaBH4.Comparedwiththeundopedsample,10wt%MWCNTseffectivelyloweredthedecompositiontemperatureofZn(BH4)2by15℃.Thecomplexreleased3.6wt%hydrogenwithin250sat100℃andtotallyreleased4.5wt%hydrogenwithin2500s,indicatingithasaconsiderablepotentialasahydrogenstoragematerial.
