Investigation of metal hydride materials as hydrogen reservoirs for metal--hydrogen batteries

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7113642
The performance and suitability of various metal hydride materials were examined for use as possible hydrogen storage reservoirs for secondary metal--hydrogen batteries. Lanthanum pentanickel hydride appears as a probable candidate in terms of stable hydrogen supply under feasible thermal conditions. A kinetic model describing the decomposition rate data of the hydride has been developed. (auth)
