Problems solved by technology

Currently commercially available polycrystalline MgH 2 The powder is not only expensive, but also has a large grain size. When used as a hydrogen storage material, the kinetics of hydrogen absorption and desorption is extremely slow; when hydrogen is produced by hydrolysis, Mg(OH) 2 Passive film coated in unreacted MgH 2 surface, resulting in a significant decrease in the hydrolysis reaction rate or the inability to continue the reaction, so it cannot be directly used for hydrogen storage or hydrogen production by hydrolysis

preparation example Construction

[0042] The method for preparing magnesium hydride of the present invention generally comprises the following steps:

[0043] a) vacuumize the reaction vessel;

[0044] b) In the vacuum environment of the reaction vessel, the magnesium block is heated and evaporated into magnesium vapor, and part of the magnesium vapor is condensed into magnesium powder on the upper part of the reaction vessel;

[0045] c) charging hydrogen into the reaction vessel;

[0046] d) heating, and insulation, allowing magnesium powder, magnesium vapor and hydrogen to react;

[0047] e) cooling, allowing the magnesium hydride generated to be deposited on the inner wall of the reaction vessel;

[0048] f) Passivation, collecting and obtaining magnesium hydride.

[0049] In step a), the reaction vessel is evacuated to 10 -3 -10 -2 Pa. In step b), the magnesium block is heated to 650-750° C. to evaporate into magnesium vapor. In step c), hydrogen is charged until the pressure is 5-8 MPa. In step d...

Embodiment 1

[0063] 1) Open the lid of the reaction kettle 1 and the plug-in valve 2, put the pure Mg block into a ceramic crucible (caliber slightly smaller than the first heating coil 3), and then place it in the first heating coil 3 of the lower part 11 of the reaction kettle 1;

[0064] 2) Close the lid, the air inlet 121, the air inlet and outlet and the air outlet 122 of the reactor 1, and seal the reactor 1;

[0065] 3) Open vacuum pump 5 and air outlet 122, vacuumize to 10 -2 Pa, then close the vacuum pump 5 and the air outlet 122;

[0066] 4) Turn on the first control power supply 8, the first heating coil 3 works, heat to 650°C to evaporate the Mg block, and the Mg vapor will deposit on the inner wall of the reaction kettle when it is cooled to 650°C. The time is 5 hours;

[0067] 5) Close the plugboard valve 2 and the first control power supply 8, charge H 2 to 6MPa;

[0068] 6) Turn on the second control power supply 9, the second heating coil works, heat to 350°C and then ...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing magnesium hydride, and also relates to a device for preparing magnesium hydride. Background technique [0002] Magnesium hydride (MgH 2 ), also known as magnesium dihydride, is an inorganic salt, the appearance is off-white powder, the crystal structure is a tetragonal system, and the density is 1.45g / cm 3 . [0003] MgH 2 It is a covalent hydride, and its enthalpy of formation is -74.5kJ / mol. It has high stability at normal temperature and pressure, and the hydrogen absorption and desorption temperature is generally as high as 623-673K. MgH 2 Under vacuum, it decomposes at 280°C. MgH 2 It is weakly alkaline, insoluble in general organic solvents, flammable and irritating. MgH 2 It cannot be used to replace calcium hydride as a hydrogen source or desiccant, nor can it replace sodium hydride as an alkaline condensing agent in organic reactions, because its alkalinity is too weak, but it can form po...
