Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of new energy solid-state hydrogen storage, and in particular to a preparation method of a carbon cloth-supported nickel-palladium nanocatalyst and its solid-state hydrogen storage application. Background Art
[0002] Hydrogen, a clean and versatile energy carrier, has attracted widespread attention as a potential solution to the global challenges posed by climate change and energy sustainability. Its use in fuel cells, transportation, and industrial processes has the potential to revolutionize energy systems, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. However, efficient hydrogen storage remains a key bottleneck to its widespread application.
[0003] Solid-state hydrogen storage, particularly metal hydride hydrogen storage, offers a promising approach due to its high volumetric and gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity and potential for safe applications. Among various metal hydride systems, magnesium hydride (MgH2) has emerged as an ideal candidate for hydrogen storage applications. MgH2 has a theoretical hydrogen storage capacity of up to 7.6 wt%, and the raw material is abundant and relatively low in cost. Furthermore, magnesium is non-toxic, non-flammable, and has low reactivity, making it an attractive hydrogen storage material from a safety perspective. However, the practical application of MgH2 faces several challenges, such as slow kinetics and the high thermodynamics required for hydrogen absorption and desorption. The strong chemical bond between magnesium and hydrogen typically results in a decomposition temperature of pure MgH2 exceeding 350°C, while the slow diffusion rate of H atoms in the hydride also results in a decomposition temperature of MgH2 exceeding 350°C.
[0004] In order to overcome these challenges, many methods have been adopted to improve the performance of magnesium hydride for hydrogen storage. At present, catalytic doping has become a powerful and effective strategy. Especially under the decoration of transition metals (such as Ni, Ti and Co), catalyst doping can mostly form an intermediate phase during the reaction process, thereby reducing the reaction energy barrier of MgH2 and further promoting the absorption and desorption of hydrogen. In fact, the catalytic effect of a single transition metal has limitations. Doping a second transition metal element to form a bimetallic catalyst can make up for this deficiency, achieve a synergistic effect, and further improve the catalytic effect of the hydrogen storage system. In addition, the preparation of the catalyst will affect the apparent morphology and structural properties of the catalyst itself. In this case, selecting a suitable catalyst support and reducing the particle size of the catalyst to the nanoscale are also considered to be other effective methods. At the same time, in order to make the catalyst diffuse and distribute while avoiding agglomeration, different carbon materials are usually selected as the growth support of metal nanocatalysts to promote the preferential nucleation of the catalyst on the host surface. For example, patent CN115301240A discloses a carbon-coated CoNi bimetallic hydrogen storage catalyst, its preparation method and application. The carbon-coated CoNi catalyst is obtained by organic thermal decomposition and the remaining MgH2 is compounded, which greatly improves the hydrogen storage performance of MgH2. However, the catalyst preparation time is too long, the conditions are cumbersome, and the process is complicated.
[0005] In response to the above problems, it is very necessary to develop a simple and fast method to synthesize well-dispersed and uniformly composed nanocatalysts to reduce process costs and improve the hydrogen storage performance of MgH2. Summary of the Invention

The results show that the MgH2 composite hydrogen storage system doped with nickel palladium catalyst exhibits a more excellent hydrogen desorption efficiency, among which MgH2-Ni 0.9 Pd 0.1 The @CC composite material has the best effect, and it only takes 7 minutes to release 5.69wt% of hydrogen at 573K, indicating that the doping of nickel target catalyst reduces the hydrogen decomposition barrier of MgH2, accelerates the dehydrogenation rate, and improves the dehydrogenation efficiency.

The results show that the MgH2 composite hydrogen storage system doped with nickel palladium catalyst greatly improves the hydrogen absorption capacity at low temperatures, among which MgH2-Ni 0.9 Pd 0.1The @CC composite showed the best effect, rapidly absorbing 3.10 wt% hydrogen even at 373 K.

The results show that the MgH2 composite hydrogen storage system doped with nickel-palladium catalysts all exhibits a low activation energy for hydrogen release, among which MgH2-Ni 0.9 Pd 0.1 @CC composite material was reduced to 76.9kJ / mol.
[0112] Figures 10-11 They are MgH2-Ni prepared by carbon thermal shock in Example 1 0.9 Pd 0.1 @CC and the cycling stability diagram of MgH2 in comparative example 3 show that MgH2-Ni 0.9 Pd 0.1 The @CC composite material has the best cyclic stability. After thirty cycles at 300°C, the hydrogen absorption and desorption amounts are 5.59wt% and 5.38wt%, respectively, and the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacity retention rates are 97.7% and 95.6%, respectively. In comparison, the hydrogen absorption and desorption amounts of MgH2 are only 4.06% and 4.03%, and the hydrogen absorption and desorption capacity retention rates are only 65.5% and 62.5%, respectively. This shows that the composite material doped with nickel target catalyst has a significant improvement in the cyclic performance.

Its initial dehydrogenation temperature is reduced to 486K compared to 577K of MgH2, and it takes only 7 minutes to reach a dehydrogenation rate of 5.69wt% at a temperature of 573K. At the same time, the apparent activation energy of dehydrogenation is 76.9kJ / mol, which significantly reduces the kinetic barrier of the dehydrogenation reaction of MgH2 and improves its dehydrogenation performance. 0.9 Pd 0.1 The @CC composite hydrogen storage system has a hydrogen absorption capacity and hydrogen desorption capacity retention rate of 97.7% and 95.6% after thirty cycles, respectively, which is a significant improvement compared to 65.5% and 62.5% of MgH2.
