Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hydrogen energy storage, specifically relating to a NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene modified magnesium-based hydrogen storage material. Background Technology

[0002] As a potential alternative to fossil fuels, hydrogen energy is receiving increasing attention, offering an effective way to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and address the challenges posed by the depletion of fossil fuel resources. However, developing safe and reliable hydrogen storage and transportation technologies is crucial for the large-scale application of hydrogen energy. Various solid-state hydrogen storage materials, such as metal hydrides, porous adsorbents, and coordinated metal hydrides, have shown the potential to effectively solve many problems in hydrogen production and application. Magnesium hydride (MgH2), with a theoretical hydrogen storage capacity of 7.6 wt%, good reversibility, and abundant natural reserves, is considered a promising candidate material for solid-state hydrogen storage. However, its widespread application is limited by two main drawbacks: the high hydrogen desorption temperature caused by its inherently slow kinetics, and the high thermodynamic stability required to control the hydrogen absorption and desorption process. Therefore, in-depth research on improving the hydrogen absorption and desorption performance of MgH2 is crucial for advancing its practical application.

[0003] Introducing active catalytic components is an effective strategy for regulating the performance of magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials, and it is widely used to improve the hydrogen storage performance of MgH2. In recent years, layered transition metal borides (MBene) have attracted much attention due to their layered structure similar to MXene and their inherent boron-rich chemical environment. Currently, research on MBene mainly focuses on its structure, synthesis methods, and applications in electrocatalysis, photocatalytic hydrogen production, electrochemical energy storage, sensors, and targeted drug delivery. Research reports on the catalytic effect of MBene on hydrogen storage materials are relatively few. Transition metal borides are highly efficient active catalytic components that can improve the hydrogen storage performance of MgH2. They can act as active nucleation sites for reaction products, promoting the adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen within the material, thereby improving the hydrogen adsorption and desorption kinetics of MgH2. Furthermore, due to their unique electronic configuration and crystal structure, transition metals and their oxides can effectively weaken the Mg-H bond, thereby reducing the thermodynamic stability of MgH2.

[0004] Recent studies have shown that composite catalysts composed of multiple components can significantly improve the hydrogen adsorption and desorption performance of MgH2 through synergistic interfacial interactions. However, the synergistic potential of combining transition metal oxides with emerging two-dimensional transition metal borides has not been fully explored. This invention employs a hydrothermal method to in-situ support NiO nanoparticles on Mo... 4 / 3 NiO@Mo was prepared on the surface of B2-MBene nanosheets. 4 / 3The B2-MBene composite catalyst was then introduced into MgH2 via mechanical ball milling, aiming to improve the hydrogen absorption and dehydrogenation performance of MgH2 by utilizing the synergistic effect between different components. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This invention aims to introduce for the first time a layered transition metal boride loaded with nickel oxide into the field of magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials, thereby solving the technical bottlenecks faced by existing magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials, such as high hydrogen desorption temperature, slow reaction kinetics, and insufficient cycle stability.

NaOH solution was then added dropwise to adjust the pH to 10, and stirring continued. The mixed solution was then transferred to a high-pressure reactor for hydrothermal reaction. After the reaction, the solution was centrifuged to remove impurities, and the resulting precipitate was dried in a vacuum drying oven. Finally, the precursor was calcined in a muffle furnace to obtain NiO@Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene powder; (3) Preparation of magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials: magnesium hydride is reacted with the NiO@Mo obtained in step (2). 4 / 3 B2-MBene powder was weighed according to stoichiometric ratio and subjected to high-energy mechanical ball milling under an inert atmosphere to obtain MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene hydrogen storage material, which contains 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 MgH2 of B2-MBene.

[0010] Further, in step (1), the mass concentration of the hydrofluoric acid solution is 40%, (Mo 2 / 3 Y 1 / 3 The ratio of AlB2-MAB powder to 40% HF solution was 1 g: 25 mL; the selective etching conditions were 0–100 °C with magnetic stirring for 1–60 h; the centrifugation speed was 1000–10000 r / min, and the mixture was centrifuged 6 times until the supernatant was neutral.

[0032] Three catalysts (Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene was introduced into the MgH2 hydrogen storage material by mechanical ball milling, with the addition amount of each of the three catalysts being 10 wt%.

[0033] To evaluate NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The catalytic effect of B2-MBene on the hydrogen storage performance of MgH2, specifically on the effect of ball-milled MgH2 + 10wt%X (X=Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 Hydrogen absorption and desorption performance tests were conducted on B2-MBene and pure MgH2 samples. Figure 11 In the embodiments of the present invention, MgH2 + 10 wt%X (X = Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The dehydrogenation curves of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material and pure MgH2 from room temperature to 400 °C are presented, demonstrating the dehydrogenation curves of MgH2 with different catalysts added during heating from room temperature to 400 °C. The dehydrogenation onset temperature of pure MgH2 is as high as 315 °C. The introduction of Mo... 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 Following B2-MBene, the initial dehydrogenation temperatures significantly decreased to 259 °C, 213 °C, and 203 °C, respectively. It is noteworthy that NiO@Mo... 4 / 3 After B2-MBene was incorporated into MgH2, its dehydrogenation onset temperature was reduced by 112 °C compared to unmodified MgH2. At 275 °C, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3B2-MBene underwent almost complete dehydrogenation, releasing a capacity of 6.2 wt%. Additionally, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene exhibits faster dehydrogenation performance, with a dehydrogenation cutoff temperature compared to MgH2 + 10 wt%Mo. 4 / 3B2-MBene and MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO reduced the temperature by 64 °C and 42 °C, respectively. Figure 12 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt%X (X = Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The isothermal hydrogen desorption curves of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material and pure MgH2 at 300 ℃ and 0.001 MPa H2 conditions, and the isothermal dehydrogenation curve at 300 ℃, show that the amount of H2 released by MgH2 at this temperature is negligible. When Mo is added... 4 / 3 When B2-MBene and NiO were used as catalysts, the amount of H2 released by MgH2 within 10 min was 1.0 wt% and 4.6 wt%, respectively. It is worth noting that NiO@Mo... 4 / 3 The addition of B2-MBene significantly enhanced the dehydrogenation capacity of MgH2, releasing 6.2 wt% H2 within the same time frame. These results indicate that NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene effectively reduced the dehydrogenation initiation temperature of MgH2 and improved the dehydrogenation kinetics of MgH2.

[0034] Figure 13 In the embodiments of the present invention, MgH2 + 10 wt%X (X = Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The hydrogen absorption curves of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material and pure MgH2 from room temperature to 400 °C were compared for the addition of Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The temperature-programmed hydrogen absorption curve of B2-MBene MgH2 material shows that after the sample was fully dehydrogenated and activated, it was heated from room temperature to 400 °C. During this process, the initial hydrogenation temperature of MgH2 decreased significantly, and the dehydrogenated MgH2 + 10 wt% Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene, MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO and MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene can begin to absorb hydrogen at room temperature. When the temperature is increased from room temperature to 150 °C, the dehydrogenated state MgH2 + 10 wt%Mo 4 / 3The hydrogen absorption capacities of B2-MBene and MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO increased to 1.6 wt% and 3.9 wt%, respectively. Under the same conditions, the original MgH2 absorbed only 0.1 wt% H2, while MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene exhibited a hydrogen absorption capacity of up to 4.9 wt%, significantly superior to all other tested samples. Furthermore, Figure 14 In the embodiments of the present invention, MgH2 + 10 wt%X (X = Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene, NiO and NiO@Mo 4 / 3 Isothermal hydrogen absorption curves of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material and pure MgH2 under 150 ℃ and 6 MPa H2 conditions, and the dehydrogenated MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene absorbed 4.7 wt% H2 within 10 min, consisting of MgH2 + 10 wt% Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene and MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO have 2.2 times and 1.5 times the absorption capacity, respectively. Under the same conditions, pure MgH2 can only absorb 0.2 wt% H2, while the absorption capacity of NiO@Mo is significantly higher. 4 / 3 Following B2-MBene, the hydrogen absorption capacity increased by approximately 4.5 wt%. These results collectively indicate that, among the evaluated catalysts, NiO@Mo... 4 / 3B2-MBene exhibits the best catalytic performance for the hydrogen absorption reaction of MgH2. Comparative evaluation of catalytic activity shows that NiO and Mo in this magnesium-based hydrogen storage material... 4 / 3 There is a significant synergistic effect between B2-MBene, and its overall performance is superior to that of any single catalyst.

[0035] To investigate NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The effect of B2-MBene on the hydrogen desorption kinetics of MgH2 was investigated by isothermal hydrogen desorption tests at different temperatures. Figure 15 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The isothermal hydrogen desorption curves of B2-MBene at 225 ℃, 250 ℃, 275 ℃, 300 ℃, and 325 ℃ show a significant difference compared to the negligible H2 release of pure MgH2 at 325 ℃. (MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo) 4 / 3 B2-MBene achieved a hydrogen release capacity of 6.1 wt% within 5 minutes, representing a 10.5-fold increase. This magnesium-based hydrogen storage material released 6.0 wt% H2 within 30 minutes at 275 °C. Figure 16The figures show the isothermal hydrogen release curves of pure MgH2 at 325 ℃, 350 ℃, 375 ℃ and 400 ℃ in the embodiments of the present invention. Pure MgH2 only begins to release hydrogen at a temperature as high as 319 ℃, and only 2.4 wt% of H2 is released in the same time at 325 ℃.

[0036] Figure 17 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 Isothermal hydrogen absorption curves of B2-MBene at 50 ℃, 75 ℃, 100 ℃, 125 ℃ and 150 ℃, respectively. At 50 ℃, MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene absorbed 2.5 wt% of hydrogen within 60 min. When the temperature was raised to 150 °C, the hydrogen absorption rate increased significantly, absorbing 4.8 wt% of H2 and reaching saturation in just 10 min. Figure 18 The figures show the isothermal hydrogen absorption curves of pure MgH2 at 175 °C, 200 °C, 225 °C, and 250 °C in the embodiments of this invention. In contrast, the original MgH2 requires 35 min to absorb 5.1 wt% H2 at 225 °C and approaches saturation within 25 min at 250 °C. This indicates that the reaction rate is significantly higher than that of MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene is slower and requires a higher temperature to achieve effective hydrogen absorption.

[0037] Figure 19 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The cycling performance image of B2-MBene shows that the activation process is basically completed within the first three cycles, and the hydrogen desorption capacity reaches its maximum of 6.3 wt% in the fourth cycle. After 50 consecutive hydrogen adsorption / desorption cycles, the hydrogen storage capacity of this magnesium-based hydrogen storage material remains at 6.1 wt%, approximately 95.8% of the peak capacity, demonstrating excellent cycling stability. This result indicates that NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The introduction of B2-MBene catalyst can significantly improve the reversible hydrogen absorption and desorption performance and cycle retention rate of MgH2.

[0038] Figure 20 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 XRD patterns of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after ball milling, after 5 hydrogen release cycles, and after 5 hydrogen absorption cycles, showing the synthesized MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene is mainly composed of MgH2, NiO, and Mo. 4 / 3The sample was composed of a B2-MBene phase. Furthermore, during hydrogen adsorption and desorption, a diffraction peak at a scattering angle of 43.2° was observed, attributing to MgO. The trace amounts of MgO detected in the sample likely originated from the surface oxidation of MgH2 during ball milling and sample preparation. A reversible transition occurred between Mg and MgH2 during hydrogen adsorption and desorption. Simultaneously, Mg2Ni was detected after the 5th hydrogen desorption, and Mg2NiH4 was detected after the 5th re-hydrogen adsorption. This indicates that some NiO reacted with MgH2 to form Mg2Ni during hydrogen desorption and then transformed into Mg2NiH4 during re-hydrogen adsorption. The Mg2NiH4 phase exhibits excellent hydrogen dissociation and adsorption capabilities, acting as a highly efficient "hydrogen pump," weakening the Mg-H bond energy, providing a channel for rapid H atom migration, and accelerating H atom adsorption and desorption. After 5 hydrogen adsorption and desorption cycles, the final composition was MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo. 4 / 3 B2-MBene maintained a stable phase composition after multiple hydrogen adsorption and desorption cycles, demonstrating good cycling stability.

[0039] To further study MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The microstructure evolution of B2-MBene during ball milling and subsequent hydrogen adsorption / desorption cycles was further analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). Figure 21 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 TEM and HRTEM images of the B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after hydrogen absorption show that the catalyst and MgH2 are uniformly dispersed after hydrogen absorption, and no aggregation was observed. Further observation was conducted on MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo... 4 / 3 HRTEM images of B2-MBene reveal the interplanar spacing values ​​corresponding to different crystal planes. Interplanar spacing measurements were performed on selected regions, where interplanar spacings of 0.269 nm and 0.219 nm corresponded to (Mo... 2 / 3 Y 1 / 3 The (110) and (116) crystal planes of Mg2AlB2-MAB match, and the 0.209 nm interplanar spacing is consistent with the (200) crystal plane of NiO. Furthermore, the newly emerging 0.228 nm interplanar spacing corresponds to the (220) crystal plane of Mg2NiH4, while the 0.256 nm and 0.224 nm interplanar spacings belong to the (101) and (200) crystal planes of MgH2, respectively. These observations indicate that during mechanical ball milling, NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene is well dispersed in the MgH2 matrix, forming a rich and interconnected multiphase interface. This magnesium-based hydrogen storage material contains a large amount of MgH2 / NiO / Mo.4 / 3 B2-MBene phase boundaries, which serve as preferential channels for hydrogen transport, play a crucial role in the observed improvement in hydrogen storage performance through their synergistic effect. Figure 22 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 SAED images of the B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after hydrogen absorption show a clear set of polycrystalline diffraction ring patterns, which correspond to (Mo) 2 / 3 Y 1 / 3 (110) crystal plane of AlB2-MAB crystal, (200) crystal plane of NiO crystal, (200) crystal plane of MgH2 crystal and (422) crystal plane of Mg2NiH4.

[0040] To verify NiO@Mo 4 / 3 XPS analysis was performed on the valence state evolution of B2-MBene during the reaction process, and on magnesium-based hydrogen storage materials after ball milling, hydrogen absorption, and hydrogen release. Figure 23 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The Ni 2p XPS spectra of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after ball milling, hydrogen release, and hydrogen absorption show that the signal peaks with binding energies at 870.8 eV and 853.1 eV correspond to Ni, respectively. 2+ 2p 1 / 2 and 2p 3 / 2 The electron spin orbitals, with signal peaks at 869.2 eV and 851.7 eV, are attributed to Ni, respectively. 0 2p 1 / 2 and 2p 3 / 2 Electron spin orbitals are represented, while the signal peaks at 861.8 eV and 878.7 eV are attributed to satellite peaks. NiO in MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / 3 B2-MBene was consistently present in the sample, and during repeated hydrogen absorption and desorption, some NiO underwent a reduction reaction with MgH2, generating a small amount of Ni. 0 This further confirmed the presence of Mg2Ni and Mg2NiH4, consistent with the XRD analysis results. The aforementioned phases remained stable during mechanical ball milling and hydrogen absorption / desorption processes. Figure 24 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The Mo 3d XPS spectra of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after ball milling, hydrogen release, and hydrogen absorption show that the orbital peaks at 238.2 / 241.2 eV, 236.2 / 239.3 eV, 231.0 / 237.5 eV, and 227.5 / 234.2 eV are attributed to Mo. 4 / Mo in 3B2-MBene6+ Mo 5+ Mo 4+ And Mo-B-Tz. Figure 25 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / XPS spectra of B1s in 3B2-MBene hydrogen storage material after ball milling, hydrogen desorption, and hydrogen absorption. The XPS spectrum of B1s shows two signal peaks at 185.7 eV and 192.9 eV, which are attributed to the Mo-B-Tz and BO bonds, respectively. The BO bond originates from the slight oxidation of B during HF treatment. The chemical states of B1s and Mo3d after hydrogen absorption and desorption did not change significantly compared to those after ball milling. The presence of multivalent Mo species is beneficial to Mg. 2+ With H - The charge transfer between them helps to enhance catalytic activity.

Furthermore, the kinetic model was combined with the Arrhenius equation to plot the Arrhenius diagram, and the apparent activation energy of different systems was calculated based on the slope of the fitted linear curve. Figure 28 The Arrhenius curve for pure MgH2 in this embodiment of the invention is shown. The apparent activation energy of pure MgH2 is 133.89 ± 7.72 kJ·mol⁻¹. -1 , Figure 29 In this embodiment of the invention, MgH2 + 10 wt% NiO@Mo 4 / 3 Arrhenius curve of B2-MBene hydrogen storage material, MgH2 + 10 wt%NiO@Mo 4 / The apparent activation energy for the dehydrogenation of 3B2-MBene was significantly reduced to 98.81 ± 3.86 kJ·mol⁻¹.-1 The decrease reached 25.9%, and the correlation coefficient was [missing information]. R 2 All values ​​are greater than 0.99. This result indicates that NiO@Mo 4 / 3 The introduction of B2-MBene significantly reduced the activation energy of the dehydrogenation reaction.
