Innovative ways to turn nanoparticles into simple hydrogen storage containers have expanded the market for the product name

An innovative approach could turn nanoparticles into simple hydrogen storage containers. The highly volatile gas is considered a promising future energy carrier for climate-friendly fuels such as planes, ships and trucks, as well as for climate-friendly steel and cement production -- depending on how the hydrogen is produced. However, storing hydrogen is expensive: either keep it in high-pressure tanks at temperatures as high as 700 bar, or liquefy it, which means cooling it to minus 253 degrees Celsius. Both processes consume extra energy. A team led by Andreas Stierle of DESY has laid the groundwork for an alternative approach: storing hydrogen in tiny nanoparticles, just 1.2 nanometers in diameter, made of the precious metal palladium. Palladium ability to absorb hydrogen like a sponge has been known for some time. "However, until now, getting hydrogen out of the material again has been a problem," Stierle explained. "That is why we are trying palladium particles that are only one nanometer in diameter." A nanometer is one-millionth of a millimeter.

To make sure these tiny particles are strong enough, they are stabilized by a core made of the rare precious metal iridium. In addition, they are attached to graphene scaffolds, which are extremely thin layers of carbon. "We were able to attach palladium particles to graphene at intervals of just two and a half nanometers," reports Stierle, head of the DESY Nanolab. "This leads to a regular, periodic structure." The team, which also included researchers from the Universities of Cologne and Hamburg, published their findings in ACS Nano, a journal of the American Chemical Society (ACS). DESY X-ray source, PETRA III, was used to see what happens when palladium particles come into contact with hydrogen: essentially, the hydrogen sticks to the surface of the nanoparticle, with almost no hydrogen seeping into the nanoparticle. Nanoparticles can be depicted as chocolate: an iridium nut in the center is coated with palladium, not marzipan, and the chocolate is coated with hydrogen. Only a small amount of heat is added to recover stored hydrogen; Hydrogen is quickly released from the particle surface because the gas molecules do not need to be extruded from inside the cluster. "Next, we want to know what storage density can be achieved using this new method," Stierle said. However, there are still some challenges to overcome before they can be used in practice. For example, other forms of carbon structure may be more suitable as carriers than graphene -- experts are considering using carbon sponges that contain micropores. Large amounts of palladium nanoparticles should fit inside.

New materials for a sustainable future you should know about the molybdenum disilicide.

Historically, knowledge and the production of new materials molybdenum disilicide have contributed to human and social progress, from the refining of copper and iron to the manufacture of semiconductors on which our information society depends today. However, many materials and their preparation methods have caused the environmental problems we face.

About 90 billion tons of raw materials -- mainly metals, minerals, fossil matter and biomass -- are extracted each year to produce raw materials. That number is expected to double between now and 2050. Most of the molybdenum disilicide raw materials extracted are in the form of non-renewable substances, placing a heavy burden on the environment, society and climate. The molybdenum disilicide materials production accounts for about 25 percent of greenhouse gas emissions, and metal smelting consumes about 8 percent of the energy generated by humans.

The molybdenum disilicide industry has a strong research environment in electronic and photonic materials, energy materials, glass, hard materials, composites, light metals, polymers and biopolymers, porous materials and specialty steels. Hard materials (metals) and specialty steels now account for more than half of Swedish materials sales (excluding forest products), while glass and energy materials are the strongest growth areas.

New materials including the molybdenum disilicide market trend is one of the main directions of science and technology development in the 21st century

With the development of science and technology, people develop new materials molybdenum disilicide on the basis of traditional materials and according to the research results of modern science and technology. New materials are divided into metal materials, inorganic non-metal materials (such as ceramics, gallium arsenide semiconductor, etc.), organic polymer materials, advanced composite materials. According to the molybdenum disilicide material properties, it is divided into structural materials and functional materials. Structural materials mainly use mechanical and physical and chemical properties of materials to meet the performance requirements of high strength, high stiffness, high hardness, high-temperature resistance, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, radiation resistance and so on; Functional materials mainly use the electrical, magnetic, acoustic, photo thermal and other effects of materials to achieve certain functions, such as semiconductor materials, magnetic materials, photosensitive materials, thermal sensitive materials, stealth materials and nuclear materials for atomic and hydrogen bombs.

One of the main directions of molybdenum disilicide science and technology development in the 21st century is the research and application of new materials. The research of new materials is a further advance in the understanding and application of material properties.
