The coaddition of KH and RbH significantly improves the hydrogen storage properties of the Mg(NH2)2-2LiH system. An Mg(NH2)2-2LiH-0.04KH-0.04RbH composite was able to reversibly store 5.2 wt % H2 when the dehydrogenation operates at 130 掳C and the hydrogenation operates at 120 掳C. The isothermal dehydrogenation rate at 130 掳C was approximately 43 times that of a pristine sample. During ball-milling, KH reacts with RbH to form a K(Rb)H solid solution. Upon heating, RbH first separates from the K(Rb)H solid solution and participates in the first step of dehydrogenation reaction, and then the remaining KH participates in the second dehydrogenation reaction. The presence of RbH and KH provide synergetic effects, which improve the thermodynamics and kinetics of hydrogen storage in the Mg(NH2)2-2LiH system. In particular, more than 93% of the hydrogen storage capacity (4.4 wt %) remains after cycling a sample with 0.04 mol of KH and RbH for 50 cycles, indicating notably better cycling stability compared with any presently known Li鈥揗g鈥揘鈥揌 systems.
