Final Activity Report Summary - HYTRAIN (Hydrogen storage research training network)
HYTRAIN has made considerable contributions in both these areas. In porous materials, considerable progress has been recorded in producing very large surface area carbons and in understanding the physisorption process in high area metal oxide framework compounds. In solid hydrides progress has been established in understanding the Mg-Tm intermetallic hydrides and in the process of hydrogen cycling of the Li3N/Li2NH/LiNH2 system where a continuous phase change has been established. Important progress has also been achieved towards the engineering of storage tanks for materials which can already be upscaled.
