Abstract

This manuscript investigates the thermal desorption behaviour of MgH2/Mg(OH)2 composites by means of thermal desorption spectroscopy. Besides the H2O and H2 desorption events due to Mg(OH)2 dehydration and MgH2 decomposition reactions, respectively, two additional H2 desorption peaks arise at lower temperatures. These peaks are related to solid-state reactions between magnesium hydride and magnesium hydroxide through different channels. The low temperature H2 peak (∼150 °C) is related to reaction between a H atom diffusing from MgH2 and a surface OH group, whereas the intermediate temperature H2 peak (∼350 °C) is due to an interface reaction between the hydride and the hydroxide. The present work supports the theory that the onset of the H2 desorption coming from MgH2 decomposition is controlled by an incubation process, consisting in the formation of catalytically active vacancies at the MgO/Mg(OH)2 surface by dehydration. Possible ways to improve the H2 desorption kinetics from MgH2 are discussed in the light of the results obtained.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
