Facile synthesis of nanoporous Mg crystalline structure by organic solvent-based reduction for solid-state hydrogen storage.

ABSTRACT: Nanoporous metals have unique potentials for energy applications with a high surface area despite the percolating structure. Yet, a highly corrosive environment is required for the synthesis of porous metals with conventional dealloying methods, limiting the large-scale fabrication of porous structures for reactive metals. In this study, we synthesize a highly reactive Mg nanoporous system through a facile organic solution-based approach without any harsh etching. The synthesized nanoporous Mg also demonstrates enhanced hydrogen sorption kinetics and reveals unique kinetic features compared to Mg nanoparticles. The well-crystallized Mg nanoporous structure exhibits crystalline facet-dependent hydrogen sorption characteristics, featuring gradually improved hydrogen storage capacity up to 6
