Role of additives in LiBH4–MgH2 reactive hydride composites for sorption kinetics [PDF]
The influence of additives on the reaction kinetics and microstructure refinement in LiBH4–MgH2 composites is investigated in detail. Indications of the rate-limiting processes during the reactions are obtained by comparison of the measured reaction kinetics with simulations with one specific rate-limiting process.
