Shield materials recommended for space power nuclear reactors [PDF]

open access: yes
Lithium hydride is recommended for neutron attenuation and depleted uranium is recommended for gamma ray attenuation. For minimum shield weights these materials must be arranged in alternate layers to attenuate the secondary gamma rays efficiently.

Hydrogen storage properties of the 2LiBH4–MgH2 reactive hydride composite doped with Ti additives and Al

open access: yes, 2013
The practical application of hydrogen as new energy vector presents several problems that have not been solved yet. One of the major constraints is the lack of a safe, compact and efficient way to store hydrogen, mainly for mobile applications. Solid–hydrogen storage is one of the potential solutions.

Study of the 2LiBH4 + MgH2 reactive hydride composite doped with Fe and F3Fe for hydrogen storage

open access: yes, 2010
LiBH4 is a promising material to store hydrogen because of its interesting characteristics. It has high hydrogen gravimetric capacity (18.4 wt%) which is far above of the target established by the International Energy Agency (5.0 wt% of hydrogen) and low weight [1–3].

Integrating agro‐residue valorization and clean hydrogen production: coconut fiber‐based catalysts for NaBH4 hydrolysis

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract A novel phosphoric acid‐treated green coconut fiber (GCF‐C) was developed as a catalyst for hydrogen production from the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4). Characterization techniques confirmed structural modifications, including X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared, and ...
