Short-Range Nanoreaction Effect on the Hydrogen Desorption Behaviors of the MgH-Ni@C Composite.

Doping a catalyst can efficiently improve the hydrogen reaction kinetics of MgH. However, the hydrogen desorption behaviors are complicated in different MgH-catalyst systems. Here, a carbon-encapsulated nickel (Ni@C) core-shell catalyst is synthesized to improve the hydrogen storage properties of MgH.
