摘要
Hydrogen energy is expected to be an“ideal fuel”in the era of decarbonization.The discovery,de-velopment,and modification of high-performance hydrogen storage materials are the keys to the fu-ture development of solid-state hydrogen storage and hydrogen energy utilization.Magnesium hydride(MgH_(2)),with its high hydrogen storage capacity,abundant natural reserves,and environmental friend-liness,has been extensively researched.Herein,we briefly summarize the typical structure and hy-drogenation/dehydrogenation reaction mechanism of MgH_(2)and provide a comprehensive overview of strategies to effectively tune the thermodynamics and kinetics of Mg-based materials,such as alloy-ing,nanosizing,the introduction of additives,and composite modification.With substantial efforts,great achievements have been achieved,such as lower absorption/desorption temperatures and better cy-cling stability.Nonetheless,some pivotal issues remain to be addressed,such as unfavorable hydro-genation/dehydrogenation factors,harsh conditions,slow kinetics,incomplete dehydrogenation,low hy-drogen purity,expensive catalysts,and a lack of valid exploration of mechanisms in the hydrogena-tion/dehydrogenation process.Lastly,some future development prospects of MgH_(2)in energy-efficient conversion and storage have been presented,including advanced manufacturing ways,stabilization of nanostructures,the introduction of additives combined with structural modification,and utilization of advanced characterization techniques.
