AB  - Alkali metal amidoboranes have been intensively investigated as potentially highly attractive candidates for solid-state hydrogen storage. In this family, sodium amidoborane NaNH2BH3 occupies a special place, due to its unique properties. From one side, its high hydrogen content (9.4 wt.%) and low dehydrogenation temperature (89 °C) make it very perspective in this regard. However, detailed studies revealed a number of very serious drawbacks, which consequently led to a dramatic reduction of the initial research hype, although potentially very interesting innovative aspects of its use beyond hydrogen storage have also been discovered. However, a critical insight to the entire field of metal amidoborane chemistry, especially in the technologically relevant context of solid-state hydrogen storage, is lacking. Thus, by this review, we want to fill this gap. Accordingly, this review brings a detailed and critical comparative discussion of synthesis and chemical properties of sodium amidoborane. They are considered not exclusive through technological, but also environmentally relevant optics with respect of their utilization in real-world advanced and sustainable energy systems.

AB  - The maximization of the number of exposed edges of layered MoS2-type transition metal dichalcogenides of general formula MX2 (M = Mo, W; X = S, Se) is difficult yet meaningful way to improve their electrochemical and electrocatalytic performance. In this work, an all-solid ball milling method for simultaneous introduction of defects and their hybridization through binding of ammonia borane (NH3BH3) to defect sites of MX2 is demonstrated. The milling conditions leads to partial separation and nanosizing of MX2 layers, simultaneously extensively introducing defects (cracks, vacancies, strains, voids etc.), while the detailed analysis revealed the functionalization of the material by binding of NH3BH3 to defect sites, which results in highly improved electrocatalytic performance of thus obtained composites with respect to MX2 for hydrogen evolution reaction. The mechanochemical approach thus enables preparation of MoS2-type materials with improved, highly tunable activity, potentially relevant for energy conversion and storage.

AB  - Ammonia borane – AB (formula: NH3-BH3) has been known for its extraordinary gravimetric hydrogen capacity (nearly 20 wt.%) and is therefore considered as promising hydrogen storage material. However, there are several drawbacks to overcome, namely dehydrogenation kinetics is rather poor, and three-step desorption releases contaminated hydrogen with each subsequent step requiring significantly higher temperature. In addition, there are detrimental by-products (e.g., borasine, diborane) that also limit its practical application. Eliminating at least borasine release is possible through the reaction of alkali metal (M=Li, Na) with AB and producing monometallic amidoborane salts MAB. In this paper, electronic structure calculations and the analysis of charge density topology of pure AB, lithium, and sodium amidoboranes were performed in order to investigate cohesion and bonding nature. The influence of the specific alkali metal substitution will be assessed using calculated IR and Raman spectra and analysis of vibrational bands in comparison to pure AB.

AB  - Metallic amidoboranes are widely investigated candidates for solid-state hydrogen storage, and much focus shifted recently toward bimetallic amidoboranes. Bimetallic amidoboranes are expected to introduce novel and enhanced physicochemical properties regarding storage and stability. However, these materials are still scarce and mostly grouped around magnesium- or aluminum-containing compounds. We present here a rapid and green mechanochemical solvent-free synthesis of two novel calcium-containing bimetallic amidoboranes, Li2Ca(NH2BH3)4 and Na2Ca(NH2BH3)4, from metal hydrides and ammonia borane. The insight into mechanochemical syntheses is provided by the in situ tandem synchrotron X-ray diffraction and thermal monitoring. The in situ data reveal how the choice of alkali metal hydride governs the course of reactions and their thermal profiles. In situ monitoring of thermal dehydrogenation of these materials is conducted by mass spectrometry and infrared spectroscopy, showing how the course of thermal decomposition varies depending on the structure of the amidoborane, resulting however in the same final products. These new hydrogen-rich bimetallic amidoboranes are structurally characterized by high-resolution powder X-ray diffraction, and they both show potential for hydrogen storage applications: high theoretical gravimetric capacities and low desorption temperatures of hydrogen without the significant presence of harmful gases. We also show how the choice of the milling reactor material can be decisive for the efficiency and overall success of the mechanochemical synthetic procedure, which may impact the design of milling syntheses for other thermally labile chemical systems. © 2021 American Chemical Society.

AB  - The influence of different milling conditions obtained using two high-energy mills on hydrogen desorption from MgH2-WO3 composites was investigated. The morphology, particle and crystallite size were studied as a function of milling speed, vial's volume, and ball-to-powder ratio. The vial's fill level, the number, and type of milling balls and additive's content kept constant. Changes in morphology and microstructure were correlated to desorption properties of materials. Higher milling speed reduced particle size but, there is no significant crystallite size reduction. On the other hand, additive distribution is similar regardless of the energy input. It has been noticed that different energy input on milling blend, which is the result of combined effects of above-mentioned factors, reflects on desorption temperature but not on the kinetics of desorption. In fact, desorption mechanism changes from 2D to 3D growth with constant nucleation rate, despite obtained changes in microstructure or chemical composition of the material. © 2019 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC

AB  - The present work reports a new procedure for solid state synthesis of sodium amidoborane (NaAB) by mechanochemical (MC) reaction between as-received NaH and MC pretreated AB. Ball milling (BM) method was used for this purpose. First, pretreated AB was obtained by BM of as-received AB for 4.5 min. Second, powder of pretreated AB was mixed with as-received NaH and conducted to BM. Milling times were from 0 to 200 min: 5, 10, 30, 50, 100 and 200 min, respectively. By fixing the parameters of the milling conditions, only the influence of milling time on NaAB formation was followed. FTIR and XRD methods are used for analysis of powders after milling. We proved, by MC modification of pure AB, that the reaction rate between AB and NaH could be restricted to the interface between newly formed larger AB and small NaH particles. In such a way we obtained much better control of the reaction system with very accurate determination of reaction steps. Depending on the milling times, reaction process can be separated in three phases: i) 0–30 min phase - reactant and product are present; ii) 50–100 min phase - formed NaAB is almost without other pure; iii) 200 min phase - NaAB is totally decomposed. By this synthesis procedure we produced, for the first time, pure NaAB almost without any impurities. © 2019 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC

AB  - Here we describe real-time, in situ monitoring of mechanochemical solid-state metathesis between silver nitrate and the entire series of sodium halides, on the basis of tandem powder X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy monitoring. The mechanistic monitoring reveals that reactions of AgNO3 with NaX (X = Cl, Br, I) differ in reaction paths, with only the reaction with NaBr providing the NaNO3 and AgX products directly. The reaction with NaI revealed the presence of a novel, short-lived intermediate phase, while the reaction with NaCl progressed the slowest through the well-defined Ag2ClNO3 intermediate double salt. While the corresponding iodide and bromide double salts were not observed as intermediates, all three are readily prepared as pure compounds by milling equimolar mixtures of AgX and AgNO3. The in situ observation of reactive intermediates in these simple metathesis reactions reveals a surprising resemblance of reactions involving purely ionic components to those of molecular organic solids and cocrystals. This study demonstrates the potential of in situ reaction monitoring for mechanochemical reactions of ionic compounds as well as completes the application of these techniques to all major compound classes.

AB  - For the first time, in situ monitoring of uninterrupted mechanochemical synthesis of two bimetallic amidoboranes, M2Mg(NH2BH3)(4) (M=Li, Na), by means of Raman spectroscopy, has been applied. This approach allowed real-time observation of key intermediate phases, and a straightforward follow-up of the reaction course. Detailed analysis of time-dependent spectra revealed a two-step mechanism through MNH2BH3 center dot NH3BH3 adducts as key intermediate phases which further reacted with MgH2, giving M2Mg(NH2BH3)(4) as final products. The intermediates partially take a competitive pathway toward the oligomeric M(BH3NH2BH2NH2BH3) phases. The crystal structure of the novel bimetallic amidoborane Li2Mg(NH2BH3)(4) was solved from high-resolution powder diffraction data and showed an analogous metal coordination to Na2Mg(NH2BH3)(4), but a significantly different crystal packing. Li2Mg(NH2BH3)(4) thermally dehydrogenates releasing highly pure H-2 in the amount of 7 wt.%, and at a lower temperature then its sodium analogue, making it significantly more viable for practical applications.

AB  - Magnesium hydride, as hydrogen storage material, meets the requirements such as high gravimetric hydrogen capacity (7,6 wt%), low cost and weight, abundance and H2 absorption/desorption cycling possibility. Given that the oxide additives show the good impact on desorption properties, mechanical milling of MgH2 with addition of 5, 10 and 15% wt. WO3 was performed. The microstructure and morphology of composites were analysed by XRD, PSD and SEM and correlated to hydrogen desorption properties which have been investigated by DSC. The results have shown that WO3 has a positive effect on the desorption kinetics as well as on the change of the desorption mechanism.

AB  - In the framework of the European Cooperation in Science and Technology (COST) Action MP1103 Nanostructured Materials for Solid-State Hydrogen Storage were synthesized, characterized and modeled. This Action dealt with the state of the art of energy storage and set up a competitive and coordinated network capable to define new and unexplored ways for Solid State Hydrogen Storage by innovative and interdisciplinary research within the European Research Area. An important number of new compounds have been synthesized: metal hydrides, complex hydrides, metal halide ammines and amidoboranes. Tuning the structure from bulk to thin film, nanoparticles and nanoconfined composites improved the hydrogen sorption properties and opened the perspective to new technological applications. Direct imaging of the hydrogenation reactions and in situ measurements under operando conditions have been carried out in these studies. Computational screening methods allowed the prediction of suitable compounds for hydrogen storage and the modeling of the hydrogen sorption reactions on mono-, bi-, and three-dimensional systems.
