Metal hydride – Graphene composites for hydrogen based energy storage

Abstract

The paper presents a review of the authors’ studies of advanced functional composites of graphene based materials with metals, alloys, intermetallic compounds and their hydrides, and on the creation on their basis of hydrogen-storage materials for a compact and safe hydrogen storage, electrode materials for nickelmetal hydride batteries, highly efficient catalysts for the hydrogenation of metals and organic compounds as well as their integration into the hydrogen energy systems for the backup electric power and for the H-based energy storage
