Hot article: Releasing 17.8 wt% H2 from lithium borohydride ammoniate

In this paper, Ping Chen et al. have shown the release of 17.8 wt% of hydrogen in 135–250 °C in a closed vessel, from the Co-catalyzed Li(NH3)4/3BH4.

The presence of the nanosized Co catalyst is shown to effectively promote the release of hydrogen.
