Method of rapidly carrying out a hydrogenation of a hydrogen storage
material "Disclosed is a method for rapidly carrying
out a hydrogenation of a material capable of absorbing hydrogen.
It was discovered that when a powder of a material capable of
absorbing hydrogen is ground under a hydrogen pressure, not at
room temperature but at a higher temperature (about 300° C.
in the case of magnesium) and in the presence of a hydrogenation
activator such as graphite and optionally a catalyst, it is possible
to transform completely the powder of this material into a hydride.
Such a transformation is achieved in a period of time less than
1 hour whereas the known methods call for periods of time as much
as 10 times longer. This is an unexpected result which gives rise
to a considerable reduction in the cost of manufacture of an hydride,
particularly MgH2." Hydro-Quebec

Hydrogen storage device for avoiding powder dispersion "having
a magnetic hydrogen-absorbing material, prevents powder, generated
as the hydrogen-absorbing material releases and absorbs hydrogen,
from clogging pipelines, a design that can increase the gas flux
and work efficiency, thus extending the device lifetime"
