The use of Mg-based materials as solid-state hydrogen storage materials can provide a viable solution to the bottleneck hindering the development of hydrogen energy.However,it is necessary to address their excessively stable thermodynamic properties and sluggish kinetic performances.In this study,we prepared a Ni-N-C ternary nanocomposite(designated as Ni@NC)catalyst using Ni-based metal-organic frameworks(Ni-MOFs)as a precursor for catalytic MgH2 hydrogen storage properties.The Ni@NC cata-lyst exhibited excellent promotion effects on the hydrogen absorption and desorption kinetics and the cycling stability of the Mg-based materials.Notably,the composite exhibited room-temperature hydrogen absorption initiation and an onset dehydrogenation temperature of 188 ℃,with complete hydrogenation achieved after holding at 100 ℃ for 60 min.After undergoing 100 cycles of absorption/dehydrogenation,the capacity retention rate was 99.5%.The differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)test results indi-cated that the re-hydrogenated MgH2-Ni@NC composites consist of Mg2NiH4 and MgH2,with corre-sponding dehydrogenation activation energies of 75.2 and 82.9 kJ mol-1 respectively.The mechanism analysis revealed that Ni@NC was uniformly distributed on the MgH2 surface.During dehydrogena-tion/rehydrogenation,Mg2NiH4/Mg2Ni"hydrogen pumping"by Ni and MgH2/Mg occurred in situ,the presence of N-C effectively inhibited the expansion of MgH2/Mg,and the enhanced charge transfer ef-fect was facilitated by N in the Ni@NC composite,synergistically enhancing the kinetic performance and cycling stability of MgH2.
