Metal Hydrides

Introduction
Metal hydrides are solid materials that absorb and release hydrogen gas, making them a compact and safe option for hydrogen storage.

🧠 What It Means

  • Hydrogen is stored by bonding with metal alloys.

  • Reversible absorption/desorption makes it reusable.

  • Ideal for mobile and portable hydrogen storage.

Key Challenges

  • Slow kinetics and heat management during hydrogen release.

  • High weight-to-storage ratio compared to other methods.

  • Alloy degradation after many cycles.

🦁 Muzaffar’s Comment

“Metal hydrides are like hydrogen sponges — soak it up, squeeze it out, over and over.”

🦉 Sameer’s Comment

“Safer than tanks and more compact — metal hydrides show how smart storage can be.”
