In the 1950s and 1960s, most metal hydride experiments focused on zirconium hydride, a more common, less expensive metal that already was being used as a cladding material for nuclear reactors in ...

NUS chemists have discovered new reaction pathways using "acidic" metal hydrides to access industrially important chemical complexes.

The cooling power of the metal hydride refrigeration system is based on the temperature- and pressure-dependent equilibrium reaction between hydrogen and a metal hydride, which provides ...

The present invention is based on and takes advantage of the physical properties of a fissile metal hydride, such as uranium hydride, which serves as a combination fuel and moderator. The invention is ...

University of Groningen physicists have visualized hydrogen at the titanium/titanium hydride interface using a transmission electron microscope. Using a new technique, they succeeded in ...

Nickel metal hydride batteries are increasingly being used in hybrid vehicles.The wide temperature range between -30 °C to + 75 °C and rapid charging capacity made these batteries ideal for the ...

Nickel-metal hydride battery is a type of rechargeable battery that operates through a chemical reaction from nickel-oxide hydroxide and hydrogen-absorbing alloy.

Thorium hydrides could also be used. A Thorium molten salt reactor could achieve nearly 100% burnup of the fuel. I have looked at the patent for the Hyperion reactor. It is different from regular ...

One of his earlier studies, " Optimization of Internal Cooling Fins for Metal Hydride Reactors," was published in Energies 2016, and he has since focused his research on improving the efficiency ...

Rare earth metal hydrides on their own, however, do not undergo reversible hydrogen addition and release, the cornerstone of hydrogen storage.
