Abstract

A kind of promising hydrogen storage material-hydrazine bisborane (N ₂H₄(BH₃)₂, HBB) is synthesized by a typical chemical method. HBB exhibits relatively low dehydrogenation temperature (around 100 °C), effective prevention of any unwanted gaseous products, such as ammonia, diborane, confirming a very high hydrogen release purity of >99%. The activation energy (E_a) of the first-step dehydrogenation of HBB is calculated to be 106.4 kJ/mol using Kissinger's method. According to the ¹¹B NMR and FT-IR results, the thermal decomposition of HBB was determined to produce [HBN₂BH]₂ dimers, in which the coordination environment of B atoms located in the formation of HBN₂. © 2011, Hydrogen Energy Publications, LLC.
