The composite is able to absorb 4.3 wt% of hydrogen in 60 min instead of 1.1 wt% for the as-milled Mg H_2. Meanwhile, the composite is able to release 5.3 wt% of hydrogen in 17 min compared to 1.9 wt% by the as-milled Mg H_2 at 320 ℃. The calculated Eaof the Mg H_2-10 wt% SrTiO_3 is 109 k J/mol, which is 26.3 kJ/mol lower than the calculated Eaof the as-milled MgH_2. The Sr TiO_3 is not decomposed during the ball milling and the re/dehydrogenation processes. The catalytic effect shown by the SrTiO_3 is owing to its ability to change the physical structure of the MgH_2 particles during the ball milling process.展开更多
