This project aims to study the conformation of the metal hydride based on magnesium for the conformation in small cylinders to be used in the manufacture of a metal hydride tank for hydrogen storage and so measures of thermal conductivity is a fundamental part. For the thermal conductivity measurement a system will be set up and preliminary thermal conductivity measurements will be evalua…
Materials like magnesium-based nanocomposites have been studied for hydrogen storage due to high storage capacity at relatively low temperatures and rapid kinetics of absorption and desorption. The MgH2 hydride presents high volumetric and gravimetric storage capacity, and thus meets the main requirements for the storage of H2, offering efficiency and safety. In recent years, research-bas…
The use of magnesium and its alloys for hydrogen storage has been investigated intensively in recent decades by economic and security reasons. In the present project will be processed powders of magnesium and magnesium hydride by high energy milling to obtain nanoparticules. After this, will then be cold rolled with the incorporation of powders in ductile metals. The evaluation process…

The magnesium hydride stands out as a means of store hydrogen in solid form because it has low cost and at the same time, high volumetric energy density (1.5 to 1.6 kWh/l). However, the technological application of this material has been frustrated by the need for high temperatures of hydrogen absorption and desorption and the slow kinetics with which these processes occur. Alloys and com…
