  1. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds Earle Ryba

  2. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds Need way to store and transport hydrogen in future ‘hydrogen society’

  3. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds Need way to store and transport hydrogen in future ‘hydrogen society’ As gas? – very hi press.

  4. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds Need way to store and transport hydrogen in future ‘hydrogen society’ As gas? – very hi press. As liq.? – very low temp.

  5. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds Need way to store and transport hydrogen in future ‘hydrogen society’ As gas? – very hi press. As liq.? – very low temp. As solid? – is this possible?

  6. Many intermetallic compounds absorb significant quantities of H2 Storage of 4 kg H2

  7. For example – LaNi5 & LaNi5H7 structures – from neutron diffraction studies Ni La possible H sites

  8. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds H atom jumps in LaNi5

  9. Crystal Chemistry of Hydrogen in Intermetallic Compounds H atom sites in TaV2

  10. What needs to be done? • For known hydrogen storage intermetallic compounds • & their hydrides:

  11. What needs to be done? • For known hydrogen storage intermetallic compounds • & their hydrides: • calculate bond distances & angles, hydrogen interstice sizes, CN #s, possible (hybrid) bond orbitals

  12. What needs to be done? • For known hydrogen storage intermetallic compounds • & their hydrides: • calculate bond distances & angles, hydrogen interstice sizes, CN #s, possible (hybrid) bond orbitals • 2. investigate effects of atom type to which H is • bonded, alloy substitution, thermal motion

  13. What needs to be done? • For known hydrogen storage intermetallic compounds • & their hydrides: • calculate bond distances & angles, hydrogen interstice sizes, CN #s, possible (hybrid) bond orbitals • 2. investigate effects of atom type to which H is • bonded, alloy non-stoichiometry, thermal motion • 3. look for correlations, trends, directions for possible • new hydrogen storage materials, hydrides for future • detailed structure studies
