A study was carried out to examine the hydrogenation behavior of 300 nm, Pd-capped, Mg-Cu thin films with Cu contents of 5, 10 and 15 at.%. The films were produced via thermal evaporation of Mg and Cu co-deposited onto glass substrates at two different temperatures: 298 and 223 K. The samples produced at 298 K were all crystalline, the structure being refined with increase in the Cu content. The films deposited at 223 K developed structures that were either refined, i.e. Mg(95)Cu(5); or amorphous, i.e. Mg(90)Cu(10) and Mg(85)Cu(15). The hydrogen sorption of the films was followed by resistance measurements, with the samples heated isochronally, initially under hydrogen and then under vacuum. The resistance data have shown that an increase in Cu content, or a decrease in the substrate temperature, improves the sorption characteristics of the films by reducing both the absorption and desorption temperatures. The lowest desorption temperature achieved was 323 K. The study suggests that an amorphous alloy of Mg(90)Cu(10) could be used as hydrogen storage medium as it would store 5.9 wt.% hydrogen in near-ambient conditions and could desorp it at around 100 degrees C. 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Hydrogen absorption in magnesium based crystalline thin films
Akyildiz, Hasan; Ozenbas, Macit; Öztürk, Tayfur (2006-08-01)
A study is carried out for hydrogenation of Mg based thin films produced via thermal evaporation. Films produced were pure Mg, Mg capped with Au-Pd, Mg-Cu co-deposited and Mg-Cu multilayered. The films under the experimental conditions employed were crystalline with columnar grains with some degree of preferred orientation. In multi-component systems, the films in the as-deposited state were made of individual elements, but upon hydrogenation at temperatures greater than 473K, the elements react with each o...
Hydrogen storage in magnesium based thin films
Akyıldız, Hasan; Öztürk, Tayfur; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2010)
A study was carried out for the production of Mg-based thin films which can absorb and desorb hydrogen near ambient conditions, with fast kinetics. For this purpose, two deposition units were constructed; one high vacuum (HV) and the other ultra high vacuum (UHV) deposition system. The HV system was based on a pyrex bell jar and had two independent evaporation sources. The unit was used to deposit films of Mg, Mg capped with Pd and Au-Pd as well as Mg-Cu both in co-deposited and multilayered form within a t...
Thickness effects in hydrogen sorption of Mg/Pd thin films
Gharavi, Ayshe G.; Akyildiz, Hasan; Öztürk, Tayfur (2013-12-15)
Mg thin films with various thicknesses ranging from 50 to 1000 nm capped with Pd have been prepared by thermal evaporation and their hydrogen sorption properties were examined following the electrical resistance change. The study showed that the hydrogenation and dehydrogenation temperatures correlate with the film thickness, thinner films reacting with hydrogen at reduced temperatures. It is concluded that films thinner than 200 nm react fully with hydrogen, while a considerable portion of the thicker film...
Hydrogen storage capability of carbon nanotube Be@C-120
Turker, L; Eroglu, I; Yucel, M; Gündüz, Ufuk (2004-12-01)
PM3 (RHF) type semiempirical quantum chemical calculations have been carried out on (nH(2) + Be)@C-120 Systems where C-120 is a capped tube and n less than or equal to 15. The results indicate that all these systems are stable but endothermic in nature. (7H(2) + Be)@C-120 system has the lowest heat of formation value.

Hydrogen-bonded multilayers of a neutral polymer and a polyphenol
Erel Göktepe, İrem (2008-06-10)
We report on association of tannic acid (TA) with neutral or charged polymers in solution and at surfaces and contrast hydrogen-bonded and electrostatically associated polymer/TA complexes and TA/polymer layer-by-layer (LbL) films as per their stability in the pH scale. The neutral polymers used for hydrogen bonding with TA were poly(N-vinylcaprolactam) (PVCL), poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVPON), poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), or poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), and the polymer used to explore electrostatic...
