The first principle calculations are used to investigate hydrogen storage properties of MgTiO3Hx and CaTiO3Hx (x = 0, 3, 6, and 8) perovskite compounds in cubic phase (Pm3 m). In order to examine the stability of these compounds, formation enthalpies are calculated and all compounds (except MgTiO3H6 and MgTiO3H8) are found to be stable. The second order elastic constants and related polycrystalline elastic moduli (e.g., shear modulus, Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, Debye temperature, sound velocities) are determined and the results are discussed in detail. The mechanical stability determination indicates that MgTiO3, CaTiO3, and CaTiO3H6 compounds are only stable compounds and also MgTiO3 and CaTiO3H6 are ductile while CaTiO3 is a brittle material. Also, the mechanical anisotropy is discussed via two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) surfaces for mechanical stable compounds and they are found to have anisotropic behaviour (except linear compressibility for MgTiO3, CaTiO3). Electronic band structure and corresponding partial density of states (PDOS) and charge density have been plotted. Bader charge analysis have been done. MgTiO3 has metallic behaviour whereas CaTiO3 and CaTiO3H6 have semiconductor behaviour. Among all compounds, CaTiO3H6 is found to be only one that could be used in the hydrogen storage applications. For this compound, the gravimetric hydrogen storage capacity is calculated as 4.27 wt% and the hydrogen desorption temperature is obtained as 827.1 K.

Poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid) stabilized nickel(0) nanoparticles: Highly active and cost effective catalyst in hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane Sencanli, Selin; Karahan, Senem; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2013-11-13) When hydrazine borane is added to the solution of nickel(II) chloride and poly(4-styrenesulfonic acid-co-maleic acid), PSSMA, both reduction of nickel(II) ions to nickel(0) nanoparticles and hydrogen release from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane occur concomitantly at room temperature. Using the hydrogen evolution from the hydrolysis of hydrazine borane as reporter reaction provides valuable insights to the formation kinetics of nickel(0) nanoparticles. Nickel(0) nanoparticles are in situ formed from the ...
Group 4 oxides supported Rhodium(0) catalysts in hydrolytic dehydrogenation of ammonia borane Tonbul, Yalcin; Akbayrak, Serdar; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2019-05-01) Rh3+ ions are first impregnated on Group 4 metal oxides (TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2) in aqueous solution and, then reduced with aqueous solution of NaBH4 to form rhodium(0) nanoparticles (NPs) on the oxide surface. The analyses reveal that Rh(0) NPs are highly dispersed on the surface of TiO2, ZrO2, HfO2. Rh-0/MO2 (M: Ti, Zr, Hf) NPs have high activity and reusability in releasing H-2 from the hydrolysis of ammonia borane with an initial turnover frequency of 643, 198, and 188 min(-1), respectively, at 25.0 +/- 0.1 d...
Investigation of structural, electronic and lattice dynamical properties of XNiH3 (X = Li, Na and K) perovskite type hydrides and their hydrogen storage applications Gencer, Ayşenur; Surucu, Gokhan (Elsevier BV, 2019-06-07) XNiH3 (X = Li, Na, and K) perovskite type hydrides have been studied by using Density Functional Theory (DFT) and these materials are found to be stable and synthesizable. The X-ray diffraction patterns have been obtained and they indicate that all materials have the polycrystalline structure. The electronic properties have been investigated and it has been found that these structures show metallic character. The Bader partial charge analysis has also been performed. In addition, the elastic constants have ...
Hydrogen generation from the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride by using water dispersible, hydrogenphosphate-stabilized nickel(0) nanoclusters as catalyst Metin, Oender; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2007-08-01) Water-dispersible nickel(0) nanoclusters are prepared from the reduction of nickel(II) acetylacetonate by sodium borchydride in aqueous solution and stabilized by hydrogerphosphate anion. Hydrogenphosphate-stabilized nickel(0) nanoclusters were characterized by using XPS, FT-IR, UV-Vis and NMR spectroscopic methods. As the first example of water-dispersible nickel(0) nanoclusters, they were employed as catalyst in the hydrolysis of sodium borohydride. Hydrogenphosphate-stabilized nickel(0) nanoclusters were...
Ammonia borane as hydrogen storage materials AKBAYRAK, SERDAR; Özkar, Saim (Elsevier BV, 2018-10-04) Ammonia borane is an appropriate solid hydrogen storage material because of its high hydrogen content of 19.6% wt., high stability under ambient conditions, nontoxicity, and high solubility in common solvents. Hydrolysis of ammonia borane appears to be the most efficient way of releasing hydrogen stored in it. Since ammonia borane is relatively stable against hydrolysis in aqueous solution, its hydrolytic dehydrogenation can be achieved at an appreciable rate only in the presence of suitable catalyst at roo...
