Abstract
- Hydrogen generation from the catalyzed deliquescence/hydrolysis of ammonia borane (AB) using the Ni–Co catalyst supported on the graphene oxide (Ni–Co/r-GO catalyst) under the conditions of limited water supply was studied with the molar feed ratio of water to ammonia borane (denoted as H 2 O/AB) at 2.02, 3.97 and 5.93, respectively. The conversion efficiency of ammonia borane to hydrogen was estimated both from the cumulative volume of the hydrogen gas generated and the conversion of boron chemistry in the hydrolysates analyzed by the solid-state 11 B NMR. The conversion efficiency of ammonia borane could reach nearly 100% under excess water dosage, that is, H 2 O/AB = 3.97 and 5.93. Notably, the hydrogen storage capacity could reach as high as 6.5 wt.% in the case with H 2 O/AB = 2.02. The hydrolysates of ammonia borane in the presence of Ni–Co/r-GO catalyst were mainly the mixture of boric acid and metaborate according to XRD, FT-IR and solid-state 11 B NMR analyses.
