Abstract

Abstract--This review addresses the question of using magnesium and magnesium-based alloys as "rechargeable hydrogen storage" media. The effect of addition of organic compounds as well as other metals (both transition and non-transition elements) on the sorption characteristics of magnesium is considered in detail. The current status of information in this field is reviewed with a view to evaluating the potential of these materials for use as hydrogen storage media in vehicular applications.
