US Patent 7166150 Scaffolded borazane-lithium hydride hydrogen storage materials

In one aspect, the invention provides a hydrogen storage composite formed of a mesoporous scaffolding material and a hydrogen storage composition comprising precursors that react to form quarternary B—H—Li—N composition. In another aspect, the invention provides a process for forming hydrogen storage material. In each aspect, a high portion of hydrogen is released as hydrogen gas and a lesser portion of hydrogen is released as a hydrogen-containing byproduct.
