Nanocrystalline Al-Mg alloys for hydrogen storage Fereshteh Ebrahimi, University of Florida, DMR Motivation and Objectives The expected scarcity of fossil fuels in the future has become a driving force for the research in many non-conventional sources of energy. Transportation sector is a major consumer of energy and counts for almost two-thirds of the U.S. oil consumption. Hydrogen storage is one of the main issues in implementation of on-board fuel cells. Hydrogenation of Al-Mg alloys can lead to the formation of three hydrides: AlH 3, Mg(AlH 4 ) 2 and MgH 2. Our objectives are to fabricate nanocrystalline Al-Mg alloy powders as hydrogen storage materials and study their hydrogenation/dehydrogenation characteristics. Educational Component  Graduate Students: The following students were trained on using several advanced equipments and in conducting research.  Sankara Sarma V. Tatiparti  Mahesh Tanniru  Undergraduate students (REU Program): The following students conducted research for three months during summer semester,  Chamoria clark – A female minority student who is continuing conducting research in our lab.  Nathan Hicks – A senior at MSE/UF. Collaborators  Dr. Darlene Slattery, co-PI, FSEC, Florida  Dr. Wu, Environmental Eng. Dept., University of Florida
