MAPS Investigation of the decompositon of LiNH2BH3
Ammonia borane, NH3BH3, has been extensively studied as a potential hydrogen storage material because of its high hydrogen content (19.6wt%) and relatively low decomposition... -
The structural phase transitions of Ammonia Borane, an invetigation of the dy...
Ammonia Borane (AB), NH3BH3, was first synthesised in the 1950s and has now become the focus of a world wide research program with regards to its potential as a hydrogen store.... -
Structural studies and decomposition of nanostructured ammonia borane-polymer...
Ammonia borane (AB) is a promising hydrogen storage material with up to 12 wt% obtainable from 100 to 150 C. Desorption temperatures can be lowered towards targets and kinetics... -
In-situ Gravimetric Study of the Decomposition of Alkali Metal Amidoboranes
We request 3 days on HRPD with the IGAn apparatus, to perform in-situ neutron diffraction and thermogravimetric studies of the decomposition of deuterated alkaline amidoboranes.... -
The Dynamics of the Molecular Subunit, [Li(NH3)4]+ ¿ Kinetic Energies, Proton...
We request 7 days on VESUVIO to study the molecular crystals 7Li(NH3)4X (X=I, Br, Cl , F) and parent halides, 7LiX (data for 7LiF and 7LiCl already exists). This proposal is... -
Rotational Dynamics of the Molecular Subunit, [Li(NH3)4]+X-: Rotational Tunne...
We request 6 days on IRIS to investigate the rotational and long timescale dynamics of the [Li(NH3)4]+ unit in the series of halide materials Li(NH3)4X (X= Cl, Br, I). This... -
The Low Temperature Phase Transitions of Li(ND3)4X (X= Cl, Br, I)
This study aims to investigate the low temperature phase behaviour of Li(ND3)4Cl, Li(ND3)4Br and Li(ND3)4I. To the authors knowledge the only structural data that exists on... -
The Dynamics of Li2S and Li2Se A DINS study
We request 4 days on Vesuvio to study the crystal Li2S and Li2Se. This is supported by EPSRC grant number EP/K002546/1 and will demonstrate further the ability of VESUVIO in... -
QENS studies of nanostructured hydrides
The search for a light, high-capacity hydrogen store continues. Ammonia borane (AB) is a complex hydride with excellent hydrogen capacity, of which half desorbs at moderate...
