Can we use the H-H stretch of adsorbed dihydrogen to characterise materials?
The use of the J 0-to-1 rotational transition of dihydrogen has been extensively used to characterise the state if hydrogen in and on materials. The disadvantage of studying the... -
Hydrogen diffusion in novel porous carbon materials for fuel cells
The performance of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEMFC) is strongly dependent on the diffusion rate of hydrogen and the electron mobility, which in turn is strongly influenced... -
Influence of nanoparticle size and morphology on the relative proportions of ...
Palladium is able to dissociative absorb large quantities of hydrogen, reversibly. However, the formation and relative proportion of different phases of palladium hydride, and... -

Vibrational properties of Vanadium and Zirconium based metal hydrides
Inelastic neutron scattering has proven to be reliable tool to investigate the phonon structure of hydrides. E.g., it was shown that the vibrational structure of Ca(BH4)2 has a... -
Dynamic behaviour of confined hydro gen in natural (COx) and synthetic clays ...
The experiment is aimed to unravel the diffusion mechanism of hydrogen in Callovo-Oxfordian clays, which are candidates to be used as backfill material in long term geological... -
Probing the Kinetics and Liquid Structure of Toluene Hydrogenation by Pt/MCM-41
In a proof-of-concept beamtime award (RB1220486) we studied the process of platinum-catalysed benzene hydrogenation in the pores of MCM-41 using standard neutron diffraction... -
Characterisation of on-top hydrogen on fuel cell catalysts.
A key step in a fuel cell is the dissociation of hydrogen gas to provide protons and electrons by a catalyst. For low temperature fuel cells carbon black supported... -

IN-SITU INELASTIC NEUTRON SPECTGROSCOPY STUDIES OF METAL-HYDRIDE HYDROGEN STO...
Hydrogen storage is considered to be one of the principal technological barriers in the transition towards a hydrogen-based economy. In this proposal, we plan to look at the key... -
INS studies with MAPS of Nafion and model compounds
In the archetypal hydrogenoxygen proton exchange membrane fuel cell design, a proton-conducting polymer membrane (typically Nafion) contains the electrolyte solution that... -
Spatial, Chemical, and Temporal Resolution of Platinum-Catalysed Benzene Conv...
This proposal aims to study the potential for neutron diffraction to offer spatially-, chemically-, and temporally-resolved information on a dynamic system, in this case the... -
