Storing Hydrogen for Fuel-Cell Vehicles in Solid-State

Researchers at a national lab have uncovered a magnesium compound that could store hydrogen more efficiently. Scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory are exploring ways to use an inexpensive and layered superconductor compound to efficiently store hydrogen. They have already discovered the key mechanism used by magnesium diboride (MgB2) to absorb hydrogen and the
