Abstract
A composition for hydrogen (H) storage and generation including lithium aluminum hydride (LAIN is provided. The composition includes a mixture of LiAlHand a catalytic metal additive designed to tailor the kinetics of hydrogen release. The LiAlHand catalytic metal additive and are gently mixed together in order to physically disperse the LiAlHand catalyst powders without causing a detrimental chemical interaction. The hydrogen capacity of the composition is substantially not reduced or decreased (e.g., undergoes less than about 5% reduction) during the mixing process.
