A team at Zhejiang University in China has significantly enhanced the hydrogen storage properties of sodium aluminum hydride (NaAlH 4 ) by doping it with a 2D titanium carbide (Ti 3 C2) MXene. The onset dehydrogenation temperature of the 7 wt% Ti 3 C 2 -containing NaAlH 4 sample is reduced to 100 °C, and hydrogen recharging starts at 50 °C.
