Abstract

High purity hydrogen produced by hydrolysis of sodium borohydride can be used directly in (proton exchange membrane) PEM fuel cells for portable devices and automotive applications. The advantages of high storage capacity, quickly start, controllable reaction and mild condition, hydrogen generation by catalytic hydrolysis of chemical hydride, such as sodium borohydride, has attracted much attention for development recently.
