The superior corrosion and mechanical properties and low capture cross-section for thermal neutrons make zirconium alloys suitable for use in nuclear reactors. Nevertheless, the formation of hydride ...

An international research team developed a superionic conductor that negatively charged hydrogen, called hydride ions, diffuses fast. Superionic conductors promise clean, renewable energy -- at the ...

3D atomic structure of metastable palladium hydride nanoparticles as identified by atomic electron tomography and a schematic of the metastable-phase nanoparticle growth process Disclaimer: AAAS and ...

Lithium aluminum hydride (LAH) is a strong reducing agent used to make myriad molecules. But LAH reacts violently with water to form hydrogen gas, which can cause fires and explosions. While chemists ...

Superionic conductors promise clean, renewable energy — at the right temperatures. These conductors, used as solid electrolytes in batteries and fuel cells, comprise solid materials in which ions move ...
