Extract

The investigation of many stoichiometric variations involving large numbers of combinations of elements offers a means to discover a hydride with optimal properties. We introduce the use of spatially resolved infrared imaging as a high throughput hydrogen storage candidate screening technique. Analysis is presented of a sample that consists of 16 separate Mg-Ni-Fe ternary pads and 32 Mg-Ni or Mg-Fe binary pads. Hydrogen sorption related emissivity changes observed indicate a substantial decrease in hydriding temperatures, which sensitively depends on composition.
