Popis: | The multicomponent alumosilicide Li12Mg3Si3Al (cubic, space group I-43d, cI76) belongs to the structural family based on the Cu15Si4 type. The Li atoms are ordered and occupy the site with symmetry 1 and the Mg atoms occupy the site with -4.. symmetry. The Si/Al statistical mixture occupies the site with .3. symmetry. The coordination polyhedra around the Li atoms are 13-vertex distorted pseudo-Frank–Kasper polyhedra. The environments of the Mg and Si/Al atoms are icosahedral. The hydrogen storage characteristics of Li12Mg3Si3Al were investigated. The reversible hydrogen storage capacity of the title compound is excellent and the gravimetric storage capacity of this new material, corresponding to 9.1 wt% H2, is higher compared to Li12Mg3Si4 (8.8 wt%). The enthalpy of hydrogen desorption is 86 kJ mol−1 and is lower compared to known lithium-based hydrides. |
