On the basis of density functional calculations, we show that a Ti-4 cluster adsorbed at the (101) surface of NaAlH4 is able to catalyze both the release of H-2 and the formation of A1H(5)(2-) groups which have been previously proposed to be the mobile species leading to the formation of the Na3AlH6 product during the dehydrogenation of Na alanate.

Abstract

On the basis of density functional calculations, we show that a Ti-4 cluster adsorbed at the (101) surface of NaAlH4 is able to catalyze both the release of H-2 and the formation of A1H(5)(2-) groups which have been previously proposed to be the mobile species leading to the formation of the Na3AlH6 product during the dehydrogenation of Na alanate.
