METHOD FOR RELEASE OF HYDROGEN FROM THE ADDUCT OF AMMONIA AND BORANE AND USE OF TRANSITION METAL FREE CATALYSTS FOR RELEASE OF HYDROGEN FROM THE ADDUCT OF AMMONIA AND BORANE

摘要

The invention encompasses the use of transition metal-free, at least one boron atom-containing Lewis acids, for example of the general formulas (I), (II) and (III), as catalysts in the thermal release of hydrogen from hydrogen storage substances, in particular aminoborane, and a system for reversibly storing hydrogen, whose hydrogen release rate can be easily controlled by temperature variation, without having to separate storage substance and release-release catalyst.
