Erratum: Corrigendum to “Thermochemistry of glass forming Y-substituted Sr-analogues of titanite (SrTiSiO5)” [J. Mater. Res. 24(11), 3380 (2009)]
A study of the influence of mesoporous SiO 2 on the dehydrogenation of NaAlH 4 and TiF 3 -doped NaAlH 4 revealed that the amount of hydrogen evolved is 3.8 wt% for the pristine NaAlH 4 and around 4.2 wt% for the TiF 3 -doped NaAlH 4 , but increases to 4.9-5.0 wt% once the samples are doped with meso...

Summary: | A study of the influence of mesoporous SiO
2
on the dehydrogenation of NaAlH
4
and TiF
3
-doped NaAlH
4
revealed that the amount of hydrogen evolved is 3.8 wt% for the pristine NaAlH
4
and around 4.2 wt% for the TiF

-doped NaAlH
4
, but increases to 4.9-5.0 wt% once the samples are doped with mesoporous SiO
2
in the temperature range of 100-350 °C. A favorable synergistic effect on the NaAlH
4
dehydrogenation is achieved as mesoporous SiO
2
is added as a codopant along with TiF
3
, which is associated with the nanosized pores and high specific surface area of mesoporous SiO
2
. The catalytic mechanism of mesoporous SiO
2
is more physical than chemical relative to the catalytic mechanism of TiF
