An assessment of the viability of hydrogen generation from the reaction of silicon powder and sodium hydroxide solution for portable applications

The gravimetric hydrogen storage efficiency of silicon has been widely reported as 14wt.%, suggesting that this material should be an excellent hydrogen generation source for portable applications. However, in the case of the reaction of silicon powder with 20wt.% sodium hydroxide solution at 50°C,...
