摘要：

三氢化铝（AlH₃）具有储氢量大、质量轻、释氢温度较低、产物洁净等优势，是应用于燃料电池的理想储氢材料，但因其合成成本较高、室温条件下难以再生，目前尚未大规模应用。本文从燃料电池对储氢材料的要求出发，介绍了AlH₃的基本性质、合成再生方法及其释氢性能与改进方法，简述了基于AlH₃的储氢装置及系统、车载储氢和便携式电源等应用的国内外研究现状，提出今后研究工作应集中在降低释氢温度、调控释氢速率、提高释氢率、设计高效储氢系统及开发低成本制备和再生工艺。

Abstract:

Aluminum hydride (AlH₃) has the advantages of high hydrogen storage capacity, light weight, low desorption temperature, and clean products. It is an ideal hydrogen storage material for fuel cells. However, due to its high synthesis cost and difficult regeneration at room temperature, it has not yet been applied on large scale. Based on the requirements of fuel cells for hydrogen storage materials, this paper introduces the basic properties, synthesis and regeneration methods of AlH₃, and its hydrogen desorption performance and the improvement methods, and then briefly describes the domestic and foreign research status of AlH₃ used for fuel cells from the aspects of hydrogen storage devices and systems, on-board hydrogen storage and portable power applications. It is proposed that the research work should focus on reducing the desorption temperature, controlling the desorption rate, increasing desorption efficiency, designing efficient hydrogen storage system and developing low-cost preparation and regeneration processes.

Key words: hydrogen, fuel cells, hydrogen storage material, aluminum hydride, desorption, slurry, regeneration
