Fig. 1.1 A novel vision of refueling/retail station for fuel ceU-powered vehicles based on the concept of the off-board recharging of spent hydride fuel and the mechanochemical synthesis of nanostructured hydrogen storage materials in baU-miU plants. Such is not the currently accepted vision of hydrogen economy but one which may turn out to be viable alternative to onboard...

Similarly, high performance solid propellants consisting of Poly(GlyN) binder, ammonium perchlorate oxidizer and beryllium/beryllium hydride fuel which also do not require the presence of plasticizers and offer optimum performance at low solids loading have been reported for space launch vehicles [143].

The first several papers concern themselves with a theoretical approach to extremely advanced oxidizers the next group examine oxidizers primarily by studying important physical and combustion characteristics in propellants. Two papers follow on binders which act as fuels as well as conferring desirable physical properties on solid propellants. At this point there is no coverage of the light metal hydride fuels.

This hydrogen density in e zirconium hydride is as high as in water at room temperature and is appreciably higher than in water at the 300°C used in power reactors. Another advantage of the uranium-zirconium hydride fuel-and-moderator mixture is its high prompt negative temperature coefficient of reactivity, a consequence of the intimate thermal contact between and hydrogen atoms.
