The investigation of hydrogen sorption properties of the MgH2-CNF composites, obtained by mechanochemical treatment of mixtures of the components, testifies about availability of use of carbon nanofibers for creation of hydrogen storage composite materials. 

In the present work magnesium hydride as a starting material has been used for higher effectiveness of mechanochemical treatment. Magnesium hydride is less plastic and more fragile material as compared with metallic magnesium [3].

Equally effective was the complexation of C70 by HSVM (lOmin, Cjq j-cyclodextrin 1 8), while the other functionalized C50 derivatives afforded water-soluble 1 1 complexes, since functional groups prevent the formation of the bicapped 1 2 complexes. By mechanochemical treatment, fullerene 50 also complexes with sulfocalix[8]arene (lOmin, equimolar amounts), and the obvious advantage of the solid-state complexation is illustrated by the complexation of sulfocalix [8]arene with fullerene dimer (also prepared by mechanosynthesis, see chapter Applications of Ball Milling in Nanocarbon Material Synthesis). Dimer is hardly soluble in most common organic solvents, but the mechanochemical treatment of an equimolar mixture of sulfocalix[8]arene and fullerene dimer for lOmin afforded bicapped complex, which is about twice more soluble in water than in commonly used ODCB.

Mechanochemical processing has been recently applied to the synthesis of a wide range of nanocrystalline rare earth oxides. Milling of precursor powders leads to the formation of a composite of the starting materials which react during milling or subsequent heat treatment to form a mixture of separated fine particles of the desired phase within a soluble salt matrix. 

Finally, mechanochemical synthesis offers a solvent-free route for the preparation of MOFs by ball milling of starting components [23-28]. Sufficient amounts of pure material for broad-range testing can be easily obtained from this method. Furthermore, the solid-solid reaction typically produces quantitative yields and leads directly to products in powder form. Hence, the materials are ready for various applications without the need for time-consuming treatments. Mechanochemistry as an approach for the synthesis for one-, two-, and three-dimensional metal-organic compounds is currently employed by several groups, who mainly focus on the synthesis of new structures.
