Complex Hydride Materials Research Group focuses on the research and development of nitrogen-based hydrogen storage materials; explores the relationship between structure and activity, develops new concepts for material design; investigates the mechanism of hydrogen absorption/desorption; optimizes thermodynamic and kinetics for hydrogen storage; and employs complex hydrides as catalysts or co-catalysts in heterogeneous catalysis, such as ammonia synthesis, ammonia decomposition and hydrogenation.

The group has 4 professors, 5 associate professors, 3 senior engineers, 1 research assistant, 4 post-doctors and more than 30 graduate students.
