In this study, a novel nanoporous magnesium-lithium material prepared by a physical vapor deposition method exhibits an excellent hydrogen generation property. It generates hydrogen efficiently and quickly with saltwater, reaching a hydrogen generation amount of 962 mL g^(-1) and hydrogen generation rates of 60 mL g^(-1)min^(-1), 109 mL g^(-1)min^(-1),256 mL g^(-1)min^(-1) and 367 mL g^(-1)min^(-1) at 0 ℃, 25 ℃, 35 ℃ and 50 ℃, respectively. The nanoporous magnesium-lithium material is composed of a solid solution phase with a magnesium-lithium atomic ratio of 17:3. By synchrotron radiation analysis, the sizes of the nanopores are in the range of 100 nm ~ 600 nm with an average size of 280 nm, and the porosity is calculated to be ~42.4%. The improved hydrogen generation property is attributed to the nanoporous structure with a high specific surface area, and the addition of lithium element which acts as active sites in hydrogen generation process.展开更多
