Breaking open boranes to power fuel cells

Hydrogen storage has been a big stumbling block to fuel cell powered cars

Hydrogen-rich ammonia borane could be a step closer to becoming a practical source of hydrogen for fuel cells following the development of a new ruthenium-based catalyst by chemists in the US. The catalyst can dehydrogenate ammonia borane at mild temperatures, producing the largest quantity of hydrogen by any dehydrogenating catalyst to date. The catalyst is stable in air and can be re-used for multiple cycles.  More...
