Abstract

Nanosized lithiated titanium oxide (Li<sub>x</sub>TiO<sub>2</sub>) noticeably improves the kinetic behaviour of 2LiBH<sub>4</sub> + MgH<sub>2</sub>. The presence of Li<sub>x</sub>TiO<sub>2</sub> reduces the time required for the first dehydrogenation by suppressing the intermediate reaction to Li<sub>2</sub>B<sub>12</sub>H<sub>12</sub>, leading to direct MgB<sub>2</sub> formation.
