Hydrogen Technology
Hydrogen Link’s activities are centered on innovative research in the field of hydrogen, through scientific and analytical studies based on laboratory experimentation and testing.
The focus of research at Hydrogen Link is the development of new light-weight materials and catalysts for solid-state storage, ultimately leading to practical and energy-efficient delivery of hydrogen for fuel cell and hydrogen internal combustion engine applications. Such systems for storing hydrogen will play a pivotal role in the development of a hydrogen infrastructure.
Current research projects involve research on advanced, catalyzed hydride systems, as well as innovative methods of hydrogen generation, which are to enable efficient and convenient handling and distribution of hydrogen.
Another essential area of Hydrogen Link activity is further development of a new, proprietary nano-catalyst in various types of applications involving hydrogen transfer reactions.
The emergence of the hydrogen economy is critically dependent on the development of hydrogen generation technologies and advanced methods of hydrogen storage. 
Hydrogen Link’s technology surrounding solid-state hydrogen storage provides promising solutions to the challenges of hydrogen infrastructure. Solid-state storage technology is based on the use of metal hydrides—compounds which are able to reversibly absorb hydrogen.
The Hydrogen Link team has pioneered research in nanocrystalline hydrides, which represent an advanced generation of hydrides synthesized by mechanical processing. The combination of nanocrystalline structure with nano-particle
catalysis has yielded hydrides with both high hydrogen capacity and remarkable kinetics of operation. These developments were accomplished through the innovative introduction of solid-state reactions in both hydride production and its catalysis.
Hydrogen Link holds key intellectual property in the field of hydrogen transfer reaction catalysis. 
This technology includes a new nano-catalyst (based on active metal-hydrogen-electronegative element complexes) which is becoming a key enabler for the next generation of advanced materials for use in hydrogen storage. Among the various applications of this nano-catalyst which are being investigated is the replacement of high-cost hydrogen dissociation catalysts, such as platinum, in hydrogen fuel cells.
