A significant obstacle in the large-scale applications of sodium borohydride (NaBH4 ) for hydrogen storage is its high cost. Herein, we report a new method to synthesize NaBH4 by ball milling hydrated sodium tetraborate (Na2 B4 O7 ⋅ 10H2 O) with low-cost Al or Al88 Si12 , instead of Na, Mg or Ca. An effective strategy is developed to facilitate mass transfer during the reaction by introducing NaH to enable the formation of NaAlO2 instead of dense Al2 O3 on Al surface, and by using Si as a milling additive to prevent agglomeration and also break up passivation layers. Another advantage of this process is that hydrogen in Na2 B4 O7 ⋅ 10H2 O serves as a hydrogen source for NaBH4 generation. Considering the low cost of the starting materials ...
