13. Our recent study shows that at a moderate hydrogenation temperature, such as 200 °C or lower, Mg has already started to react with the Si substrate to form a stable Mg2 Si alloy, which reduces the amount of Mg converted to Mg H2 and strongly affects the H-storage reversibility and cycling performance.
