Validity Verification of Sodium Borohydride as Fuel for Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle

Abstract

Sodium borohydride (NaBH₄) is attractive as fuel for fuel cell electric vehicle because of its high energy density. Hydrogen reactor, which generates hydrogen gas by hydrolysis of NaBH₄, has been proposed. This letter verified that 100W fuel cell was able to generate electric power appropriately by hydrogen gas generated from the hydrogen reactor.
