In recent years, the effective hydrogen release from hydrogen storage materials has attracted extensive attention. In this work, CoCl2 & BULL;6H2O (Cobalt chloride hexahydrate, CCH), a low cost and easily available catalyst, was successfully used to catalyze the hydrolysis of NaBH4-NH3BH3 composite (xSB-AB, x is the molar ratio of SB to AB). The results show that the synergistic effect produced by ball milling is beneficial to improve the hydrogen release performance of xSB-AB hydrolysis. This work not only advances the understanding of the synergistic effect of SB and AB, but also provides a basis for using low-cost catalysts to improve the hydrolysis performance of xSB-AB.
