Evolution of catalyst coated atomised magnesium spheres: an alternative thermal storage medium for concentrated solar power applications

Elevated temperature cycling studies were performed on two commercial gas atomised Mg spherical powders (average diameter of 26 μm and 30 μm) with magnetron sputtered catalysts (chromium, iron, vanadium and stainless steel) applied to their surfaces. At 350 °C, the presence of a catalyst promotes fa...
