Advanced Borophosphates and Phosphates for Hydrogen Technologies

This book explores advanced material design as a key enabler for accelerating the shift toward renewable energy systems and hydrogen technologies across national and regional contexts. It presents the design synthesis and crystallographic study of borophosphate- and phosphate-based frameworks with three-dimensional microporous architectures highlighting their potential in hydrogen storage and water-splitting electrocatalysis. By combining solid-state and hydrothermal synthesis with advanced structural analysis the work demonstrates how cation substitution and intrinsic porosity can be tailored to enhance ion transport and catalytic efficiency. Preliminary machine learning studies are also introduced to accelerate the prediction of structure-property relationships offering powerful data-driven tools for material discovery. Bridging fundamental crystallographic insights with applied energy research the book lays a solid foundation for the integration of crystalline framework materials into industrial projects reinforcing decarbonization strategies renewable energy adoption and the development of sustainable hydrogen-based economies.
