Abstract

A method is provided for storing hydrogen in a macroporous monolithic material by the heterogeneous nucleation of a metal hydride. A composite material is provided for storing hydrogen directly obtained by the method. A method is also provided for employing the material for the production of dihydrogen, as well as a method for producing dihydrogen using such a composite material.
