Quote from AbstractDynamic elastic modulus and internal friction of cold consolidated mixtures of Al and LiAlH4 powders have been measured. All reactions and decompositions occurring in LiAlH4 during a thermal run have been detected as dynamic elastic modulus anomalies and internal friction peaks, proving the effectiveness of mechanical spectroscopy for the study of alanate. These informations are complementary to calorimetric and thermogravimetric data.
