The hydrogen storage performance of MgH2–10 wt.% TiC composite was investigated. The additive TiC nanoparticle led to a pronounced improvement in the de/hydrogenation kinetics of MgH2. The composite could dehydrogenate 6.3 wt.% at 573 K while the milled MgH2 only released 4.9 wt.% of...

Dual-listed firms simultaneously follow the relevant rules in their home country and in their cross-listed country. In contrast, other firms only listed in the cross-listed country are only subject to the local regulations. Previous literature has found evidence that cross-listing can improve...
