It has been discovered that short-term exposure to a moist atmosphere has a very beneficial effect on the desorption reaction of the 2NaBH4 + MgH2 mixture. By this procedure it is possible to achieve, after drying, both faster desorption kinetics and greater amounts of released hydrogen compared to ball-milled material without further treatment.}, note = {Online available at: \url{http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.scriptamat.2011.02.017} (DOI).
