Sodium lithium hydride (NaLiH) is a mixed-metal hydride ceramic compound that belongs to the family of complex hydrides, which are lightweight ionic solids containing hydrogen. This material is primarily of research and development interest for energy storage and hydrogen-related applications, as complex hydrides have shown promise as hydrogen storage media and solid-state electrolytes in advanced battery systems. NaLiH represents an experimental material class where engineered combinations of alkali metals with hydrogen are being evaluated to optimize hydrogen absorption capacity, thermal stability, and electrochemical performance for next-generation energy systems.
