The practical application of sodium alanate (NaAlH4) as a hydrogen and lithium storage material has attracted intensive attention. The high energy barrier for breaking the Al-H bonds of NaAlH4, however, remains a key challenge. Here, we report that graphene could act as an effective platform to tailor the metal-hydrogen bonds of NaAlH4 through their favorable molecular interaction. Theoretical and experimental results confirm that graphene is capable of weakening the Al-H bonds of NaAlH4, thus facilitating the breaking and recombination of Al-H...
