From EDAX, Inc.
In a recent issue of JOM, Jones and Thomas gave an overview of materials issues associated with the Hydrogen Economy. They point out that while there are economic and societal issues associated with moving to a hydrogen economy, ultimately the successful transition may hinge upon technological issues such as hydrogen production, distribution, storage and propulsion which in turn depend on advancements in key materials technologies. EDAX provides a suite of characterization tools needed by materials scientists to support research in these key enabling technologies. This brief note explores several arenas in which EDAX tools have been used in support of advancing enabling technologies towards a viable hydrogen economy.
