  • Publication number: 20220252305
    Abstract: To provide a heat generating material in which a decrease in hydrogen absorption performance and amount of heat generation can be suppressed at the time of use at a high temperature, and physical properties such as hydrogen absorption performance and amount of heat generation are further improved. The heat generating material includes: a first metal having a melting point of 230° C. or more; and a second metal having a melting point higher than the melting point of the first metal, in which, at this time, at least one of the first metal or the second metal has a hydrogen solubility greater than silver at a temperature less than the melting point of the second metal, a hydride of at least one of the first metal or the second metal has a standard enthalpy of formation equal to or more than a standard enthalpy of formation of CaH2, and heat is generated when the first metal and the second metal come into contact with hydrogen gas at a temperature less than the melting point of the second metal.
