Magnesium hydride is considered to be one of the most promising hydrogen storage materials, although it nevertheless has some problems, such as the high value of the activation energy of hydrogen desorption. To solve this problem, some scientists have proposed adding nanocarbon materials, in particular carbon nanotubes, to magnesium hydride. Currently, a detailed understanding of the mechanisms of obtaining composites based on magnesium hydride and carbon nanotubes is lacking, as is our understanding of the effect of nanocarbon additives on the activation energy and temperature of hydrogen desorption depending on the parameters of the composite synthesis. In addition, the data obtained at various values of milling parameters are very different, and in some works the effect of carbon nanomaterials on the hydrogen properties of magnesium hydride was not confirmed at all. Thus, it is important to determine the effect of nanocarbon additives on the properties of hydrogen storage of magnesium hydride under various milling parameters. This work is devoted to the study of the effect of nanocarbon additives on magnesium hydride and the determination of the dependences of the hydrogen desorption temperature and activation energy on the synthesis parameters. Composite powders containing MgH2 with 5 wt.% single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) were prepared using a planetary ball mill. The milling was carried out at various milling speeds, namely 300, 660, and 900 rpm. Results suggested that the structure of the nanotubes is preserved with prolonged grinding of magnesium hydride and SWCNT in a ball mill for 180 min at a relatively low grinding speed of 300 rpm. The composite obtained with these parameters has the lowest temperature of hydrogen desorption and an activation energy of H2 desorption of 162 ± 1 kJ/mol H2, which is 15% lower than that of the magnesium hydride MgH2 (189 ± 1 kJ/mol H2).
