Abstract
Abstract
Inorganic materials that enable a link between the storage and release of molecular oxygen offer a fertile ground in continuous quest for the applications that can potentially reduce energy consumption and thus minimize adverse effects on the environment. Herein, we address reversible intake/release of an oxygen within the BaAl2O4 material as evidenced by unexpected magnetic ordering. Magnetic measurements unveil that an oxygen is stored in the form of condensed matter, creating a kind of low dimensional, chain-like assembly within the tunnels of BaAl2O4 structure. We demonstrate that oxygen is adsorbed simply by staying in air, at ambient conditions, and released relatively quickly by staying in the He or other gas atmosphere of several millibars pressure even at 300 K.
