Blog - Absorbing Hydrogen Turns Palladium Into A Quasi Liquid

Palladium can absorb vast quantities of hydrogen but materials scientists have now discovered that this process has an extraordinary effect on the metal

Here's a curious experiment involving palladium, the rare silvery metal well known for its ability to absorb hydrogen. When it is saturated, the ratio of hydrogen to palladium can be as high 0.6, which is why the metal is used to filter and even store hydrogen.
