Various mechanochemical approaches to improvement of hydrogen storage properties of Mg-based materials are discussed and some experimental results illustrate the possibility of each approach. It is demonstrated that mechanochemical methods are effective both for improving hydriding characteristics of known hydrogen absorbing phases and for search for new materials for hydrogen storage.
