Summary Hydrogen‐pressurized hollow glass microspheres (HGMs) in combination with a hydride bear the potential of storing hydrogen in feasible amounts. Therefore, the approximately 20‐µm diameter spheres are heated up and pressurized with hydrogen at a pressure of 85 MPa, so hydrogen diffuses into t...
