Abstract: Energy utilization in the world is facing great challenges and it is very important to develop green and clean energy. Hydrolysis of ammonia borane is one of the effective routes to produce clean and renewable hydrogen and suitable catalysts can improve the efficiency of hydrogen production in the hydrolysis reaction. The development of efficient and safe catalysts has been the focus and hotspot in this field. This paper reviews the role of active metal components and supports in the preparation of catalysts and the catalytic hydrolysis of ammonia borane based on the key factors that affect the catalytic performance. Finally, the current problems are summarized and the future development of this field is pointed out.

Key words: Hydrogen generation, Ammonia borane, Catalyst, Active component, Support
