Light Metal Amide/Imide Systems for On-Board Hydrogen Storage Materials

The impact of carbon materials on the hydrogen storage properties of light metal hydrides

The safe and efficient storage of hydrogen is still one of the remaining challenges towards fuel cell powered cars. Metal hydrides are a promising class of materials as they allow the storage of large amounts of hydrogen in a small volume at room temperature and low pressures. However, usually the kinetics of hydrogen release and uptake and the thermodynamic properties do not satisfy the requir...

Hydrogen Storage by Physisorption on Porous Materials

Nanostructured Polymeric Materials for Hydrogen Storage

Predicting New Materials for Hydrogen Storage Application

Knowledge about the ground-state crystal structure is a prerequisite for the rational understanding of solid-state properties of new materials. To act as an efficient energy carrier, hydrogen should be absorbed and desorbed in materials easily and in high quantities. Owing to the complexity in structural arrangements and difficulties involved in establishing hydrogen positions by x-ray diffract...

Progress on first-principles-based materials design for hydrogen storage.

This article briefly summarizes the research activities in the field of hydrogen storage in sorbent materials and reports our recent works and future directions for the design of such materials. Distinct features of sorption-based hydrogen storage methods are described compared with metal hydrides and complex chemical hydrides. We classify the studies of hydrogen sorbent materials in terms of t...
