ABSTRACTIn order to explore rational designs and synthetic strategies toward efficient hydrogen storage materials, quantum mechanical calculations and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations have been carried out on a series of the Metal-Organic Frameworks containing various organic linkers. The calculations for specific surface areas and the shape of frontier orbitals for various frameworks indicate that the hydrogen storage capacity is largely dependent on the effective surface area of the material, rather than the free volume. Based on the iso-electrostatic potential surface from density functional calculations and the theoretical amount of adsorbed hydrogen from the grand canonical Monte Carlo calculations, it was also found that the electron localization around the organic linker plays an important role in the hydrogen storage capacity of Metal-Organic Frameworks. The prediction of the modeling study is supported by the hydrogen adsorption experiments with IRMOF-1 and -3, revealing the more enhanced hydrogen storage capacity of IRMOF-3 compared with that of IRMOF-1 at 77 K and H2 1 atm.

Mg-Li-Al alloy was prepared by ingot casting and then underwent subsequent reactive ball milling. A Mg-Li-Al-H complex hydride was obtained under a 0.4 MPa hydrogen atmosphere at room temperature, and as high as 10.7 wt% hydrogen storage capacity was achieved, with the peak desorption temperature of the initial step at approximately 65 °C. The evolution of the reaction during milling, as well as the effect of Li/Al ratio in the raw materials on the desorption properties of the hydrides formed, were studied by x-ray diffraction and simultaneous thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry techniques. The results showed that mechanical milling increases the solubility of Li in Mg, leading to the transformation of bcc β(Li) solid solution to hcp α(Mg) solid solution, the latter continues to incorporate Li and Al, which stimulates the formation of Mg-Li-Al-H hydride. A lower Li/Al ratio resulted in faster hydrogen desorption rate and a greater amount of hydrogen released at a low temperature range, but sacrificing total hydrogen storage capacity.

The electrode(Ni-MWNTs) containing nickel(Ni) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) was prepared by composite electrodeposit. Electrochemical hydrogen storage of the electrode was studied. The result showed a high electrochemical discharging capacity of up to 1361.1mA·h·g-1, which corresponds to a hydrogen storage capacity of 4.77Wt%(weight percent). Test of cyclic lifespan showed MWNTs had certain cyclic lifespan. Cyclic voltammetry tests showed that MWNTs can store hydrogen in chemical form.
