Abstract

Mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbons activated using potassium hydroxide have large surface areas and high pore volumes, are studied for their hydrogen storage properties. The activated material can store 6.84 wt.% of hydrogen at 77K under a pressure of 20bar, which is estimated to correspond to a maximum capacity of 8.24 wt.% based on the Langmuir simulation. The hydrogen adsorption values show linear relationships with the volumes of micropores and small mesopores under those conditions, which indicates that the small mesopores between the sizes 2 and 3nm also make contributions to the hydrogen adsorption at high pressure.
