Abstract

In order to obtain a hydrogen storage system that is cost-effective, safe and energy-viable, in this work we studied the adsorption process of different sites and configurations of the hydrogen molecule in both MOF HKUST-1 and FeBTC structure. For the computational study was used the Ab initio simulation package from Vienna (VASP) with the GGA PBE functional in an SBU of 672 atoms. The exposed metal sites were found to be the best interaction site for the hydrogen molecule. In this work showed adsorption energy of -0.114 eV and -0.93 eV for HKUST-1 and FeBTC, respectively. This work also evidences the modifications of the atomic positions when the hydrogen molecule interacts with the MOF and the network energy.
