Abstract
There has been recent interest in polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) for solid-state hydrogen-storage materials; however, the gas-sorption properties and conditions for hydrogen uptake are relatively unexplored. PIM-1 has been synthesised using the condensation reaction between 3,3,3,3-tetramethyl-1,1-spirobisindane-5,5,6,6-tetraol and 2,3,5,6-tetrafluorophthalonitrile as precursors. The synthesised PIM-1 was annealed at different temperatures for varying times and then characterised for hydrogen uptake at both ambient and cryogenic temperatures. The excess hydrogen PCT isotherms have been measured to high pressure (320 bar) for the first time and the effect of different annealing conditions on the hydrogen capacity is reported.
