The problem of storing hydrogen safely and effectively is one of
the major technological barriers currently preventing the
widespread adoption of hydrogen as an energy carrier and the
subsequent transition to a so-called hydrogen economy. Practical
issues with the storage of hydrogen in both gas and liquid form
appear to make reversible solid state hydrogen storage the most
promising potential solution. "Hydrogen Storage Materials"
addresses the characterisation of the hydrogen storage properties
of the materials that are currently being considered for this
purpose.
The background to the topic is introduced, along with the
various types of materials that are currently under investigation,
including nanostructured interstitial and complex hydrides, and
porous materials, such as metal-organic frameworks and microporous
organic polymers. The main features of "Hydrogen Storage Materials"
include: an overview of the different types of hydrogen storage
materials and the properties that are of interest for their
practical use;descriptions of the gas sorption measurement methods
used to determine these properties, and the complementary
techniques that can be used to help corroborate hydrogen uptake
data; andextensive coverage of the practical considerations for
accurate hydrogen sorption measurement that drive both instrument
design and the development of experimental methodology.
"Hydrogen Storage Materials" provides an up-to-date overview of
the topic for experienced researchers, while including enough
introductory material to serve as a useful, practical introduction
for newcomers to the field.
