Abstract

Hydrogen storage capacity of a carbon nanotube (CNT) sample is investigated using Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis (ERDA) at constant hydrogen uptake pressure of 5 bar and different adsorption temperatures within 30°C–500°C. The results of hydrogen concentration versus temperature revealed three distinct temperature intervals in which a certain adsorption or desorption mechanism is dominant. Moreover, the results showed that hydrogen storage capacity of CNTs at the applied conditions of pressure and temperature is about 0.1 wt.% which is well below the DOE requirements for a viable hydrogen storage system. The physidesorption activation energy is calculated using the Arrhenius plot to be 6 kJmol-1.
