Abstract :

Studies of economic, highly efficient and safe gas storage materials (GSMs) are of great importance in the fuel cells based vehicles and CO2 capture. In our lab, we focus on studies on GSMs for H2 and CO2 based one micro/nano-technology. A series of metal organic frameworks (MOFs) and porous carbon materials such as grapheme for GSMs were synthesized. Their crystal structures, gas storage and thermodynamic properties were systematically evaluated. Furthermore, relationship of structure-activity were explored.
