✦ Synopsis


A hydrogen storage study, on gravimetric and volumetric bases, has been carried out on three adsorbents having similar adsorption capacities: two activated carbons and a metal organic framework (MOF-5). These three samples have similar hydrogen storage on a gravimetric basis. However, expressed on a volumetric basis, both AC have higher hydrogen storage than MOF-5. Wrong conclusions could be avoided, when comparing these two types of adsorbents, if their hydrogen storage data were reported on a volumetric basis, using reliable measurable densities. Tap or packing densities are the most suitable. Crystal density, mostly used for reporting hydrogen storage on MOF, gives unrealistically high volumetric storage values.

In this work, we prepared platinum doped on activated carbons/metal-organic frameworks-5 hybrid composites (Pt-ACs-MOF-5) to obtain a high hydrogen storage capacity. The surface functional groups and surface charges were confirmed by Fourier transfer infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and zeta-potential
