The performance of green carbon as a backbone for hydrogen storage materials
We investigate the use of carbonized bamboo, which has an organic porous structure, as a hydrogen storage material. Bamboo samples were thermally treated at 800, 900, 1000, and 1100 degrees C for 24 h. The pore size and hydrogen storage capacity of each sample were measured by N-2 and H-2 gas sorption up to 1.13 bar at 77 K. The maximum hydrogen storage was exhibited by the sample treated at 900 degrees C, which reached 1.35 wt% at 1.13 bar/77 K. The results showed that the bamboo, one of the green carbons, has the potential to be used as an environmental-friendly carbon backbone for hybrid hydrogen storage materials.
