Storing hydrogen with silicon-carbide nanotubes

Storing hydrogen in carbon nanotubes and other nanostructures is still far from reaching commercial maturity. A Japanese research team, however, has developed a new simulation technology that may help better estimate the energy needed to favor the ideal interaction between hydrogen and its storage material.Researchers from the Japan Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (JAIST) have developed a new methodology to assess the technical feasibility of storing hydrogen by using carbon nanotubes. The potential of single-walled carbon nanotubes and other nanostructures as a medium for storing ...
