This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter, we have shown that hopeful hydrogen storage material can be obtained by ordered mesoporous carbons (carbons mesostructured from Korea, CMK-1 and CMK-3) and modified with metal/cations species. The pristine CMK-1 and CMK-3 were synthesized by replication using MCM-48 and SBA-15 as hard templates and sucrose as a carbon source. Incorporation of metal species was carried out by wetness impregnation. The mesoporous materials modified were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS), RAMAN, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and adsorption/desorption N2 isotherms. Carbon modified with metal/cations shows a better capacity for hydrogen uptake than that of the mesoporous carbons. The evolution of high-pressure hydrogen adsorption measured at 77 K shows that composites can significantly enhance hydrogen adsorption capacity and hydrogen storage performance of carbon materials, proving to be prospective candidates for application in hydrogen storage. The improved activity and the larger performance of composite materials are attributed to improved dispersion of uniform metal/cations nanoparticles as well as to efficient use of the support, which may originate a high-surface area and pore volume, allowing a large dispersion of clusters.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Porous carbon materials are widely used and studied in recent years. In this work, three kinds of mesoporous carbon materials were prepared. Firstly, cost-effective pure mesoporous carbon was synthesized. Then nitrogen atoms were introduced into the mesoporous carbon by “in situ” and “post” doping methods respectively. The comparisons of the acid-base properties in different conditions of the three kinds of mesoporous carbon materials with or without nitrogen were studied and revealed by different calorimetric techniques. The three kinds of mesoporous carbons were also applied in pollutants adsorption, hydrogen storage and as supports of precious metals and iron oxide in catalysis. The different performances in applications were related to the different structural and surface properties caused by the N-doping.

Download or read book Carbide Derived Carbons with Tunable Porosity Optimized for Hydrogen Storage written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On-board hydrogen storage is a key requirement for fuel cell-powered cars and trucks. Porous carbon-based materials can in principle adsorb more hydrogen per unit weight at room temperature than liquid hydrogen at -176 oC. Achieving this goal requires interconnected pores with very high internal surface area, and binding energies between hydrogen and carbon significantly enhanced relative to H2 on graphite. In this project a systematic study of carbide-derived carbons, a novel form of porous carbon, was carried out to discover a high-performance hydrogen sorption material to meet the goal. In the event we were unable to improve on the state of the art in terms of stored hydrogen per unit weight, having encountered the same fundamental limit of all porous carbons: the very weak interaction between H2 and the carbon surface. On the other hand we did discover several strategies to improve storage capacity on a volume basis, which should be applicable to other forms of porous carbon. Further discoveries with potentially broader impacts include Proof that storage performance is not directly related to pore surface area, as had been previously claimed. Small pores (

Download or read book Heteroatom doped Nanoporous Carbons written by Babak Ashourirad and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Activated carbons as emerging classes of porous materials have gained tremendous attention because of their versatile applications such as gas storage/separations sorbents, oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts and supercapacitor electrodes. This diversity originates from fascinating features such as low-cost, lightweight, thermal, chemical and physical stability as well as adjustable textural properties. More interestingly, sole heteroatom or combinations of various elements can be doped into their framework to modify the surface chemistry. Among all dopants, nitrogen as the most frequently used element, induces basicity and charge delocalization into the carbon network and enhances selective adsorption of CO2. Transformation of a task-specific and single source precursor to heteroatom-doped carbon through a one-step activation process is considered a novel and efficient strategy. With these considerations in mind, we developed multiple series of heteroatom doped porous carbons by using nitrogen containing carbon precursors. Benzimidazole-linked polymers (BILP-5), benzimidazole monomer (BI) and azo-linked polymers (ALP-6) were successfully transformed into heteroatom-doped carbons through chemical activation by potassium hydroxide. Alternative activation by zinc chloride and direct heating was also applied to ALP-6. The controlled activation/carbonization process afforded diverse textural properties, adjustable heteroatom doping levels and remarkable gas sorption properties. Nitrogen isotherms at 77 K revealed that micropores dominate the porous structure of carbons. The highest Brunauer-Emett-Teller (BET) surface area (4171 m2g−1) and pore volume (2.3 cm3g−1) were obtained for carbon synthesized by KOH activation of BI at 700°C. In light of the synergistic effect of basic heteroatoms and fine micropores, all carbons exhibit remarkable gas capture and selectivity. Particularly, BI and BIPL-5 derived carbons feature unprecedented CO2 uptakes of 6.2 mmol g−1 (1 bar) and 2.1 mmol g−1 (0.15 bar) at 298 K, respectively. The ALP-6 derived carbons retained considerable amount of nitrogen dopants (up to 14.4 wt%) after heat treatment owing to the presence of more stable nitrogen-nitrogen bonds compared to nitrogen-carbon bonds in BILP-5 and BI precursors. Subsequently, the highest selectivity of 62 for CO2/N2 and 11 for CO2/CH4 were obtained at 298 K for a carbon prepared by KOH activation of ALP-6 at 500°C.
