Investigation of hydrogen physisorption active sites on the surface of porous carbonaceous materials.
Hydrogen physisorption in different carbonaceous materials was investigated in liquid nitrogen (77 K). The total hydrogen adsorption was found to have a linear relationship with the surface area of pores <30 A. The surface area and porosity of the carbon materials were determined by dinitrogen adsorption at 77 K and density function theory (DFT). The active sites for hydrogen adsorption were investigated and found to be related to the edge orientation of defective graphene micro-sheet domains.
