title: Nanoconfinement of lithium borohydride in Cu-MOFs towards low temperature dehydrogenation.
abstract: Successful synthesis and investigation of a new material that uses copper-metal-organic frameworks (Cu-MOFs) as the template for loading LiBH(4) are reported. The nanoconfinement of LiBH(4) in the pores of Cu-MOFs results in an interaction between LiBH(4) and Cu(2+) ions, enabling the LiBH(4)@Cu-MOFs system to achieve a much lower dehydrogenation temperature than pristine LiBH(4).
