title: Enhanced H2 uptake in solvents confined in mesoporous metal-organic framework.
abstract: Hydrogen uptake at 298 K and 30 bar in hybrid sorbents consisting of n-hexane confined in MIL-101 is found to be 22 times larger than in sole n-hexane. The enhanced solubility in MIL-101, found to be 3 times larger than in mesoporous silica of similar pore size, highlights the key roles played by surface chemistry and accessible surface area.
