Enhanced hydrogen storage by spillover on metal-doped carbon foam: an experimental and computational study

Abstract

A lightweight, oxygen-rich carbon foam was prepared and doped with Pd/Hg alloy nanoparticles. The composite revealed high H2 sorption capacity (5 wt%) at room temperature and moderate pressure (2 MPa). The results were explained on the basis of the H2 spillover mechanism using Density Functional Theory.
