Abstract

The feasibility and perspectives of Al–MCM-41 as hydrogen storage systems were evaluated. The Al–MCM-41 with varying content of aluminum was synthesized by hydrothermal process. Different metal oxides were impregnated over Al–MCM-41 by incipient wetness impregnation (IWI) method. The crystallnity of the samples were interrogated by powder X-ray diffraction. The textural properties were measured by N2 sorption method. The structural properties were established by Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). The gas chromatogram indicates that hydrogen uptake in Al–MCM-41 is strongly dependent on density of Brønsted acid sites and the amount of metal oxide (especially NiO).
