Hydrogen desorption properties in multiwall carbon nanotubes(MWNTs) were investigated from the view points of not only physical hydrogen molecules adsorption in nano-hole but also chemical hydrogen adsorption on graphite surface. MWNTs with intrinsic closed structure having the blocked hole and MWNTs with open structure were studied through hydrogen thermal desorption technique equipped with gas chromatograph. In order to grow MWNTs with open structure, novel method using oxygen added plasma(CH4/H2/O2) has been introduced. The structure of MWNTs was gradually changed with increasing oxygen addition amount, showing aligned MWNTs bundles and open tube cap at 10% oxygen addition. The precise analysis on thermal desorption spectra on MWNTs with closed structure showed that hydrogen gas was released at three major temperature ranges such as 100-230K, 290-350K, and 600-625K, where the evolved hydrogen amounts were about 1.65wt%, 0.64wt%, and 0.03wt%, respectively. However, in case of aligned and open MWNTs, the evolution peak around 290-350K was highly developed (about 1.9wt%) and the desorption peak at 600-625K was disappeared. The hydrogen desorption activation energy was also calculated. The obtained hydrogen desorption activation energy of MWNTs with closed and open structure at ambient temperature was -18.5kJ/mol H2 and 16.5kJ/molH2, respectively. The hydrogen desorbed between 290 and 330K in MWNTs with open structure was the hydrogen physi-sorbed in nano-hole. And Ni-doping (dispersion) effect on hydrogen storage properties was investigated comparatively. Ni nano-catalysts were expected to effectively dissociate hydrogen molecules in gas phase, providing atomic hydrogen possible to form chemical bonding on carbon surface. The metal nanoparticles were homogeneously dispersed using incipient wetness impregnation method. Hydrogen desorption spectra of MWNTs with Ni nanoparticles showed that about 2.8wt% of hydrogen was released in the range of 340-520K.

An in situ infrared cell capable of studying reactions over heterogeneous catalysts in the temperature range 77 to 773 K has been designed. In particular, the adsorption of formic acid on a model Cu/SiO2 methanol synthesis catalyst was investigated. Exposure of a reduced copper surface to formic acid at 300 K resulted in the formation of both formic acid molecules, which were ligated to the copper catalyst, and chemisorbed bidentate copper formate species. Under temperature-programming conditions, the bidentate species displayed a maximum rate of desorption at 433 K, which correlates to a desorption activation energy of 120 kJ mol−1. In contrast, on the reoxidized catalyst, unidentate formate species were preferentially formed. These exhibited a maximum rate of desorption at a temperature of 408 K, and a desorption activation energy of 113 kJ mol−1. A mechanism was postulated to explain this behavior, and evidence was presented to show that useful kinetic data can be obtained for desorption from a catalyst in the form of a pressed disk.

A new method has been developed to determine the activation energy for hydrogen desorption from steels by means of thermal desorption spectrometry (TDS). This method directly fits the Kissinger’s reaction kinetic formula dX/dt=A(1-X)exp(-Ed/RT) to experimentally measured thermal desorption spectrum and best fit yields the activation energy (Ed) and the value of constant A. It has been proven that this new method is applicable to precise measurement of the activation energy for hydrogen desorption from incoherent TiC particle, coherent TiC precipitate, grain boundary and dislocation in 0.05C-0.20Ti-2.0Ni and 0.42C-0.30Ti steels.

The MgH2 + 10 wt% Na3FeF6 composite resulted in both a reduced dehydrogenation temperature and enhanced sorption kinetics compared to the undoped MgH2 sample. The activation energy for the decomposition of the as-milled MgH2 was 167.0 kJ mol−1 and this value decreased to 75.0 kJ mol−1 after the addition of 10 wt% Na3FeF6 (a reduction by about 92.0 kJ mol−1).
