    The aim of this work is to synthesize a nanostructured Carbon CMK-3 modified with V in order to increase its capacity in hydrogen storage. The approach that we have followed includes synthesis of nanostructures with the experimental study of its adsorption capacity and storage properties. Ordered nanoporous carbon CMK-3 was synthesized via a two-step impregnation of the SBA-15 mesopores with a solution of sucrose using an incipient wetness method. The sucrose–silica composite was heated at 1173 K for 4 h under nitrogen flow. The silica template was dissolved with 5 wt% hydrofluoric acid in order to remove the silica. The template-free carbon product thus obtained was filtered, washed with deionized water and ethanol, and dried. [1] V-CMK-3 was prepared by wetness impregnation using VCl3 as source of Vanadium in order to increase the amount of hydrogen adsorbed. The sample of V-CMK-3 was treated under H2 flow two times at 1173 K. Porous carbon CMK-3 and the sample modified with V were characterized by XRD, FTIR, XPS, BET, TEM and SEM. These studies indicate that it was possible to obtain a CMK-3 replica successfully from SBA-15, using sucrose as a carbon precursor. [2] The surface areas are 1320 m2/g and 1050 m2/g for CMK-3 and V-CMK-3, respectively. While the nanomaterial area is significantly smaller with the incorporation of the metal, CMK-3`s characteristic structure is maintained after the metal is within the host, in agreement with the XRD studies. Measurements of hydrogen adsorption at cryogenic temperatures and low pressures were performed. The nanoparticles of V incorporated onto the nanostructured carbon CMK-3 showed higher hydrogen uptake at low and high pressures than CMK-3. (3.4 wt% and 2.2 wt% respectively of H2 sorption at 10 bar and 77 K).

    Synthesis and characteristics of CMK-3 modified with magnetite nanoparticles for application in hydrogen storage.

    : In this work, we report the synthesis and characterization of iron oxide nanoparticles supported in nanostructured carbon (CMK-3). This material is promising in the application of hydrogen adsorption for energy storage. The material with iron oxide nano particles (Fe-CMK-3) was successfully synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, textural properties analysis, transmission and scanning electron microsco py, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and magnetiza tion studies. A large amount of the iron incorporated as iron oxide nanoparticles was in the magnetite phase. The incorporation of magnetite on the CMK-3 carbon surface significantly improved the storage capacity of hydrogen (4.45 wt% at 77 K and 10 bar) compared with the CMK-3 framework alone (2.20 wt% at 77 K and 10 bar). The synthesized material is promising for hy drogen adsorption by weak bond forces (physisorption). A hydrogen adsorption mechanism was proposed in which the nanoparticles of magnetite have an important role.
