Title : On thermodynamics & experimental evidences of the Kurdjumov and spillover effects in carbon nanostructures, under self-intercalation of high density hydrogen

Abstract:

Experimental evidences and thermodynamics of the self-intercalation of high-density gaseous molecular hydrogen (ρH2 ≈ 0.045 g/cm3 , at 300 K) into surface nanoclusters in highly oriented pyrolytic graphite and epitaxial graphene, as well as the self-intercalation of high density solid molecular hydrogen (ρH2 ≈ 0.5 g/cm3, at 300 K) into graphite nanofibers are considered, with regard to the problem of compact and efficient hydrogen on-board storage. The manifestation and physics of the Kurdjumov and spillover effects in carbon nanostructures, under self-intercalation of high density hydrogen, are discussed. Perspectives of a further development of these results are considered, as well. This work was financially supported by the RFBR (Project # 18-29-19149 mk).

Audience Take Away:

  • They will be able to use the thermodynamic approach and these fundamental results in their studies.
  • This research could be used to expand their research or teaching, with respect to perspectives of solving the urgent problem of compact and efficient hydrogen on-board storage, and other clean energy applications.
