Nanomaterials for Solid State Hydrogen Storage - (Fuel Cells and Hydrogen Energy) by Robert A Varin & Tomasz Czujko & Zbigniew S Wronski (Hardcover)

About the Book

This comprehensive resource covers the fundamentals of nanomaterials for solid state hydrogen storage and offers recent advances in the field. It also includes the results of the authors' own research in the behavior of various hydrogen storage materials.

Book Synopsis

Over the past decade, important advances have been made in the development of nanostructured materials for solid state hydrogen storage used to supply hydrogen to fuel cells in a clean, inexpensive, safe and efficient manner. Nanomaterials for Solid State Hydrogen Storage focuses on hydrogen storage materials having high volumetric and gravimetric hydrogen capacities, and thus having the highest potential of being applied in the automotive sector.

Written by leading experts in the field, Nanomaterials for Solid State Hydrogen Storage provides a thorough history of hydrides and nanomaterials, followed by a discussion of existing fabrication methods. The authors' own research results in the behavior of various hydrogen storage materials are also presented. Covering fundamentals, extensive research results and recent advances in nanomaterials for solid state hydrogen storage, this book serves as a comprehensive reference.
