Transition Metal-Ethylene Complexes as High-Capacity Hydrogen Storage Media
arXiv:cond-mat/0609068 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.97.226102
Abstract
From first-principles calculations, we predict that a single ethylene molecule can form a stable complex with two transition metals (TM) such as Ti. The resulting TM-ethylene complex then absorbs up to ten hydrogen molecules, reaching to gravimetric storage capacity of 14 wt%. Dimerization, polymerizations and incorporation of the TM-ethylene complexes in nanoporous carbon materials have been also discussed. Our results are quite remarkable and open a new approach to high-capacity hydrogen storage materials discovery.
