Scientific experts from the Univerzity of J. E. Purkyně from Ústí nad Labem would like to introduce the new scientific focus on nanocomposite membranes for selective capture and reuse of hydrogen.

Nanocomposite membranes for selective capture and reuse of hydrogen.

Nanocomposite materials based on polymer_nanofiber/nanoparticle_Pd(resp.MOF) are prepared and tested as materials for capture and storage of hydrogen for use not only in hydrogen mobility, but also, for example, in molecular hydrogen therapy. The membranes are prepared by electrospinning technology with subsequent chemical modification. The sorption capacity currently achieved is 1.9 wt% hydrogen at T=30°C and atmospheric pressure and 10.6 wt% at T=30°C at a pressure of 4 Bar.
