Martin Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 http://physicsweb.org/articles/news/10/8/15/1?rss=2.0 this is a titanium studded organic polymer developed at a Korean lab that is claimed able to store 7.6 percent by weight of hydrogen. so 100 kilograms of the polymer could store 7.6 kilograms of hydrogen. it is a polyacetylene polymer "decorated" by atoms of titanium. a picture of the molecular structure is included making a SPONGE that can soak up a lot of hydrogen even at moderate pressure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swansont Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 hydrogen cars here we come! Now we just have to make hydrogen without using fossil fuels... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insane_alien Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 yeah i know. but one of the issues was storage of the hydrogen. its one more hurdle thats coming down. I'm pro nuclear for the production of hydrogen. we just need to get fusion figured out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
