项目摘要

We seek to open a new research area to tackle one of the most pressing challenges in energy-related technology: hydrogen storage. It has been known for over a century that many rigid organic compounds form crystals that trap solvent molecules within their structures (termed clathrates or inclusion compounds). We believe that removal of the solvent from carefully selected crystals will provide microporous materials of a structure that is perfectly suited to the efficient storage of hydrogen by adsorption. This proposal is high risk because the removal of included solvent from organic crystals often results in the collapse of the structure, however, very recent work has shown that this is not necessarily the case for all clathrates. We plan to investigate six promising crystals, which if stable, will provide very significant loadings of hydrogen under target conditions. The considerable combined expertise of the investigators in the field of organic crystals will assist in these studies and represents an involvement of new expertise to a challenging area of energy research. A successful research programme will lead to IP protection of the concept and then dissemination of the results in high-impact journals. A close collaboration with the engineering division of a major car manufacturer provides guidance on materials requirements and a potential route to commercial exploitation.

我们寻求开辟一个新的研究领域，以解决能源相关技术中最紧迫的挑战之一：氢存储。世纪以来，已知许多刚性有机化合物形成晶体，其将溶剂分子捕获在其结构内（称为包合物或包合化合物）。我们相信，从仔细选择的晶体中除去溶剂将提供具有完全适合于通过吸附有效储存氢的结构的微孔材料。该建议是高风险的，因为从有机晶体中除去所包含的溶剂通常导致结构的崩溃，然而，最近的工作表明，这不一定是所有包合物的情况。我们计划研究六种有前途的晶体，如果稳定的话，它们将在目标条件下提供非常显著的氢负载。在有机晶体领域的研究人员的大量综合专业知识将有助于这些研究，并代表了新的专业知识参与能源研究的一个具有挑战性的领域。一个成功的研究计划将导致概念的知识产权保护，然后在高影响力的期刊上传播结果。与一家大型汽车制造商的工程部门密切合作，为材料要求和商业开发的潜在途径提供指导。
