Massive ZnO nanowires with the mean diameter of 20 nm have been rapid synthesized by evaporation of metal zinc at 900degreesC in the quartz tube. Metal catalyst, graphite additive, and vacuum are not necessary, and, more importantly, it is very convenient and effective for large-scale industrialization. The hydrogen storage characteristics of the synthesized ZnO nanowires are investigated at room temperature. The highest storage capacity of 0.83 wt% is achieved under the pressure of about 3.03 Mpa, and about 71% of the stored hydrogen can be released under ambient pressure at room temperature.
