Abstract
We discovered the effect of decrease in the conductivity of nanoporous carbon in the process of sorption of hydrogen. For the description of this effect of hydrogen, we propose a mechanism according to which the concentration of free charge carriers decreases as a result of entrapping of holes by broken carbon bonds in the course of adsorption of the atoms of hydrogen.
