Abstract

Local density profiles of molecular hydrogen adsorbed at 20.3 K in a plane-parallel pore of graphite adsorbent have been calculated using the method of density functional. It is shown that the optimum hydrogen storage is ensured by porous graphite structures with the pore width corresponding to five to six removed graphene layers.
