Boron substituted carbon nanotubes - How appropriate are they for hydrogen storage?
The storage of hydrogen in carbon nanotubes requires appropriate chemical activators in suitable geometry. In this study, the role of boron substitution in carbon nanotubes is demonstrated for activation and storage of hydrogen. (C) 2007 International Association for Hydrogen Energy.
