Strain effect on the hydrogen storage capacity of graphite oxide

摘要

In this study we investigated the effect of strain on the interlayer separation of graphite oxide (GO). This high-energy milling process is used to provide defects in graphite structure via mechanical impact of balls during the milling process. After the milling process this parameter is found to increase about 10%, showing a possibility to improve uptake hydrogen capacity. We will discuss the results in terms of defect density and crystal structure along with the thermal stability of GO structure
