Despite significant advancements in the design and modification of materials for hydrogen storage, challenges remain in achieving the desired storage levels to meet Department of Energy (DOE) standards. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have shown potential but face limitations related to stability and moisture sensitivity. This overview discusses the various types of hydrogen storage materials, including metal hydrides and chemical hydrides, as well as their performance metrics, such as reversible capacities and volumetric density, highlighting the need for continued innovation in this field.

ABSTRACT:In spite of the significant progress in the design and modification of materials for specific applications like hydrogen storage, there are still problems to achieve the desired levels of storage. Many MOFs have been designed and have also been synthesized but they are still not suitable enough or can meet the DOE standards due to moisture sensitive nature and the possibility of stability under other operating parameters
