description

Silica based composite material with palladium synthesized by extractive-pyrolytic method is used for hydrogen absorption-desorption experiments. The results obtained of the study on dynamic sorption experiments showed that Pyrex glass based composite sample reaches high hydrogen concentration in the material quite fast. Thought silica gel based composite material rapidly reaches 1/2 of hydrogen load but afterwards the amount of hydrogenation increases slowly. The overall amount of absorbed hydrogen for Pyrex glass based material exceeds the amount of absorbed hydrogen by silica gel based material approximately 5.6 times.
