In recent years, search for applicable bidimensional (2D) hydrogen storage materials with high capacity and excellent H2 physisorption properties has attracted considerable attention from scientists and researchers. According to the rational design, and using first-principles calculations, we propose a t-graphene-like boron nitride monolayer (t-B4N4) for hydrogen storage application by replacing C atoms in t-graphene with B and N atoms. The thermal stability and polarization mechanisms of lithium atoms adsorbed at the center of octagons on the t-B4N4 system were evaluated at 300 K using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) calculations. Moreover, Li-decorated double-sided t-B4N4 can store up to 32H2 molecules with an average hydrogen adsorption energy of 0.217 eV per H2 and a maximum hydrogen storage capacity of 12.47 wt%. The reversibility of adsorbed hydrogen was checked and the calculated desorption temperature was 161 K, much higher than the critical point for hydrogen. Based on diffusion barriers, the H2 molecule diffusion kinetics is faster on the t-B4N4 surface than that on t-graphene and graphene.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
