    Abstract

    (Chemical Equation Presented) Three structurally diverse polymers of intrinsic microporosity reversibly adsorb significant quantities of hydrogen (1.4-1.7% by mass at 77 K) and represent the first examples of a new type of purely organic hydrogen storage material, which can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of hydrogen physisorption. © 2006 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
