This is the pre print version. The definitive version is published in International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, vol. 39(2), pp 890-895A modulated synthesis of Zr-metal organic framework (Zr-MOF) with improved ease of handling and decreased reaction time is reported to yield highly crystalline Zr-MOF with well-defined octahedral shaped crystals for practical hydrogen storage applications. The Zr-MOF obtained from the modulated synthesis showed high thermal and moisture stabilities with enhanced hydrogen storage capacity. Further study suggests that the modulated synthesis of Zr-MOF may lead to the development of a flow-through synthesis process.enZirconium-metal organic frameworkModulated synthesisHydrogen storageNucleation rateModulated synthesis of zirconium-metal organic framework (Zr-MOF) for hydrogen storage applicationsArticleRen, J., Langmi, H.
