The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to the University of South Florida (USF) to design, synthesize, and characterize novel sorbent materials for hydrogen storage. The materials would be based on a Metal-Organic Framework and would incorporate Frustrated Lewis Pairs (FLP-MOF). The project would seek to optimize the hydrogen storage capacity of the FLP-MOF systems at ambient temperature and under high pressure. The project would be completed over three Budget Periods (BPs), with a Go/No-Go Decision Point in between each BP.
