Abstract

There are several well-known materials for the hydrogen storage such as metallic alloy, carbon nanomaterials, non-carbon nanomaterials, and compounds etc. Efficient and inexpensive hydrogen storage methods are an essential prerequisite for the utilization of hydrogen, one of the new and clean energy sources. Many researches have been widely performed for the hydrogen storage techniques and materials to improve the high storage capacity and stability. In this paper, the patents concerning the non-carbon nanomaterial hydrogen storage method were collected and analyzed. The search range was limited in the open patents of Korea(KR), Japan(JP), USA(US) and European Union(EP) from 1996 to 2007. Patents were collected by using key-words searching and filtered by filtering criteria. The trends of the patents was analyzed by the years, countries, companies. and technologies.
