The chemical principle of hydrogen uptake by carbon nanotubes was proven to be the physisorption of supercritical gases. This conclusion was reached based on the value of the adsorption heat evaluated from a set of adsorption isotherms for a wide range of temperature and pressure as well as the fitness of the model for supercritical adsorption with the experimental isotherms. The specific surface area of the nanotubes and the temperature of storage control the capacity. The adsorption of methane on dry carbon nanotubes behaves the same way as the adsorption of hydrogen . However, the storage of methane in wet carbon nanotubes is based on the formation of methane hydrate and the size of pore volume controls the storage capacity. The storage capacity in wet multiwalled carbon nanotubes is 5.1 times higher than in dry nanotubes, and the single wall carbon nanotubes might be the best carrier of methane.
Key words: carbon nanotubes, energy storage, hydrogen, methane
