Our research laboratory is working on hydrogen storage materials. We have enough facilities to work on all aspects of hydrogen storage. such as a high pressure (200bar) high temperature (600oC) PCI system, a microbalance system with in-situ hydrogen charging up to 70 bar, high energy ultrasonic machine, vacuum furnaces, ovens etc.
