Abstract: As one of the promising H2 storage materials, porous coordination polymers (PCPs), also known as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), have been extensively studied for the past decade. PCPs are crystalline materials constructed by metal ions and organic linkers to have micropores. We overview PCPs that have been developed for H2 storage materials to summarize their structures, organic linkers, and physical properties. The big issue is the gap of H2 storage capacity between at cryogenic temperature and room temperature. Furthermore, we describe the prospects of PCPs as H2 storage material.
