In this work, we prepared ultramicroporous carbons (UC) prepared by pyrolyzing poly(vinylidene fluoride) with different carbonization temperatures, and investigated the hydrogen storage behaviors. The surface functional groups and specific elements of UC were confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. Textural properties were analyzed using N₂ adsorption isotherms at 77 K. The hydrogen storage capacity of the UC samples were investigated by BEL-HP at 298 K/10 MPa. From the results, it was found that the hydrogen storage capacity was enhanced with increasing of specific surface area, resulting from the formation of ultramicropore on the UC.
