Storing Hydrogen in Carbon Nanohorns

Hydrogen-powered cars seem to be the best solution to the problem of fossil fuels pollution. The ever increasing concerns about global warming and the future shortage of natural fuel sources have given the automotive industry and researchers from other fields alike a new impulse in developin...
