The Hydrogen Delivery and Storage Research Division focuses on metallic structural materials for hydrogen delivery and storage systems, as well as polymer-based components and sealing materials, hydrogen tribology, and hydrogen-related physical properties. Based on these studies, the division develops materials and technologies compatible with hydrogen over a range of pressures and temperatures and conducts collaborative R&D with industry partners for application in hydrogen infrastructure and utilization systems.

To maximize the efficiency of high-pressure hydrogen testing resources, the division also incorporates machine learning and materials informatics into systematic materials research. Leveraging its expertise in materials science, the division provides key experimental data relevant to high-pressure hydrogen systems and high-density storage materials, establishes reliable compatibility assessment frameworks and actively disseminates research outcomes to industry.
