One more thing to add. Absorption/adsorption of hydrogen is usually exothermic - and degassing is usually endothermic. The balance of the two is zero. That much is usually true, with an emphasis on ”usually”. In hydrogen storage technologies, heat is usually added in order to release hydrogen.

Yes, the geometry is very specific – 2-12 nanometers. Higher or lower spacing is no good. In fact, buckyballs (C60) are just a bit too small to experience a Casimir effect, but some forms of CNT (nanotubes) can be part of a Casimir anomaly. For comparison purposes, a sphere of this size
