A high-temperature hot-pressing molding machine includes a mold unit, a heating, unit disposed to heat the mold unit, a heat insulating unit including a surrounding insulating member to enclose the mold unit and two insulating layers disposed on two opposite sides of the mold unit to obstruct heat radiation and conduction from the mold unit, a heat dissipating unit disposed on the insulating layers, a cooling unit disposed on the heat dissipating unit, and a vacuum unit disposed to form a vacuum space. Under a vacuum environment, with the heat insulating unit defining a heat zone containing the mold unit, other component parts adjacent to the heat zone can be prevented from damage in a high temperature operation.

Methods for making lead-carbon coupling, lead-carbon electrode sheets, and a lead-carbon battery are revealed. The coupling methods consist of steps of assembling the carbon material that contains oxygen functional groups or metal precursors and lead material in contact with each other and then heating the assembled lead-carbon pair to form lead oxides or metal carbides as a bridge to form coupled lead-carbon interface with high electrochemical and mechanical stability. This coupled lead-carbon structure is applied to form lead-carbon electrode sheets and is further used as electrode sheets of lead-carbon batteries by lead welding.

The present invention provides a high capacity hydrogen storage material in which a plural mesopore channels and fractal networks of nanopore channels communicating therewith and connecting to the micropores are formed in a microporous material, wherein a plural metal particles are formed on the surface of the mesopore and nanopore channels and of the micropores. In another embodiment, the present invention also provides a method for making the hydrogen storage material through oxidizing the microporous material so as to form a plural mesopore channels and fractal networks of nanopore channels, both of which are connected to the micropores to form a base for the deposition of metal particles capable of decomposing hydrogen molecules into hydrogen atoms. The high capacity hydrogen storage material is capable of increasing the capacity of hydrogen storage, and besides, the oxidizing process for making the hydrogen storage material is simple and has merits of saving cost.
