  We present a Temperature Programmed Desorption (TPD) study on H2 adsorption on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) at very low pressure (< 10-6 Torr) and temperature (12-30 K). Our results show a hydrogen take up limit in the range of 10-8 mol per gram depending on the adsorption temperature. We compare the MWNT cryosorption capacity with that of commonly used activated carbon and discuss the possibility of employing MWNT as cryosorber in large particle accelerators.
