Therefore, the change of the system's energy was determined, differences in HOMO-LUMO molecular levels and the distribution of electrostatic potential as a function of its hydrogenation were simulated. At the same time, the mechanism of graphane reduction to graphene was discussed as a result of interaction with steam from the air. It has been shown that along with the increase in the degree of hydrogenation, the graphane changes its electrostatic potential from negative to positive, simultaneously pushing the negative charge to the edge of the graphene flake. This fact may have an impact on its further chemical reactions, which may significantly limit the sorption properties of graphene. Areas rich in negative charge will prefer chemical reactions with molecules of electrophilic properties, while positive areas with molecules of nucleophilic properties. This determines the elimination of the storage environment of graphene structures used as reversible sources of chemical bonding of hydrogen in order to increase their lifetime as well as sorption capacity.
