Summary Acetylene (C 2 H 2 ) is an important fuel for fuel cells, welding, and metal cutting. In this paper, a defected MIL‐53 is reported for C 2 H 2 storage. The defects were simply generated by ball milling MIL‐53. Furthermore, it was found that the adsorption of C 2 H 2 on the defected MIL‐53 is stronger than that on MIL‐53 without defection, reflected by adsorption heat increase from 19.3 to 25.5 kJ/mol. As a result, the specific reversible C 2 H 2 capacity per surface area increased with increasing defects. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
