Microscopic Measurements and Modeling of Hydrate Formation Kinetics

摘要: : The frequency of the Raman band for methane dissolved in water indicates clustering molecules around molecules. By monitoring trends position this with pressure, it was determined that clusters resemble CH4 trapped 20-coordinated small 512 cavity, basic building block clathrate hydrates. These methane-water act as precursors to hydrate cavity formation and their transformation cavities sI monitored using time resolved spectroscopy. ratio number large obtained a function time. 51262 be slower than cavity. Based on these results, mechanistic model from aqueous phase is proposed.
