Transformations in methane hydrates [PDF]
Detailed study of pure methane hydrate in a diamond cell within situoptical, Raman, and x-ray microprobe techniques reveals two previously unknown structures, structure II and structure H, at high pressures. The structure II methane hydrate at 250 MPa has a cubic unit cell ofa= 17.158(2) Å and volumeV= 5051.3(13) Å3; structure H at 600 MPa has a ...
