Mechanochemistry–the utilization of mechanical forces to induce chemical reactions–is a
rarely considered tool for polymer synthesis. It offers numerous advantages such as reduced …

Hydrogen and methane can be molecularly incorporated in ice-like water structures up to
mass fractions of 4.3% and 13.3%, respectively. The resulting solid structures, called gas …

The large demand of natural gas consumption requires an effective technology to purify and
store methane, the main component of natural gas. Metal–organic frameworks and gas …

Gas hydrates are crystalline solids composed of water and gases. They occur abundantly in
nature and are potentially significant to industry. Solid surfaces and confined spaces …

Hydrogen hydrate is a promising material for safe and potentially cost-effective hydrogen
storage. In particular, hydrogen hydrate has potential for applications in large-scale …

Gas hydrate accumulation and hydrate-based gas storage and transportation technology
are intimately linked to the formation process of hydrates in the pore space. However, the …

Confinement of water and methane in mesopores of hydrophobized SBA-15 is
demonstrated to promote methane hydrate formation. In comparison to as-synthesized SBA …

Safe storage and utilisation of hydrogen is an ongoing area of research, showing potential to
enable hydrogen becoming an effective fuel, substituting current carbon-based sources …

Porous media were reported to significantly enhance hydrate nucleation and growth kinetics
due to abundant specific surface area and pore texture, but the mechanisms behind the …

Biomethane is a renewable natural gas substitute produced from biogas. Storage of this
sustainable energy vector in confined clathrate hydrates, encapsulated in the pores of a host …
