Clathrate hydrates are complex water structures that contain foreign guest molecules inside a host water-molecule shell. A predicted clathrate hydrate phase structure has been stably synthesized in ...

Methane hydrates are a kind of ice that contains methane, and that form at certain depths under the sea or buried in permafrost. They can also form in pipelines that transport oil and gas, leading to ...

The LOH-Theory is based on the following original discoveries: highly-concentrated semi-liquid water systems saturated with functional organic substances have, at around 290 K, the so-called ...
