THE clathrate type of molecular compound is formed by the imprisonment of one sort of molecule in some kind of cage structure of the other component. In the compound the molecular component M is ...

Currently, nickel-based compounds are considered to be good and inexpensive catalysts for the alkaline oxygen evolution reaction. This is where Dr. Prashanth Menezes and his team come in.

This process is similar to clathrate hydrate formation, which occurs in water under low temperature and high-pressure conditions. However, both the enthalpy and entropy of formation of the (MeG)2(PEDS ...

Quinol forms clathrate compounds with a number of elements and compounds, and X-ray crystallographic studies of some of these have been made (see, for example, ref. 1).

The core of the Clathrate Gun Hypothesis revolves around a relatively simple idea. As Earth’s temperature rises due to various factors, these ice-like clathrate deposits could become destabilized.

Cage-like compounds called clathrates could be used for harvesting waste heat and turning it into electricity. UC Davis chemists just discovered a whole new class of clathrates, potentially ...

Methane clathrate, also known as methane hydrate or fire ice, a naturally existing solid compound that brings together two unlikely companions: water and methane gas. Water molecules form a "cage" ...

Compounds could be basis for devices that turn waste heat into electricity Date: March 6, 2017 ... A clathrate is basically a cage of atoms with another atom trapped inside, ...

Methane hydrates are clathrate compounds, where the methane molecules are trapped in a lattice of water ice—hence their alternate names, methane clathrate and methane ice.
