Rapid and reversible formation of a crystalline hydrate of a metal-organic framework containing a tube of hydrogen-bonded water.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The flexible metal-organic framework MIL-53(Cr) undergoes a dramatic volume expansion upon immersion in water at room temperature to form a crystalline hydrate in which water is held as a hydrogen-bonded tube: the hydration is readily reversible under ambient conditions as shown by time-resolved powder X-ray diffraction.

Hydrates are crystalline compounds similar to ice, with guest molecules like methane and ethane trapped inside cavities or cages formed by the hydrogen bounded framework of water molecules. These solid compounds give rise to problems in the natural gas oil industry because they can plug pipelines and process equipments. Low dosage hydrate inhibitors are a recently developed hydrate control tech...

متن کاملPrediction of Hydrate Formation for the Systems Containing Single and Mixed Electrolyte Solutions
In this work the effect of electrolytes on hydrate formation was investigated. To do so, a new model was used in predicting the hydrate formation conditions in presence of both single and mixed electrolyte solutions. The new model is based on the van der Waals - Platteeuw hydrate equation of state. In order to evaluate the values for the activity of water in electrolyte solutions t...

Various nanocomposites of TiO2, ZnO and ZrO2 decorated single wall Carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) were fabricated by facile and template free continuous ultrasonication/stirring of virgin metal oxide nanopowders and SWNTs in ethanol under UV-light illumination. The TEM micrographs showed that nanoparticles (NPs) were uniformly dispersed and bonded on the surface of SWNTs. The results of XRD as well a...
