Abstract

The hydrogen absorption behavior of organic-compound clathrate hydrates was investigated using five kinds of organic compounds as well as tetrahydrofuran (THF). These hydrates were pressurized by hydrogen, and Raman analysis, the determination of the amount of hydrogen and calorimetric measurement were carried out. The Raman results show that the samples investigated in this work formed binary clathrate hydrate of hydrogen and each organic compound. The organic-compound clathrate hydrates presented similar performances to that of THF clathrate hydrate regarding hydrogen absorption and heat of dissociation. These results suggested that the organic compounds investigated in this work may become alternatives to THF.
