Understanding the dissociation mechanism of gas hydrates below the melting point of ice is crucial for expanding the practical applications of solid hydrates in gas storage. The kinetic processes for gas hydrates have not been clarified, except for those of pure CH4 hydrate and CO2 hydrates. In this study, using in situ X-ray diffraction analysis, the low-temperature onset of the dissociation of C3H8 and C4H10 hydrate fine particles encapsulating CH4 as a secondary guest was investigated during temperature ramping. At ∼200 K, the C3H8 + CH4 hydrate, n-C4H10 + CH4 hydrate, and iso-C4H10 + CH4 hydrate all dissociated in a single step, similar to pure C3H8 and pure iso-C4H10 hydrate. The dissociation of C3H8 hydrate was also found to accelerate the dissociation of CH4 hydrate. Based on the experimental results, it was confirmed that the C3H8 and C4H10 molecules released from the dissociating hydrates accelerated hydrate dissociation.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
