Raman Spectroscopic Investigation of Hydrogen Storage in Nitrogen Gas Hydrates
Recently, hydrogen storage using clathrate hydrate as a medium has become a hotspot of hydrogen storage research. In the present paper, the laser Raman spectroscopy was used to study the hydrogen storage in nitrogen hydrate. The synthetic nitrogen hydrate was reacted with hydrogen gas under relatively mild conditions (e. g. 15 MPa, -18 ℃). The Raman spectra of the reaction products show that the hydrogen molecules have enclathrated the cavities of the nitrogen hydrate, with multiple hydrogen cage occupancies in the clathrate cavities. The reaction time is an important factor affecting the hydrogen storage in nitrogen hydrate. The experimental results suggest that nitrogen hydrates are expected to be an effective media for hydrogen storage.
