Initial thickness measurements and insights into crystal growth of methane hydrate film
The initial thickness of methane hydrate film was directly measured by suspending a single methane bubble in water at 274.0, 276.0, and 278.0 K. The results show that the initial hydrate film thickness decreases from tens of micrometers to about 10 µm with the subcooling increased from 0.5 K to abou...
