Abstract:The elastic properties of structure I (sI) methane hydrate (MH) determined by high-pressure Brillouin spectroscopy up to 0.6 GPa at 23℃ are reviewed by comparing them with those of ice-Ih. The pressure dependence of adiabatic elastic moduli of sI-MH is similar to that of ice-Ih except for C 11. Elastic moduli and bulk modulus indicate that sI-MH is slightly more compressive than ice-Ih, and acoustic velocities show nearly isotropic behaviors with respect to the crystal orientation. The C 44 of sI-MH is less se… Show more
