Dataset on investigating nucleation and growth kinetics of methane hydrate in aqueous methanol solutions.

This work systematically investigates the effect of methanol (MeOH) in a wide range of concentrations (0, 1, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 mass%) on methane hydrate nucleation and growth kinetics. Multiple measurements of gas hydrate onset temperatures and pressures for CH-HO and CH-MeOH-HO systems were performed by ramp cooling experiments (1 K/h) using sapphire rocking cell RCS6 apparatus.

Data on searching for synergy between alcohol and salt to produce more potent and environmentally benign gas hydrate inhibitors.

In order to systematically study the synergistic effect of gas hydrate inhibition with mixtures of methanol (MeOH) and magnesium chloride (MgCl), the impact of these compounds on the thermodynamic stability of methane hydrate in the systems of CH-MeOH-HO, CH-MgCl-HO, and CH-MeOH-MgCl-HO was experimentally investigated. The pressure and temperature conditions of the three-phase vapor-aqueous solution-gas hydrate equilibrium were determined for these systems. The resulting dataset has 164 equilibrium points within the range of 234-289 K and 3-13 MPa.

Polyurethane/-Octadecane Phase-Change Microcapsules via Emulsion Interfacial Polymerization: The Effect of Paraffin Loading on Capsule Shell Formation and Latent Heat Storage Properties.

Organic phase-change materials (PCMs) hold promise in developing advanced thermoregulation and responsive energy systems owing to their high latent heat capacity and thermal reliability. However, organic PCMs are prone to leakages in the liquid state and, thus, are hardly applicable in their pristine form. Herein, we encapsulated organic PCM -Octadecane into polyurethane capsules via polymerization of commercially available polymethylene polyphenylene isocyanate and polyethylene glycol at the interface oil-in-water emulsion and studied how various -Octadecane feeding affected the shell formation, capsule structure, and latent heat storage properties.

Dataset for the experimental study of dimethyl sulfoxide as a thermodynamic inhibitor of methane hydrate formation.

To determine the ability of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to inhibit methane hydrate formation by the thermodynamic mechanism, we measured the pressures and temperatures of monovariant equilibrium of three phases: gaseous methane, aqueous DMSO solution, and methane hydrate. A total of 54 equilibrium points were obtained. Hydrate equilibrium conditions have been measured for eight different concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide ranging from 0 to 55 mass%, at temperatures of 242-289 K and pressures of 3-13 MPa.

Dataset for the phase equilibria and PXRD studies of urea as a green thermodynamic inhibitor of sII gas hydrates.

The equilibrium conditions of sII methane/propane hydrates have been experimentally determined for the CH/CH-HO-urea system. The equilibrium dissociation temperatures and pressures of sII hydrates span a wide -range (266.7-293.

Dataset for the dimethyl sulfoxide as a novel thermodynamic inhibitor of carbon dioxide hydrate formation.

The temperatures and pressures of the three-phase equilibrium V-L-H (gas - aqueous solution - gas hydrate) were measured in the CO - HO - dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) system at concentrations of organic solute in the aqueous phase up to 50 mass%. Measurements of CO hydrate equilibrium conditions were carried out using a constant volume autoclave by continuous heating at a rate of 0.1 K/h with simultaneous stirring of fluids by a four-blade agitator at 600 rpm.

Performance of Waterborne Polyurethanes in Inhibition of Gas Hydrate Formation and Corrosion: Influence of Hydrophobic Fragments.

The design of new dual-function inhibitors simultaneously preventing hydrate formation and corrosion is a relevant issue for the oil and gas industry. The structure-property relationship for a promising class of hybrid inhibitors based on waterborne polyurethanes (WPU) was studied in this work. Variation of diethanolamines differing in the size and branching of -substituents (methyl, -butyl, and -butyl), as well as the amount of these groups, allowed the structure of polymer molecules to be preset during their synthesis.
