Abstract

Anisotropic dodecahedral (D) water cages found in semiclathrate hydrates have unique gas selectivity due to their varied shapes. Herein, the D cages incorporating ideally isotropic rare gases, i.e., Xe, Kr and Ar, were characterized by crystal structure analyses. Stabilization mechanisms of the semiclathrate hydrates by the D cages are discussed.
