Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The pressure-induced amorphization of tetrahydrofuran-clathrate-hydrate, THF-CH, and the polyamorphic transition of the amorphized THF-CH were studied. The effect of the existence of THF molecules on the polyamorphic state of solvent water was discussed from a viewpoint of water polyamorphism. It is found that the THF molecules unstabilize the HDA-like structure of solvent water and stabilize the LDA-like structure. This result suggests that the water polyamorphism relates deeply to the formation of clathrate structure and the segregation of aqueous solution at low temperatures.
