OAK RIDGE, Tennessee, Nov. 10 (TNSjou) -- The U.S. Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory issued the following news release:
Neutron scattering techniques were used as part of a study of a novel nanoreactor material that grows crystalline hydrogen clathrates, or HCs, capable of storing hydrogen. The researchers, from ORNL and the University of Alicante, or UA, were inspired by nature, where methane hydrates grow in the pores and voids within natural sediments.
