Abstract
Using a volumetric technique, phase transitions in the H2O–H2 system were investigated in the vicinity of two points of an invariant equilibrium, L+I h+sII and L+sII+C 1, located at 1.07 kbar and−10 °C and at 3.6 kbar and 1 °C, respectively. Liquid water (L), low-pressure hexagonal ice (I h) and high-pressure cubic (sII) and rhombohedral (C 1) clathrate hydrates were in equilibrium with gaseous hydrogen taken in excess.
