At three THF concentrations (5.56, 0.7 and 0.2 mol%) the amount of H2 stored in the cages was measured using an isometric micro-syringe pump. Hydrates were maintained at 1 bar and 270 K for complete release of hydrogen after forming at 120 bar and 270 K. Hydrogen bubbles are observed during hydrate release (inset).
