    Abstract: The present invention discloses a hydrate energy-storage temperature-control material and a preparation method therefor. The material includes a refrigerant hydrate and a cross-linked polymer. The preparation method comprises the following steps: first, preparing a refrigerant hydrate by using a high-pressure reactor, and conducting grinding, crushing and sieving to obtain hydrate particles; then, uniformly spraying polytetrafluoroethylene suspended ultrafine powder onto the surface of the hydrate particles by using an electrostatic spraying device, and putting the hydrate particles into a plasma instrument to modify polytetrafluoroethylene so as to allow free radicals to be formed on the polytetrafluoroethylene powder surface; finally, subjecting monomers to graft polymerization with the free radicals on the polytetrafluoroethylene surface under the irradiation of a high-pressure mercury lamp of UV lighting system to stabilize the structure of the material, preparing a final product. According to the present invention, a hydrate energy-storage temperature-control material with good stability is prepared. A method capable of preparing various types of refrigerant hydrate materials is provided. The product can give full play to the advantages of hydrate energy storage and temperature control, can be periodically used, and can be used in various fields such as building, refrigeration, etc.

    Abstract: An in-situ observation device for gas hydrates includes a reactor, which includes a visual tube, a pulling rod, a temperature-controlled seed crystal rod and a spiral adjuster. An upper end and a lower end of the visual tube are respectively equipped with an upper end cap and a lower end cap. The upper end cap defines an air inlet, and the lower end cap defines a liquid inlet. An upper end of the temperature-controlled seed crystal rod is connected to an adjusting flange. The adjusting flange is connected to the spiral adjuster. A lower end of the temperature-controlled seed crystal rod hermetically passes through the upper end cap and is located in the visual tube. The temperature-controlled seed crystal rod defines a cooling liquid channel, and a cooling liquid inlet and a cooling liquid outlet, a seed crystal rod liquid inlet and a seed crystal rod outlet.
