- •
Significant surface effect by the hydrophobic surface leading to less hydrate growth.
- •
The hydrophobic surface increased the nucleation time in pure water.
- •
Only 0.02 wt% KHI was needed in the coated crystallizer to reduce hydrate growth.
- •
Correlation between work of adhesion estimates and experimental hydrate growth results.
