Abstract

While “like attracts like” is common sense for large surfaces, here we show that in a nanopore the effective solid–liquid interfacial tension can be quite independent of the liquid polartiy. Moreover, as the liquid molecules and ions are confined, their behavior can be either reversible or irreversible, depending on the liquid composition. These unique phenomena can be attributed to the confinement effects and the absence of bulk liquid phase in the nanoenvironment.

Keywords: Polarity; Nanopore; Interfacial tension
