Quantifying similarity of pore-geometry in nanoporous materials
In most applications of nanoporous materials the pore structure is as important as the chemical composition as a determinant of performance. For example, one can alter performance in applications like carbon capture or methane storage by orders of magnitude by only modifying the pore structure. For these applications it is therefore important to identify the optimal pore geometry and use this i...
متن کاملNanoporous materials.
The current review article attempts to cover the field of nanoporous materials, thereby materials with voids of the order of 1 nm to 100 nm or even larger. Concepts, that have an effect on a more general basis, are introduced and the common features among the different classes of nanoporous materials are demonstrated enabling understanding their formation and stability. It is seen that the most...
متن کاملCalculations of Pore Size Distributions in Nanoporous Materials from Adsorption and Desorption Isotherms
The recently developed density functional theory method for pore size distribution analysis from nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms is extended to materials with pores ranging from 2 to 100 nm. The method is based on the nonlocal density functional theory (NLDFT) of capillary condensation hysteresis in cylindrical pores. It is shown that NLDFT correctly predicts both the adsorption an...
متن کاملConstruction of Representative Pore Morphologies in Disordered Nanoporous Two-Phase Materials
Materials with nanometer size heterogeneities are commonplace in the physical and biological sciences and often exhibit complex morphologies. Although this morphology has a dramatic effect on the materials’ properties (e.g., transport and reaction processes), it is often difficult to accurately characterize. We describe a method, using a novel analysis of small angle x-ray scattering data, of g...
متن کاملUnderstanding diffusion in nanoporous materials.
Can we predict diffusion behavior of molecules in confinement by looking at the match between the molecule and the structure of the confinement? This question has proven difficult to answer for many decades. As a case study, we use methane and a simple model of ellipsoids to arrive at a molecular picture that allows us to make a classification of pore topologies and to explain their diffusion b...
