The impact of secondary channels on the wetting properties of interconnected hydrophobic nanopores

The intrusion and extrusion of non-wetting liquids has many industrial applications and understanding how the underlying dynamics that govern the interaction of a given liquid and a nanoporous material can help refine performance. Here, using molecular dynamics simulations, the authors consider the...
