Criteria for Crack Formation and Air Invasion in Drying Colloidal Suspensions by Lilin, Paul, Bischofberger, Irmgard

“…In this regime, the dynamics of the deposit growth is governed by volume conservation across a large range of particle volume fractions and drying times. During drying, water flows radially through the deposit to compensate for evaporation over the solid's surface, creating a negative pore pressure in the deposit which we rationalize with a hydrodynamic model. …”

Organic solid-state photochromism using porous scaffolds by Mollick, S, Tan, J-C

“…The physicochemical properties of these scaffolds — such as pore size and structure, hydrophobicity and electronic character — determine the photoswitching efficiency of the integrated photochromes and, thus, the photoresponsive behaviour of the material. …”

Enhanced thermal characterization of silica aerogels through molecular dynamics simulation by Yeo, Jing Jie, Liu, Z. S., Ng, Teng Yong

“…The results are also of the same order of magnitude as experimental bulk aerogels, but they are consistently higher. By analyzing the pore size distribution on different simulation length scales, we show that such a disparity is due to finite sizes of pores that can be represented, where increasing simulation length scales lead to an increase in the largest pore size that can be modeled.…”

Thermally induced phase separation PVDF membrane fabricated by using NaCl coagulation bath: relation of membrane surface morphology and permeation performance by Chen, Ningyuan, Zhao, Jie, Shi, Lei, Goto, Atsushi, Wang, Rong

“…As 0.5 mol L−1 NaCl was added to the coagulation bath, the membranes displayed a pure water permeability of 1073.9 L m−2 h−1 bar−1 while maintaining a narrow pore size distribution. Compared to the membranes fabricated without NaCl addition, the increment of the PWP contributed to the slight increase in mean pore size from 65 nm to 84 nm. …”
