Abstract |
We investigated the effect of confinement on the phase behavior of hexane in nanopores of mesoporous silica at varying pore diameters and temperatures using a patented gravimetric apparatus. The adsorption and desorption isotherms were experimentally measured, and the capillary condensation and evaporation pressures were calculated from the isotherms. The results show that, for all pore sizes and temperatures utilized here, the confinement of fluids significantly lowers the vapor-liquid phase transition pressures. However, its evaporation, |
