Understanding adsorption in mesoporous materials through lattice-based density functional theory and Monte Carlo simulation
Confining walls induce qualitative changes in adsorbed fluids. Among the most intriguing phenomena is hysteresis, where a pore fills with fluid at a greater pressure than it empties. The causes and mechanisms by which this occurs are intensely investigated yet still poorly understood. Ordered mesopo...
