Ion transport in nanopores is crucial for various biological and technological processes, exhibiting unique behaviors compared to bulk solutions. In this study, we systematically explore how polyethylene glycol (PEG) modulates ion transport within a conical nanopore. Our experiments reveal that introducing PEG into the ionic solution induces a reversal in ion current rectification (ICR). We further investigate the impact of PEG concentration, molecular weight, nanopore size, and cation type on ion transport. Additionally, we assess three different configurations of PEG introduction, identifying diffusive flow driven by an asymmetric cation distribution within the nanopore as a dominant transport mechanism. Our results confirm that the interactions between PEG and cations significantly affect ion transport properties. These findings advance our understanding of macromolecular crowding effects on ion transport and suggest potential applications in iontronic devices and biomolecule sensing.
