Phase behaviour of a fluid in slit-like pores with differently adsorbing walls: application of a density functional approach

Abstract: We study the adsorption of a Lennard-Jones gas in a slit-like pore formed by two walls exhibiting different adsorbing properties. The calculations are carried out by means of a density functional approach. We show that changes in the potential field exerted by one wall can lead to substantial modifications in the phase behaviour of confined fluids.

“…This effect is quite similar to that observed for single-component fluids [13,14]. The occurrence of the layering is the first qualitative difference in the thermodynamic behavior of the two systems in question.…”

“…Therefore, it is of interest to investigate the pore models in which the adsorbing properties of the walls change from identical to opposing. In our recent papers we have investigated the adsorption of single-component fluids in slitlike pores with differently adsorbing walls [13,14]. Using lattice as well as off-lattice models we have observed that when the adsorption energy due to one wall is gradually weakened, a single coexistence envelope, which describes capillary condensation in a pore with two identical walls, splits into several, layeringlike branches.…”

“…Henderson and Sokolowski examined the phase behavior of a Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluid confined in spherical cavities and found a shifted transition toward lower density in a smaller cavity. Zgorski et al calculated the phase behavior of a LJ fluid in a slitlike pore and found that the change in the interaction with surface can lead to a substantial change in the phase behavior compared to the bulk fluid. Salinger and Frink , presented three algorithms for the rapid analysis of phase behavior of confined fluids, with a detailed case study in disordered porous media.…”
