Energetics of "nanoporous medium-nonwetting liquid" systems is one of the new directions in basic and applied research. In the simple model of a porous media in the form of cylindrical channels, this threshold pressure is described by the Laplace-Washburn equation, where is the surface energy of the liquid is the pore radius and the contact angle (for a non-wetting liquid). Among the systems under investigation are silochromes, zeolites with l...
