What is Small-Angle Scattering from Confined and Interfacial Fluids : Applications to Energy Storage and Environmental Science about?

The phase behavior of bulk fluids is now well understood and their properties can be predicted accurately using equations of state over a wide range of pressures and temperatures. The behavior of bulk fluids changes dramatically when they are injected into small pores, due to increasing importance of the boundary conditions and molecule-surface interactions. Thus, confinement leads to the emergence of a new set of variables that impact the phase behavior in tight pores but may be neglected in the thermodynamic limit. Examples of such variables are the pore size, shape, and interconnectivity as well as the chemical composition of the pore walls and fluid-surface interaction potential. Due to involvement of numerous systemspecific parameters, a comprehensive understanding of the influence of confinement on the fluid behavior is only beginning to emerge. In addition to their fundamental interest, the ability to understand and predict the phase behavior and dynamics of fluids in natural and engineered porous solids is crucial for a variety of the environment- and energy storage-related technologies. These include the capture and sequestration of anthropogenic greenhouse gases, hydrogen
