Entropic selectivity of binary mixtures in cylindrical pores
Entropic selectivity of binary mixtures in cylindrical pores is a scholarly work by Antonio González, J. A. White, and S Velasco, published in 2011 in ''Journal of Chemical Physics''. The main subjects of the publication include materials science, RADIUS, glass transition, Selectivity (electronic), critical radius, cylinder, thermodynamics, volume (thermodynamics), chemical physics, mechanics, chemistry, binary numeral system, SPHERES, supercritical fluid, and stochastic thermodynamics. We show that a simple model consisting of a binary hard-sphere mixture in a narrow cylindrical pore can lead to strong size selectivity by considering a situation where each species of the mixture sees a different radius of the cylinder.
