Theory of the force of Friction Acting on Water Chains Flowing through Carbon Nanotubes
J. B. Sokoloff, A. W. C. Lau
A simple model for the friction experienced by the one dimensional water chains that flow through subnanometer diameter carbon nanotubes is studied. The model is based on a lowest…
Electrical Image Potential and Solvation Energies for an Ion in a Pore in a Metallic Electrode or in a Nanotube
Jeffrey B Sokoloff
Electrical image potentials can be important in small spaces, such as nanoscale pores in porous electrodes, which are used in capacitive desalination and in supercapacitors. It wil…
Hydrophilic Porous Materials as Helmet Padding Able to Prevent Traumatic Brain Injuries
J. B. Sokoloff
The minimum possible value of the average deceleration of the head of a player engaged in an impact sport such as football or hockey, as a result of an impact of his/her helmet wit…
Attainment of a High Concentration of Salt Ions Near a Metallic or Dielectric Wall in a Salt Solution as a result of Electrical Image Forces Near the Wall
Jeffrey Sokoloff
Electrical image potentials near a metallic or a dielectric wall of higher dielectric constant than that of the solution are attractive, and therefore, can concentrate salt ions ne…
Desalination due to Electrical Image Forces
J. B. Sokoloff
It will be shown that for a solution of salt dissolved in water in contact with a metallic wall, the concentration of salt ions (both positive and negative) within a few Angstroms…
Theory of a Possible Mechanism for Lubrication and Surface Protection by an Electrically Neutral Hydrogels
J. B. Sokoloff
It is demonstrated that polymers sticking out of the surface of a neutral hydrogel are capable of preventing adhesive forces from pulling a hydrogel into close contact with a surfa…
