Abstract

Flow-driven precipitation experiments are performed in model porous media shaped within the confinement of a Hele-Shaw cell. Precipitation pattern formation and the yield of the reaction are investigated when borosilicate glass beads of different sizes are used in a mono-layer arrangement. The trend of the amount of precipitate produced in various porous media is estimated via visual observation. In addition, a new method is elaborated to complement such image analysis based results by titration experiments performed on gel-embedded precipitate patterns. The yield of confined porous systems is compared to experiments carried out in unsegmented reactors. It is found that the obstacles increase the amount of product and preserve its radial spatial distribution. The precipitate pattern is successfully conserved in a slightly cross-linked hydrogel matrix and its microstructure is examined using SEM. The spatial distribution of the precipitate across the cell gap is revealed using X-ray microtomography.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
