Water Confined in Mesoporous TiO2 Aerosols: Insights from NMR Experiments and Molecular Dynamics Simulations
The adsorption of water vapor in mesoporous TiO2 was studied by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and multiscale molecular dynamics simulations. Three different water environments were distinguished and quantified: a first layer, where strongly bound water molecules exist at the inner surfaces; a sec...
