In particular, we propose models of the considered systems which take into account the anisotropy of the system, specific interactions between colloidal particles and confining surfaces, geometry of particles, and calculate a number of thermodynamic and structural properties of such objects in a porous medium and near a flat wall. Most of the obtained results demonstrate the effects of the confinement of the porous medium on the phase behaviour of patchy particles and on their binding degree. It is shown that the presence of a confinement favours the association between particles and shifts phase diagram toward the region of lower temperatures and smaller densities. The results of the proposed theoretical approaches are supplemented by computer simulations. Product Description popup.authors Hvozd Taras V. Holovko Myroslav F Kalyuzhnyj Yuriy V Kravtsiv Ivan Ya.
