Table 2. For both passivations the diffusion coefficients for all the simulated cases are shown: Pure water, pure oil, oil with adsorbed water layer on the surface.

Passivation Region Fluid Fluid in the Nanopore
Pure oil Pure water Adsorbed water and oil
SiOH-Rich 1 Water 2.03 × 10−5
SiOH-Rich 2 Water 3.10 × 10−7 2.63 × 10−6
SiOH-Rich 1 Oil 1.35 × 10−5 1.94 × 10−6
SiOH-Rich 2 Oil 1.28 × 10−7
SiOSi-Rich 1 Water 1.79 × 10−5
SiOSi-Rich 2 Water 7.70 × 10−7 4.01 × 10−7
SiOSi-Rich 1 Oil 7.39 × 10−6 1.11 × 10−5
SiOSi-Rich 2 Oil 1.43 × 10−7

All the values are diffusion coefficients with cm2/s units. The region 1 is from the center of the nanopore up to the inner radius. The region 2 is for radius bigger than the inner radius.
