Dans le cas d'osmose capillaire, il y a un glissement du liquide sur les surfaces des particules solides. Les parties du liquide adjacent aux surfaces des particules et les parties voisines du centre des pores sont toutes deux transportées et se déplacent comme un ensemble. Ce phénomène apparaît lorsque la concentration de la substance dissoute à une distance de l'ordre de plusieurs diamètres des molécules de la paroi du solide diffère de la concentration du reste du liquide.
