English

Subject field(s)
  • Mathematics, Physics and Natural Sciences
  • Electronics and Informatics
  • Medicine and Health
  • Industries
DEF

A cavity with at least one dimension in the nanoscale [range] and that may contain a gas or a liquid.

OBS

The shape and content of the cavity can vary. The concept of nanopore overlaps [the concepts of] micropore(a pore with a width of about 2 nm or less), mesopore(a pore with a width between approximately 2 and 50 nm) and macropore(a pore with a width greater than about 50 nm).

OBS

nm: nanometre.

OBS

When nanopores are appropriately interconnected, they may allow for transport through the material (permeability).

OBS

nanopore: term and definition standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

Key term(s)
  • nano-pore

DEF

Cavité dont au moins une dimension est à l'échelle nanométrique et qui peut contenir un gaz ou un liquide.

OBS

La forme et le contenu de la cavité peuvent varier. Le concept de nanopore [a des points communs avec les concepts] de micropore (pore de diamètre inférieur ou égal à 2 nm environ), de mésopore (pore de diamètre compris entre 2 et 50 nm environ) et de macropore (pore de diamètre supérieur à 50 nm environ).

OBS

nm : nanomètre.

OBS

Quand les nanopores sont interconnectés de manière appropriée, ils peuvent assurer un transport à travers le matériau (perméabilité).

OBS

nanopore : terme et définition normalisés par l'Organisation internationale de normalisation (ISO).
