The study confirms repulsive microion interactions with modified Poisson-Boltzmann equations, but notes this is less clear under complete lateral confinement. It highlights the irrelevancy of pair potentials in such confined systems.

Area of Science:

  • Physics
  • Physical Chemistry
  • Colloid Science

Background:

  • The Modified Poisson-Boltzmann equation accounts for microion size, influencing effective interactions.
  • Mateescu's comment addresses the behavior of these interactions under lateral confinement.

Discussion:

  • This work validates Mateescu's finding regarding repulsive interactions under modified Poisson-Boltzmann theory.
  • However, it emphasizes that a similar conclusion is not straightforward for completely laterally confined systems.
  • The study argues that the concept of pair potential becomes irrelevant in completely confined configurations.

Key Insights:

  • Effective microion interactions remain repulsive when microion size is considered via Modified Poisson-Boltzmann equation.
  • Complete lateral confinement complicates the determination of repulsive interactions.
