Figure 4

The van der Waals attraction (ΦvdW) and electric double layer repulsion (Φedl) between the pore wall and the colloid surfaces, as affected by Na+ concentrations, responded to the variation in interaction distances.

The possible effects of Na+ on the colloid size and hence on the ΦvdW were not taken into account in the calculations (see the Supplementary Information).
