    Ionic Mobility in Microcapillaries: A Test for Anomalous Water Structures
    (Journal of the Chemical Society : Faraday Transaction - I. The Chemical Society, London. 1972, 68 (4), 1972) Anderson, John L.; Quinn, John A.
    Evidence is presented that water retains its characteristic bulk properties up to distances as close as a few molecular diameters from a hydrophilic, water-solid interface. This evidence is based on measurements of the ionic mobility within well-characterized microcapillaries. The measurements show that the energy of activation for viscous momentum transport in pores as small as 56 A in radius is virtually identical to the bulk-phase value. These findings contradict the frequent claims for anomalous, ice-like structures near solid boundaries.
