11. Another such situation involves dramatically enhanced viscosity for nonpolar liquids, when nanoconfinement drives their solidification. Klein and Kumacheva (Klein, J.; Kumacheva, E. J. Chem. Phys. 1998, 108, 6996), in their Appendix A, propose to interpret the drag forces they measure in this case via a viscosity that varies with distance from the tip axis according to the corresponding distance between the tip and sample surfaces, that is, the local degree of nanoconfinement. Analyzing and solving that model is beyond the scope of the present work, however.
