Effects of particulate morphology, texture, and surface structures of various sorbents on bound water characteristics at low temperatures by V. M. Gun'ko, V. V. Turov

“…Upon volume infilling of pores by water, the textural and morphological effects (leading to the freezing/melting point depression) could be stronger than the effect of the surface structure (leading to the reorganization of bound water), because only one-two adsorption layers are well sensitive to the surface structure (polar or nonpolar surface functionalities). …”
