Abstract
The universality of an estimate of the minimum size of small particles with equilibrium phase properties is discussed. Liquid drops in the vapor phase and liquid in porous solids are considered. It is found that the sizes of thermodynamically-stable liquid drops and pore sizes are similar when there is stratifying of a fluid on two phases. It is suggested that the minimum sizes of particles with equilibrium phase properties are the same for magnetic materials as well. Examples of experimental data favoring this suggestion are shown.
