Convexity and weak closeness of the set of Φ-superharmonic functions in a bounded Lipschitz domain in Rn is considered. By using the fact of that Φ-superharmonic functions are just the solutions to an obstacle problem and establishing some special properties of the obstacle problem, it is shown that if Φ satisfies Δ2-condition, then the set is not convex unless Φ(r) = Cr2 or n = 1. Nevertheless, it is found that the set is still weakly closed in the corresponding Orlicz-Sobolev space.
