Water near intracellular surfaces
In this paper we make the following points: Water is perturbed within several angstroms of the surfaces of soluble molecules. Removal of this water can require significant amounts of work, seen as an exponentially varying "hydration force" with respect to molecular separation. The favorable and specific attractions that occur in molecular assembly or in ligand binding imply that the specific as...
متن کاملWater-Based Lubrication Preventing Side Grinding Demonstration in Medium-High Water Cut Wells
In order to extend the pump inspection cycle of the seriously-eccentric-wear well, FU-4 water-based lubricant, which can lubricate the boundary and form chemical reaction film and chemical adsorption film on the tubing and pump sucker rods surface, is synthesized by using water-based lubrication theory for reference which has been widely applied in the fields of cutting, grinding and others fie...
متن کاملIntermolecular Casimir-Polder forces in water and near surfaces.
The Casimir-Polder force is an important long-range interaction involved in adsorption and desorption of molecules in fluids. We explore Casimir-Polder interactions between methane molecules in water, and between a molecule in water near SiO(2) and hexane surfaces. Inclusion of the finite molecular size in the expression for the Casimir-Polder energy leads to estimates of the dispersion contrib...
متن کاملPhotoinduced water splitting in pyridine water clusters.
Ab initio calculations predict that pyridine (Py) can act as a photo-catalyst to split water by the absorption of a UV photon following the reaction Py-H2O + hν → PyH˙ + OH˙. To test this prediction, we performed two types of experiments: in the first, we characterize the electronic spectroscopy of the PyH˙ radical in the gas phase. In the second, we evidence the reaction through the UV excitat...
