Amorphous and crystalline phases in thermal quench simulations of alumina.
The authors report molecular dynamics simulations of alumina (Al2O3) during crystallization from the melt. Using liquid quench methods, they investigate the effect of cooling rate on the structural evolution of the alpha, kappa, and the bixbyite phases. A critical temperature window is identified, where the time spent in this window is crucial in determining the extent to which the systems appr...
متن کاملFrom lime to silica and alumina: systematic modeling of cement clinkers using a general force-field.
Thirteen different cement-clinker crystalline phases present in the lime-silica-alumina system have been systematically modeled using a simple and general force field. This constitutes a new type of approach towards the study of lime-silica-alumina systems, where the simpler and more transferable Lennard-Jones potential was used instead of the more traditional Buckingham potential. The results ...
متن کاملIon dynamics at porous alumina surfaces
Anodic porous alumina has broad applications for fabricating self-assembled nanostructures, for which atomistic understanding of ionic transport at pore surfaces is indispensable. Here, molecular-dynamics simulation of amorphous alumina with a cylindrical pore under electric field shows correlated anion (oxygen)-cation (aluminum) transport at the pore surface, as opposed to ordinary drift motio...
متن کامل2D or not 2D: structural and charge ordering at the solid-liquid interface of the 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ionic liquid.
Molecular dynamics simulations of a 5 nm-thick layer of the ionic liquid 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [(OH)C2C1im][BF4], over silica, alumina and boro-silicate glass substrates have been performed. The structure of the ionic liquid at the solid-liquid interface has been interpreted taking into account the corresponding normal density profiles, lateral interfacial st...
متن کاملMolecular Interaction of Benzalkonium Ibuprofenate and its Discrete Ingredients with Human Serum Albumin
Studying the interaction of pharmaceutical ionic liquids with human serum albumin (HSA) can help investigating whether or not ionic liquid formation can enhance pharmacological profile of the discrete ingredients. In this respect, in the present work, the interactions of Benzalkonium Ibuprofenate, as a well-known active pharmaceutical ionic liquid, Benzalkonium Chloride, and also Sodium Ibuprof...
