A conformal solution theory for the energy landscape and glass transition of mixtures
نویسندگان
چکیده
We apply conformal solution theory and extend to mixtures a recently derived equation of state for glass-forming liquids. The equation of state is based on the statistical properties of the multidimensional potential energy surface as a function of a macroscopic system’s degrees of freedom (energy landscape), and allows the calculation of an ideal glass transition locus, along which the configurational entropy vanishes. The landscape mixing approach yields an expression for the composition dependence of the mixture’s glass transition. A non-monotonic composition dependence is predicted by the theory for the glass transition of a binary Lennard–Jones mixture. The composition dependence of species diffusivities obtained b ©

Prediction of Satranidazole Solubility in Water-Polyethylene Glycol 400 Mixtures Using Extended Hildebrand Solubility Approach
The Extended Hildebrand Solubility Parameter Approach (EHSA) is used to estimate the solubility of satranidazole in binary solvent systems. The solubility of satranidazole in various water-PEG 400 mixtures was analyzed in terms of solute-solvent interactions using a modified version of Hildebrand-Scatchard treatment for regular solutions. The solubility equation employs term interaction ...

In this study, effect of asymmetric functionalized graphene oxide (Janus GO) on Young′s modulus and glass transition temperature of Polysulfone (PSf) ultrafiltration membranes was investigated. The membranes were prepared via phase inversion method and GO nanosheets were dispersed in casting solution by sonication. Results showed that the Normalized Young’s modulus (on the basis of neat ...
متن کامل2 Energy landscape - a key concept in the dynamics of glass formers
There is a growing belief that the mode coupling theory is the proper microscopic theory for the dynamics of the undercooled liquid above and around a critical temperature T c. In addition, there is some evidence that the system leaves the saddlepoints of the energy landscape to settle in the valleys at this critical temperature. Finally, there is a microscopic theory for the entropy at the cal...
