Molecular dynamics studies of straight-chain alkanes diffusion in SiO2 ceramic versus Bosanquet formula
Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations were applied to calculate self-diffusion coefficients (Di ) and heats of adsorption for ethane, propane and n-butane. The simulations were done in temperature range of 300-525 K for various concentrations inside the pores of silicalite type zeolite. The calculated values of self-diffusion coefficients and heats of adsorption resulted from the current wo...
متن کاملOrtho-phenylenediamine Based Bis-ureas as the Ion Selective Sensors; A QM/MD Study
Density functional theory dispersion corrected (DFT-D3)calculations and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation were applied to investigate the sensing ability of four types of receptors (RCs) composed of the ortho-phenylenediamine based bis-ureas for selective complexation with the anions such as Cl–, Br–, OAC–, PhCO2–, H2PO4– and HSO4– in the gas phase and DMSO. On the basis of the data obtained fr...
متن کاملKinetics of adsorption of pure and mixtures of linear and branched C6 alkanes onto silicalite by non-equilibrium molecular dynamics
The separation of saturated branched and linear alkanes may be investigated by selective adsorption on microporous organophilic MFI type zeolite. From the literature, adsorption equilibria of mixtures show a favourable selectivity for less branched alkanes [1]. However the separation process is significantly influenced by the transport properties. The knowledge of the transport coefficients of ...
متن کاملTripeptide arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) for delivery of Cyclophosphamide anticancer drug: A computational approach
Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed on tripeptide arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) as an efficient drug carrier to deliver the commercially famous cyclophosphamide (CP) anticancer drug within ethanol solution. The most negative binding energy (-5.22 kcal/mol) was measured for the CP-RGD-7 created through the H-bond interaction between the P=O (phosphoryl) oxygen atom o...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of longer n-alkanes in silicalite: state-of-the-art models achieving close agreement with experiment.
The diffusion of longer n-alkanes (n-C8-n-C16) in silicalite was studied using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations at a temperature range of 300-400 K, with loadings appropriate for direct comparison with previously carried out quasielastic neutron scattering (QENS) studies. The calculated diffusion coefficients were in close agreement with experimental values, significantly closer than those c...
