Molecular dynamics computer simulations are used to study the structure and dynamics of 1-nm wide films of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) confined between mica-type layered silicates of different cation exchange capacities (CEC). The simulation setup mimics experimental systems formed by intercalation of PEO in montmorillonite alumino-silicates with varied inherent charges. It is shown that the presence and population of lithium has a significant influence on the behavior of the system, in addition to the confinement-induced effects caused by the extreme spatial restriction. The structural features of the confined PEO are strongly altered with the number of Li+, which determines the polymer/inorganic interactions. The combination of the nanoconfinement and the presence of lithium preclude regular ordered arrangements of PEO, similar to those observed in the bulk unconfined polymer. The segmental dynamics of PEO in confinement are also greatly influenced by the presence of lithium, because of the strong interaction between Li+ and the oxygen of the PEO backbone. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Molecular-Dynamics computer simulations were used to study 2 nm wide polystyrene films confined in slit pores, defined by
inorganic crystalline surfaces. The simulated systems mimic experimentally studied hybrid materials, where polystyrene is
intercalated between mica-type, atomically smooth, crystalline layers. A comparison between the experimental findings and
the simulation results aims at revealing the molecular origins of the macroscopically observed behavior, and thus provide
insight about polymers in severe/nanoscopic confinements, as well as polymers in the immediate vicinity of solid surfaces.
Pronounced dynamic inhomogeneities are found across the 2 nm thin film, with fast relaxing moieties located in low local density
regions throughout the film. The origins of this behavior are traced to the confinement-induced density inhomogeneities, which
are stabilized over extended time scales by the solid surfaces.

This is a continuation of our earlier investigation (Gurtuet al 1974Phys. Lett. 50 B 391) on multiparticle production in proton-nucleus collisions based on an exposure of emulsion stack to 200 GeV/c beam at the NAL. It is found that the ratioR em = 〈n s〉/〈n ch〉, where 〈n ch〉 is the charged particle multiplicity in pp-collisions, increases slowly from about 1 at 10 GeV/c to 1·6 at 68 GeV/c and attains a constant value of 1·71 ± 0·04 in the region 200 to 8000 GeV/c. Furthermore,R em = 1·71 implies an effectiveA-dependence ofR A =A 0.18,i.e., a very weak dependence. Predictions ofR em on various models are discussed and compared with the emulsion data. Data seem to favour models of hadron-nucleon collisions in which production of particles takes place through adouble step mechanism,e.g., diffractive excitation, hydrodynamical and energy flux cascade as opposed to models which envisage instantaneous production. 相似文献

The eigen frequencies of radial pulsations of neutron stars are calculated in a strong magnetic field. At low densities we
use the magnetic BPS equation of state (EOS) similar to that obtained by Lai and Shapiro while at high densities the EOS obtained
from the relativistic nuclear mean field theory is taken and extended to include strong magnetic field. It is found that magnetized
neutron stars support higher maximum mass whereas the effect of magnetic field on radial stability for observed neutron star
masses is minimal. 相似文献

This paper addresses the matter of mechanistic features of ultrasound-assisted permanganate oxidation of organic compounds in aqueous phase. This reaction system is essentially a liquid–liquid heterogeneous one, which is limited by the mass transfer characteristics. Previous research has established that ultrasound irradiation of reaction mixture enhances the kinetics and yield of permanganate oxidation. The principal physical effect of ultrasonic cavitation is formation of fine emulsion between immiscible phases that eliminates the mass transfer resistance, while principal chemical effect is production of radicals through transient collapse of cavitation bubbles, which accelerate the reaction. In this paper, we have tried to discriminate between these physical and chemical effects by coupling experiments with different conditions (which alter the nature of cavitation phenomena in the medium) to simulations of cavitation bubble dynamics. It is revealed that in absence of radical conserving agent, the enhancement effect is merely physical. Diffusion of radicals towards interface between phases, where the oxidation reaction occurs is the limiting factor in contribution of chemical effect of ultrasonic cavitation towards enhancement of oxidation. Enhancement of total radical production in the aqueous phase (by degassing of the medium) increases the overall oxidation yield, but only marginally. On the other hand, addition of a radical conserver such as FeSO4·7H2O results in marked enhancement in oxidation yield, as the conserver assists deeper penetration of radicals in the aqueous medium and diffusion towards interface. 相似文献

We employ atomistic computer modeling to investigate the structure and morphology of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) chains confined in 1-nm slit pores defined by montmorillonite silicate layers. Molecular dynamics computer simulations reveal the Li+ cations to be located in the immediate vicinity of the silicate surfaces and PEO to adopt highly amorphous conformations in a liquidlike bilayer across the slit pores. Despite the orienting influence of the parallel stacked silicate walls, PEO shows no indication of crystallinity or periodic ordering; in fact, for all temperatures simulated, it is less ordered than the most disordered bulk PEO system. These amorphous PEO film configurations are attributed to the combination of severe spatial confinement and the strong coordination of ether oxygens with the alkali cations present in the interlayer gallery. These conclusions challenge the picture traditionally proposed for intercalated PEO, but they agree with a plethora of experimental observations. Indicatively, the simulation predictions are confirmed by wide-angle neutron scattering and differential scanning calorimetry experiments on PEO/montmorillonite intercalates. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Ce0.8Eu0.2O2?δ was synthesized by conventional solid state route as well as wet chemical route (i.e. cation complexation, combustion method). The crystallite size obtained for cation complexation and combustion samples is 14 and 19 nm while their surface area is 11.70 and 29.63 m2g?1 respectively. Cation complexation synthesized product lead to formation of agglomerates and hence the sintered sample showed porosity compared to combustion synthesized sample. However, despite high packing density the combustion synthesized sample showed lower grain boundary, total conductivity than cation complexation synthesized product due to the formation of siliceous film at the grain boundary. 相似文献

Monte Carlo simulations are reported to study the structure of polymers adsorbed from solution onto strongly attractive, perfectly smooth substrates. Six systems spanning a range of molecular weight distributions are investigated with a coarse-grained united atom model for freely rotating chains. By employing a global replica exchange algorithm and topology altering Monte Carlo moves, a range of monomer-surface attraction from weak (0.27kT) to strong (4kT) is simultaneously explored. Thus for the first time ever, equilibrium polymer adsorption on highly attractive surfaces is studied, with all adsorbed molecules displaying similar properties and statistics. The architecture of the adsorbed layers, including density profiles, bond orientation order parameters, radii of gyration, and distribution of the adsorbed chain fractions, is shown to be highly dependent on the polydispersity of the polymer phase. The homology of polymer chains, and the ergodicity of states explored by the molecules is in contrast to the metastable, kinetically constrained paradigm of irreversible adsorption. The structure of more monodisperse systems is qualitatively similar to experimental results and theoretical predictions, but result from very different chain conformations and statistics. The polydispersity-dependent behavior is explained in the context of the competition between polymers to make contact with the surface. 相似文献
