A computer simulation study of the formation of liquid crystal nanodroplets from a homogeneous solution.
The aggregation of liquid crystal nanodroplets from a homogeneous solution is an important but not well understood step in the preparation of various advanced photonic materials. Here, the authors performed molecular dynamics computer simulations of the formation of liquid crystalline nanodroplets, starting from an isotropic and uniform binary solution of spherical Lennard-Jones (solvent) and e...
متن کاملComplex Formation between Polyelectrolyte and Oppositely Charged Mixed Micelles
Electrophoretic light scattering, dynamic light scattering, turbidity, and static light scattering were used to study complex formation between poly(dimethyldiallylammonium chloride) (PDMDAAC) and oppositely charged mixed micelles of Triton X-100 (TX100) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) in 0.4 M NaC1. Interpolymer complexes form with an increasing bulk weight ratio of PDMDAAC to TX100-SDS, W, a...
متن کاملFormation of Block Copolymer Micelles in Solution: A Monte Carlo Study of Chain Length Dependence
Short block copolymers in a selective solvent (bad for A-block, good for B-block) are modeled by flexible bead-spring chains, where beads interact with short-range Morse potentials of variable strength. In particular, treating the strength EAA of attraction between monomers of the A-block as a variable, we study the mass distribution of the micelles that are formed under conditions that corresp...
متن کاملKinetic models of micelles formation
Four possible aggregation models in surfactant solutions are considered. It is shown that only the model taking into account interactions between clusters of sub-micellar size shows a transition to the micelles formation at a concentration above the CMC.
متن کاملFormation of protein micelles from amphiphilic membrane proteins.
The membrane penicillinase (penicillin amido-beta-lactamhydrolase, EC 3.5.2.6) from Bacillus licheniformis, the Semliki Forest virus spike proteins, and the Sendai virus glycoproteins have each been isolated as soluble protein aggregates that are virtually free of lipid and detergent. The sedimentation coefficients of the complexes were 18 S, 29 S, and 43 S, respectively. Mixed aggregates conta...
