We discuss the growth process of a crystalline phase out of a metastable over-compressed liquid that is brought into contact with a crystalline substrate. The process is modeled by means of molecular dynamics. The particles interact via the Lennard-Jones potential and their motion is locally thermalized by Langevin dynamics. We characterize the relaxation process of the solid-liquid interface, ...

in this study a simple and general chemical association theory is introduced. the concept of infinite equilibrium model is re-examined and true mole fractions of associated species are calculated. the theory is applied to derive the distribution function of associated species. as a severe test the application of presented theory to the van der waals mixture model is introduced in order to perfo...

We present Thermobar, a new open-source Python3 package for calculating pressures, temperatures, and melt compositions from mineral mineral-melt equilibrium. Thermobar allows users to perform calculations with >100 popular parametrizations involving liquid, olivine-liquid, olivine-spinel, pyroxene only, pyroxene-liquid, two pyroxene, feldspar-liquid, feldspar, amphibole amphibole-liquid, gar...

solute transport in unsaturated porous media can be viewed as a coupled phenomenon with waterand heat transport, together with mechanical behaviour of media. in this paper, solute transport is formulatedmathematically considering heat and water flow in deformable porous media. advection, dispersion anddiffusion of chemical species in the liquid phase are considered. convection and conduction fo...

This article summarizes the results of IUPAC Project 2002-005-1-100 (Thermodynamics of ionic liquids, ionic liquid mixtures, and the development of standardized systems). The methods used by the various contributors to measure the thermophysical and phase equilibrium properties of the reference sample of the ionic liquid 1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis[(trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl]amide and its mi...

liquid-liquid equilibrium data for the (water + lactic acid + 2-ethy-1-hexanol) ternary system in t=298.2k and p=1atm were determined and tie- lines related to equilibrium data has been drawn in the phases diagram . the reliability of the experimental tie-line data for this system was as confirmed by using the hand and othmer –tobias correlations. the tie-line data were correlated by means of t...

water contamination due to the wide variety of pesticides used in agriculture is a global environmental pollution problem. in order to reach at sub-î¼gl-1 levels of detection, an efficient extraction technique is required. a simple, fast and economical method, dispersive liquid-liquid micro extraction (dllme), followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was assessed for determining endosul...

a very simple, rapid and sensitive dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (dllme) followed by gas chromatography and flame ionization detection (gc-fid) was developed for the determination of phenol and carvacrol in honey samples. a mixture of 100 µl dichloromethane (extraction solvent) and 0.5 ml acetonitrile (disperser solvent) was rapidly injected into sample solution. thereby a cloudy sol...

an efficient dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction using tetraalkylammonium bromide coated silver nanoparticles (dllme-agnps) prepared in chloroform has been successfully applied as electrostatic affinity probes to the microextraction and preconcentration of terazosin prior to spectrofluorimetry analysis. this technique is based on a ternary system of solvents, where appropriate amount of mi...

RNA molecules in living cells form what look like liquid droplets formed by liquid/liquid phase separation. But unlike the molecules in conventional phase separating mixtures, RNA molecules are transported by molecular motors that consume energy and so are out of equilibrium. Motivated by this we consider what sort of simple rules for the dynamics of model mRNA molecules lead to liquid/liquid p...
