Experimentally, the solubility of oligoglycines in water decreases as its length increases. Computationally, the free energy of solvation becomes more favorable with chain length for short (n = 1-5) oligoglycines. We present results of large scale simulations with over 600 pentaglycines at varying concentrations in explicit solvent to consider the mechanism of aggregation. The solubility limit ...

Using the mixed solvents, (water +ethanol + propanol), the solubility of CdF2 was determined byevaporating method at 25° C. The results showed that the sollbility, s, of CdF2 decreases bydecreasing the dielectric constant of the mixed solvent .Once the solubility of CdF2 was determined,the concentration solubility product, Ksp(c)=4s3, was calculated .Furthermore ,by estimating the meanactivity ...

1. The solubility of mustard (H) in water and in molar sodium chloride was found to be 5.8 x 10(-3) molar and 3.2 x 10(-3) molar respectively or 0.92 mg. per ml. and 0.5 mg. per ml. Solubility curves have been drawn and the usefulness of this method in examining the homogeneity of H preparations as well as in establishing their solubility, is discussed. 2. Certain detergents increase the solubi...

Thallium is released into the biosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources. It is generally present in the environment at low levels; however, human activity has greatly increased its content. Atmospheric emission and deposition from industrial sources have resulted in increased concentrations of thallium in the vicinity of mineral smelters and coal-burning facilities. Increased levels...

The demand for a new solvent to treat oilsands was behind the purpose of this project; molecular dynamics simulation was used in this study. Supercritical water, supercritical carbon dioxide and other selected organic solvents in their supercritical state were studied. Meso-tetraphenyl porphyrin (H2TPP) and Octaethyl porphyrin (H2OEP) are the porphyrin model compounds and, 4’-Bis-(2-pyren-1-yl-...

The effect of dry and wet deposition of semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in the gas phase on the concentrations of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is reassessed using recently derived water solubility information. The water solubility of SVOCs was implemented as a function of their volatility distribution within the WRFChem regional chemistry transport model, and simulations were carried ...

Modification of soy protein film properties by heat-curing was studied. Glycerin-plasticized films were cast from alkaline aqueous solutions of soy protein isolate. Films were heated at 80 or 95°C for 2, 6, 14, or 24 h. Tensile strength (TS), elongation at break (E), moisture content (MC), water solubility (WS), water vapor permeability (WVP), and color of heated and control films were measured...

The solubility of satranidazole in several water-N,N-dimethylformamide mixtures was analysed in terms of solute-solvent interactions and data were treated on the basis of extended Hildebrand solubility approach. The solubility profile of satranidazole in water-N,N-dimethylformamide mixtures shows a curve with a solubility maxima well above the ideal solubility of drug. This is attributed to sol...

the effects of zinc oxide nanorod (zno-n) incorporation on thephysicochemical properties of tapioca starch / bovin gelatin composite film such as water absorption capacity (wаc), water solubility and permeability to water vapour (wvp) were investigated. in this search, zno-n was homogenized by sonication and added into tapioca starch / bovine gelаtin dispersions аt different concentrations (e.g...
