  1. 1. Ionic liquids : The solid-liquid interface and surface forces

    Author : Nicklas Hjalmarsson; Mark W Rutland; Rob Atkin; Enrico Gnecco; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ionic liquids; solid-liquid interface; surface forces; nanotribology; atomic force microscopy; quartz crystal microbalance; Jonvätskor; gränsskiktet mellan fasta ytor och vätskor; ytkrafter; nanotribologi; atomkraftsmikroskopi; kvartskristallmikrovåg; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Ionic liquids (ILs) present new approaches for controlling interactions at the solid-liquid interface. ILs are defined as liquids consisting of bulky and asymmetric ions, with a melting point below 373 K. Owing to their amphiphilic character they are powerful solvents but also possess other interesting properties. READ MORE

  2. 2. Water in and on ionic materials : Structure, energetics, and vibrations

    Author : Getachew Kebede; Kersti Hermansson; Marie-Pierre Gaigeot; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; DFT; dispersion interactions; OH stretching frequency; electric field; dipole moment; Hydrogen bond; ionic surfaces; ionic hydrates;

    Abstract : Many chemical and physical phenomena in nature, in industrial processes, and in our daily lives take place at water/solid interfaces. The aim of this thesis is to further our knowledge of such processes at a molecular level. READ MORE

  3. 3. Coarse-Grained Models of Ionic Solutions

    Author : Ryan Szparaga; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Monte Carlo; Classical Density Functional Theory; Coarse-Grained Models; Ionic Liquids; Prewetting; Capillary Condensation; Electric Double Layer; Differential Capacitance.;

    Abstract : Room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) are compounds composed entirely of ions, which are liquid at temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius. Their high ionic strength and strong coupling make them useful for a number of applications, e.g. as electrolytes in supercapacitors. READ MORE

  4. 4. Interfacial behaviours of ionic fluids : Theory and simulations

    Author : Samuel Stenberg; Beräkningskemi; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ionic fluids; Monte carlo; Ewald summation; Thermodynamics; Electrical double layers;

    Abstract : This thesis and the papers included is an \textit{in silico} study of how charged particles interact and behave close to surfaces, and how to treat these interactions in simulations. This type of systems is found in widely different contexts, from capacitors to biological cells. READ MORE

  5. 5. Wheat Storage Proteins at Interfaces

    Author : Jörgen Örnebro; Livsmedelsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Food and drink technology; adsorption; surfaces; interfaces; gliadins; glutenins; Livsmedelsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the properties of wheat storage proteins at interfaces. These proteins are the main constituents of gluten and are recognised for their importance in breadmaking. READ MORE
