Journal ArticleDOI
Probing the Effect of Side-Chain Length on the Aggregation of a Model Asphaltene Using Molecular Dynamics Simulations
TL;DR: In this article, a series of molecular dynamics simulations were performed to investigate the effect of aliphatic side-chain length on the aggregation behavior of a model asphaltene in water.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduction of Water/Oil Interfacial Tension by Model Asphaltenes: The Governing Role of Surface Concentration
TL;DR: Investigation of the effect of asphaltene concentrations on the interfacial tension (IFT) of the oil/water interface revealed that surface concentration, rather than the commonly used bulk concentration, determines the reduction of oil/ water IFTs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular Dynamics Investigation on the Aggregation of Violanthrone78-Based Model Asphaltenes in Toluene
TL;DR: In this paper, a series of molecular dynamics simulations were performed on Violanthrone78-based model asphaltenes with different aliphatic/aromatic ratios to investigate the aggregation mechanisms of asphtenes in toluene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Laser-sculptured ultrathin transition metal carbide layers for energy storage and energy harvesting applications
Xining Zang,Xining Zang,Cuiying Jian,Taishan Zhu,Zheng Fan,Wanlin Wang,Minsong Wei,Buxuan Li,Mateo Follmar Diaz,Paul D. Ashby,Zhengmao Lu,Yao Chu,Zizhao Wang,Xinrui Ding,Yingxi Xie,Juhong Chen,J. Nathan Hohman,Mohan Sanghadasa,Jeffrey C. Grossman,Liwei Lin +19 more
TL;DR: The laser-sculptured polycrystalline carbides show high energy storage capability, hierarchical porous structure, and higher thermal resilience than MXenes and other laser-ablated carbon materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
One-dimensional self-assembly of polyaromatic compounds revealed by molecular dynamics simulations.
Cuiying Jian,Tian Tang +1 more
TL;DR: N-heptane can prevent the side chains from interfering with PA core stacking while having limited attraction with the cores, which facilitates the 1D self-assembly, providing insights into controlling the self-assembling process in the design of optical and electronic nanodevices.
