Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular dynamics simulations of the polymerization of aqueous silicic acid and analysis of the effects of concentration on silica polymorph distributions, growth mechanisms, and reaction kinetics
Niny Z. Rao,Lev D. Gelb +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of the polymerization of silicic acid in aqueous solution using the potential developed by Fueston and Garofalini were performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Time, Roasting Temperature, and Grind Size on Caffeine and Chlorogenic Acid Concentrations in Cold Brew Coffee
Megan Fuller,Niny Z. Rao +1 more
TL;DR: The extraction kinetics and equilibrium concentrations of caffeine and 3-chlorogenic acid (3-CGA) in cold brew coffee were investigated by brewing four coffee samples using cold and hot methods, suggesting that the difference in acidity ofcold brew coffee is likely not due to 3-C GA or caffeine concentrations considering that most acids in coffee are highly soluble and extract quickly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electronic structures and energetics of [5,5] and [9,0] single-walled carbon nanotubes.
TL;DR: The present results underscore the slow convergence of SWNT properties with respect to the tube length and uncover small but significant radial distortions along the long axes ofSWNTs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Acidity and Antioxidant Activity of Cold Brew Coffee.
Niny Z. Rao,Megan Fuller +1 more
TL;DR: It was noted that both the concentration of total titratable acids and antioxidant activity correlated poorly with total CQA concentration in hot brew coffee, suggesting that the hot brew method tends to extract more non-deprotonated acids than the cold brew method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physiochemical Characteristics of Hot and Cold Brew Coffee Chemistry: The Effects of Roast Level and Brewing Temperature on Compound Extraction.
TL;DR: Compounds in coffee did exhibit sensitivity to degree of roast, with darker roasts resulting in decreased concentrations for both hot and cold brew coffees, indicating that cold water brewing extracts some compounds less effectively than hot water brewing.
