Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular interactions in intercalated organically modified clay and clay–polycaprolactam nanocomposites: Experiments and modeling
TL;DR: In this article, a combination of experimental (photoacoustic FTIR, XRD) and computational (molecular dynamics (MD)) techniques was used to evaluate molecular interactions in organically modified clay and polymer clay nanocomposite.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling the response of pyrophyllite interlayer to applied stress using steered molecular dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, an atomic model of pyrophyllite interlayer was constructed using steered molecular dynamics simulations and external forces were applied to individual atoms to study the response of the model to applied forces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mineral proximity influences mechanical response of proteins in biological mineral-protein hybrid systems.
TL;DR: The results indicate that the proximity of aragonite has a significant effect on the unfolding mechanisms of proteins when pulled, which will provide very useful information in designing synthetic biocomposites, as well as further the understanding of mechanical response in structural composites in nature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of Mechanical Response of Sodium Montmorillonite Interlayer with Increasing Hydration by Molecular Dynamics
TL;DR: The paper describes the construction of the model, the simulation procedure, and results of the simulations, which provide quantitative stress deformation relationships as well as an insight into the molecular interactions taking place between the clay surface and interlayer water and cations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical properties of the sodium montmorillonite interlayer intercalated with amino acids.
TL;DR: The amino acids arginine and lysine are used as modifiers and the intercalation and mechanical behavior of the interlayer spacing with these amino acids as inclusions under compression and tension are studied using molecular dynamics simulations.
