Download or read book Applying Molecular and Materials Modeling written by Phillip Westmoreland and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2002-10-31 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational molecular and materials modeling has emerged to deliver solid technological impacts in the chemical, pharmaceutical, and materials industries. It is not the all-predictive science fiction that discouraged early adopters in the 1980s. Rather, it is proving a valuable aid to designing and developing new products and processes. People create, not computers, and these tools give them qualitative relations and quantitative properties that they need to make creative decisions. With detailed analysis and examples from around the world, Applying Molecular and Materials Modeling describes the science, applications, and infrastructures that have proven successful. Computational quantum chemistry, molecular simulations, informatics, desktop graphics, and high-performance computing all play important roles. At the same time, the best technology requires the right practitioners, the right organizational structures, and - most of all - a clearly understood blend of imagination and realism that propels technological advances. This book is itself a powerful tool to help scientists, engineers, and managers understand and take advantage of these advances.

Download or read book Fundamental Principles of Molecular Modeling written by Anton Amann and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Molecular similarity has always been an important conceptual tool of chemists, yet systematic approaches to molecular similarity problems have only recently been recognized as a major contributor to our understanding of molecular properties. Advanced approaches to molecular similarity analysis have their foundation in quantum similarity measures, and are important direct or indirect contributors to some of the predictive theoretical, computational, and also experimental methods of modern chemistry. This volume provides a survey of the foundations and the contemporary mathematical and computational methodologies of molecular similarity approaches, where special emphasis is given to applications of similarity studies to a range of practical and industrially significant fields, such as pharmaceutical drug design. The authors of individual chapters are leading experts in various sub-fields of molecular similarity analysis and the related fundamental theoretical chemistry topics, as well as the relevant computational and experimental methodologies. Whereas in each chapter the emphasis is placed on a different area, nevertheless, the overall coverage and the wide scope of the book provides the reader with a general yet sufficiently detailed description that may serve as a good starting point for new studies and applications of molecular similarity approaches. The editors of this volume are grateful to the authors for their contributions, and hope that the readers will find this book a useful and motivating source of information in the rapidly growing field of molecular similarity analysis.

Download or read book Molecular Modeling of Polymer Crystallization and the Effect of Nucleating Agents written by Alexander Jules Bourque and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The microstructure in a semicrystalline polymer material ultimately determines its material properties. Despite the abundance of research into the semicrystalline microstructure and its evolution during crystallization, a clear description of its development remains elusive. The advent of advanced computing and algorithms, however, have promoted molecular modeling of polymer crystallization, providing a new perspective on the development of the microstructure. This thesis revisits and challenges many aspects of microstructural development in macromolecular materials by applying new modeling techniques and recent technologies. Through atomistic simulations of n-alkane crystallization, this thesis presents new molecular evidence of surface nucleation processes that contribute to the propagation of the crystal growth front in a macromolecular system. Crystallization in polymeric systems has long been theorized to proceed by "secondary nucleation." In this work, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were engineered to probe this surface nucleation process by systematically inducing crystal growth for a system of macromolecules. In a novel application of mean first passage time analysis, the critical surface nucleus sizes, waiting times, and surface nucleation rates were extracted from atomically-detailed molecular trajectories using a layer-by-layer approach. Insight from MD simulations was used to build a new kinetic model to describe the structure and rate of advancement of the growth front during crystallization. In the model, solidification occurs through the mechanisms of surface nucleation and lateral spreading of the solid phase within layers in the vicinity of the growth front. Transformation within each layer is described by an equation similar to the two-dimensional variant of the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami equation. The kinetic model is computationally efficient and predictive of important macroscopic observables. Finally, this thesis presents the first computational screening of nucleating agents for macromolecular crystallization. Screens were conducted for two families of crystal materials: tetrahedrally coordinated materials isomorphic to diamond and silicon, and 2D, hexagonally coordinated materials isomorphic to graphene. The induction time for heterogeneous nucleation was shown to depend strongly on crystallographic registry between the nucleating agent and the critical nucleus, but the severity of this registry requirement weakened with increasing strength of attraction to the surface of the nucleating agent. In an unprecedented find, the substrate rigidity significantly influenced heterogeneous nucleation. The molecular organization of nalkane chains at the nucleating surface was also investigated to build a fundamental understanding of the mechanisms for heterogeneous nucleation and spreading.

Download or read book Crystallization written by Wolfgang Beckmann and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crystallization is a natural occurring process but also a process abundantly used in the industry. Crystallization can occur from a solution, from the melt or via deposition of material from the gas phase (desublimation). Crystals distinguish themself from liquids, gases and amorphous substances by the long-range order of its building blocks that entail the crystals to be formed of well-defined faces, and give rise to a large number of properties of the solid. Crystallization is used at some stage in nearly all process industries as a method of production, purification or recovery of solid materials. Crystallization is practiced on all scales: from the isolation of the first milligrams of a newly synthesized substance in the research laboratory to isolating products on the mulit-million tonne scale in industry. The book describes the breadth of crystallization operations, from isolation from a reaction broth to purification and finally to tailoring product properties. In the first section of the book, the basic mechanisms - nucleation, growth, attrition and agglomeration are introduced. It ensures an understanding of supersaturation, the driving force of crystallization. Furthermore, the solubility of the substance and its dependences on process conditions and the various techniques of crystallization and their possibilities and limitations are discussed. Last but not least, the first part includes an intensive treatment of polymorphism . The second part builds on the basics, exploring how crystallization processes can be developed, either batch-wise or continuous, from solution or from the melt. A discussion of the purification during crystallization serves as a link between the two sections, where practical aspects and an insight using theoretical concepts are combined. Mixing and its influence on the crystallization as well as the mutual interference of down-stream processes with the crystallization are also treated. Finally, techniques to characterize the crop are discussed. The third part of the book is dedicated to accounts of actual developments and of carried-out crystallizations. Typical pitfalls and strategies to avoid these as well as the design of robust processes are presented.
