  • Chapter 3 THERMODYNAMICS of INTERFACIAL SYSTEMS
    Chapter 3 THERMODYNAMICS OF INTERFACIAL SYSTEMS A. The thermodynamics of simple bulk systems 1. Thermodynamic concepts Thermodynamics is in general useful for providing over-arching “rules” that govern the descriptions of macroscopic systems in terms of their properties and their interactions with other systems. The systems usually encountered in textbooks for scientists and engineers are pieces of infinite systems, as pictured schematically in Fig. 3-1(a). Their “boundaries” are completely conceptual and serve only to delineate the extent of the system. Furthermore, it is assumed in formulating thermodynamic descriptions that (a) (b) Fig. 3-1: (a) Thermodynamic systems as finite pieces of an infinite homogeneous system, (b) Simple-compressible system as a fluid in a piston-cylinder arrangement. the systems are in internal equilibrium so that, in the absence of external fields, they are homogeneous with respect to their relevant intensive properties. Specifically, since they are assumed to be in internal thermal, mechanical and diffusional equilibrium, they are uniform with respect their temperature, pressure and composition. This requirement poses problems for solids, in which full internal equilibrium often does not exist. In fluids, molecular mobility often (but not always) guarantees internal equilibrium, whereas in solids, non-equilibrium structures, and hence non-uniform stress fields and compositions, can be frozen in place over time scales of practical interest. (This is clearly the case for many of the purpose-built micro or nano constructions of interest in nanoscience and nanotechnology.) “Textbook chemical thermodynamics” thus focuses on fluids, and the systems commonly encountered are fluid masses delineated by boundaries that are 108 INTERFACES & COLLOIDS close to, but not coincident with their actual physical boundaries, as exemplified by the gas contained within the piston-cylinder arrangement of Fig.

Pask"' Inorganic Materials Research Division, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory and Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Coliege of Engineering; University of California, Berkeley, California 94720 (Received October 17, 7973) Publication costs assisted by U. S. Atomic Energy Commission The thermodynamics of a solid-liquid-vapor system both under chemical equilibrium and nonequilibri- um conditions, based on the model of Gibbs, is discussed. Under chemical equilibrium conditions, the degree of wetting or nonwetting of a flat and nondeformable solid by the liquid is defined by Young's equation in terms of the static interfacial tensions. Under chemical nonequilibrium conditions, mass transfer across an interface results in a transient decrease in the corresponding specific interfacial free energy and the interfacial tension by an amount equal to the free energy of the effective chemical reac- tion per area at that interface. When the reaction is between the solid and the liquid, this transient low- ering of the interfacial tension can cause the liquid drop to spread on the solid substrate if the interfacial energy reduction is large enough and also if the diffusion rates of the reacting components in the solid phase are slow enough relative to the flow rate of the liquid to cause the liquid at the periphery of the drop to be in dynamic contact with unreacted solid.

  • Colloidal Spheres Confined by Liquid Droplets: Geometry, Physics, and Physical Chemistry
    1 Colloidal spheres confined by liquid droplets: geometry, physics, and physical chemistry Vinothan N. Manoharan Department of Physics and Division of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University, 17 Oxford St, Cambridge MA 02138, USA Abstract I discuss how colloidal particles organize when they are confined by emulsion droplets. In these systems, the interplay between surface tension and interparticle repulsion drives the formation of complex, non-crystalline 3D arrangements. These can be classified into three groups: colloidosomes, or Pickering emulsions, structures that form when particles are bound to the interface of a spherical droplet; colloidal clusters, small polyhedral configurations of colloids formed by capillary forces generated in an evaporating emulsion droplet; and supraparticles, ball-shaped crystallites formed in the interior of emulsion droplets. I discuss the preparation, properties, and structure of each of these systems, using relevant results from geometry to describe how the particles organize. "Keywords: Colloids, emulsion, interface, self-assembly" PACS: 68.03.Cd, 68.05.-n, 82.70.Dd, 82,70.Kj Solid State Communications 139 (11-12): 557–561. doi:10.1016/j.ssc.2006.04.038. http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S003810980600473X 2 2. Interactions 1. Introduction 2.1. Interaction between a particle and an interface When colloidal particles are suspended in an emulsion—a blend of two immiscible fluids such as oil and water—the competition between interfacial energy and interparticle forces causes the particles to arrange in ways that are not observed in bulk colloidal suspensions. Under certain conditions, the spherical droplet interfaces can adsorb particles or confine them to the interior.

  • Atomistic-Scale Computational Materials Science on Surface and Interface Phenomena for Materials Development
    NIPPON STEEL & SUMITOMO METAL TECHNICAL REPORT No. 114 MARCH 2017 Technical Report UDC 669 . 14 : 539 . 24 : 681 . 3 Atomistic-scale Computational Materials Science on Surface and Interface Phenomena for Materials Development Koji MORIGUCHI* Yoichi MATSUZAKI Abstract Functionalities of materials usually originate from the spatial inhomogeneity in the as- sociated systems. The phenomena on the surface are, therefore, expected to induce essen- tially different physical properties from ones in bulk systems. One of the most important missions of the recent computational materials science is to create universal concepts on the functionalities of practical materials based on the basic physical science. In this article, we review our recent theoretical research activities on some surface and interface phenomena associated in the technologies of “protection against metal dusting”, “molecular design of organic corrosion inhibitors”, “graphite anodes for lithium-ion secondary batteries”, and “SiC single crystal growth”, using the atomistic-scale computational materials science. 1.

  • 1 Wetting of Surfaces and Interfaces: a Conceptual Equilibrium Thermodynamic Approach
    1 1 Wetting of Surfaces and Interfaces: a Conceptual Equilibrium Thermodynamic Approach Jarl B. Rosenholm Abstract Owing to the focus on molecular engineering of intelligent materials, growing in- terest has been focused on the specific interactions occurring at molecular dis- tances from a surface. Advanced experimental techniques have been developed in- cluding instruments able to measure directly interactions at nanometer distances and to identify special structural features with comparable perpendicular and lat- eral resolution. With this new information at hand, the theories of molecular in- teractions have been re-evaluated and developed further to encompass specific in- teractions such as Lewis and Brønsted acidity and basicity. However, the new the- ories are based on critical approximations, making the upscaling to macroscopic condensed systems uncertain. Therefore, the aim of this study was to evaluate some recent models by introducing macroscopic work functions (cohesion, adhe- sion, spreading and immersion) of wetting of solid surfaces within the proper con- ceptual thermodynamic (macroscopic) framework. The properties of binary and ternary systems are discussed with the focus on four non-ideal inorganic (SiO2 and TiO2) model substrates. The results obtained after applying the recent and more traditional models for dispersive and specific (polar) interactions are com- pared with those utilizing simplifying assumptions. The sources of uncertainties are sought, e.g. from the contribution of surface pressure determined from con- tact angle and adsorption isotherms. Finally, the influence of chemical and struc- tural heterogeneities and also external stimuli on wetting is briefly discussed. 1.1 Introduction Owing to the focus on molecular engineering of intelligent materials, growing interest has been focused on the specific interactions occurring at molecular dis- tances from a surface.

  • Integrating Density Functional Theory Modeling with Experimental Data to Understand and Predict Sorption Reactions: Exchange of Salicylate for Phosphate on Goethite
    Article Integrating Density Functional Theory Modeling with Experimental Data to Understand and Predict Sorption Reactions: Exchange of Salicylate for Phosphate on Goethite James D. Kubicki 1,* and Tsutomu Ohno 2 1 Department of Geological Sciences, The University of Texas at El Paso, El Paso, TX 79968, USA 2 School of Food & Agriculture, University of Maine, Orono, ME 04469, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 8 April 2020; Accepted: 22 April 2020; Published: 24 April 2020 Abstract: Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are a quantum mechanical approach that can be used to model chemical reactions on an atomistic scale. DFT provides predictions on structures, thermodynamics, spectroscopic parameters and kinetics that can be compared against experimentally determined data. This paper is a primer on the basics of utilizing DFT for applications in mineral-water interfaces. In our case-study, we use DFT to model the surface complexes of phosphate and salicylate adsorbed onto the (101) and (210) surfaces of α-FeOOH (goethite), as an example of combining DFT and experiment. These three components are important in the phosphorus-organic matter interactions in soils, and by comparing the energies of the two surface complexes, the exchange energy of salicylate for phosphate onto goethite can be estimated. The structures of the surface complexes are predicted and the resulting vibrational frequencies calculated based on these structures are compared to previous observations. Upon verification of reasonable surface complex models, the potential energy of exchanging salicylate for phosphate is calculated and shown to be significantly exothermic. This model result is consistent with observations of plant exudates, such as salicylate freeing adsorbed phosphate in soils under P-limited conditions.
