Comprehensive review of the interfacial behavior of water/oil/surfactant systems using dissipative particle dynamics simulation. Adv Colloid Interface Sci 2022; 309:102774. [PMID: 36152373 DOI: 10.1016/j.cis.2022.102774] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2022] [Revised: 09/07/2022] [Accepted: 09/10/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022]
Abstract
A comprehensive understanding of interfacial behavior in water/oil/surfactant systems is critical to evaluating the performance of emulsions in various industries, specifically in the oil and gas industry. To gain fundamental knowledge regarding this interfacial behavior, atomistic methods, e.g., molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, can be employed; however, MD simulation cannot handle phenomena that require more than a million atoms. The coarse-grained mesoscale methods were introduced to resolve this issue. One of the most effective mesoscale coarse-grained approaches for simulating colloidal systems is dissipative particle dynamics (DPD), which bridges the gap between macroscopic time and length scales and molecular-scale simulation. This work reviews the fundamentals of DPD simulation and its progress on colloids and interface systems, especially surfactant/water/oil mixtures. The effects of temperature, salt content, a water/oil ratio, a shear rate, and a type of surfactant on the interfacial behavior in water/oil/surfactant systems using DPD simulation are evaluated. In addition, the obtained results are also investigated through the lens of the chemistry of surfactants and emulsions. The outcome of this comprehensive review demonstrates the importance of DPD simulation in various processes with a focus on the colloidal and interfacial behavior of surfactants at water-oil interfaces.

Abstract
The wide possibilities of designing a chemical structure and creating complexes with transition metals make polymers of heteroaromatic structure interesting objects, from both scientific and practical aspects. In this work, modern biquinoline-containing polymers, namely polyester amide (PEA) and its metal–polymer complex (PEA–Cu(I)), were synthesized and used to form dense flat membranes. A comparative study of their morphology, same physical properties (density, free volume, and contact angles), and thermomechanical characteristics was carried out. The transport properties of the modern membranes were studied during pervaporation, to solve a problem of n-heptane isolation from its binary mixtures with thiophene and methanol. It was shown that only the PEA membrane is selective for the separation of thiophene impurities from the mixture with n-heptane. In pervaporation of methanol/n-heptane mixture, the РЕА–Cu(I) membrane exhibits significantly higher pervaporation separation index, as compared with that of the РЕА membrane.

Abstract
Self-formation of colloidal oil droplets in water or water droplets in oil not only has been regarded as fascinating fundamental science but also has been utilized in an enormous number of applications in everyday life. However, the creation of three-dimensional (3D) architectures by a liquid droplet and an immiscible liquid interface has been less investigated than other applications. Here, we report interfacial energy-driven spontaneous self-formation of a 3D plasmonic optical structure at room temperature without an external force. Based on the densities and interfacial energies of two liquids, we simulated the spontaneous formation of a plasmonic optical structure when a water droplet containing metal ions meets an immiscible liquid polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) interface. At the interface, the metal ions in the droplet are automatically reduced to form an interfacial plasmonic layer as the liquid PDMS cures. The self-formation of both an optical cavity and integrated plasmonic nanostructure significantly enhances the fluorescence by a magnitude of 1000. Our findings will have a huge impact on the development of various photonic and plasmonic materials as well as metamaterials and devices.

Abstract
Multicomponent, multiphase, compressible flows are very important in real life, as well as in scientific research, while their modeling is in an early stage. In this paper, we propose a diffuse interface model for compressible binary mixtures, based on the balance of mass, momentum, energy, and the second law of thermodynamics. We show both analytically and numerically that this model is able to describe the phase equilibrium for a real binary mixture (CO_{2} + ethanol is considered in this paper) very well by adjusting the parameter which measures the attraction force between molecules of the two components in the model. We also show that the calculated surface tension of the CO_{2} + ethanol mixture at different concentrations match measurements in the literature when the mixing capillary coefficient is taken to be the geometric mean of the capillary coefficient of each component. Three different cases of two droplets in a shear flow, with the same or different concentration, are simulated, showing that the higher concentration of CO_{2} the smaller the surface tension and the easier the drop deforms.

Abstract
Several methods to measure surface tension involve some inconveniences when applied to moderate or highly viscous polymer solutions. Therefore, an improved version of the weight drop method (WDM) is proposed here. In addition, a comparative analysis of methods is carried out, including the drop profile (DPM), the selected planes (SPM), the WDM and the one proposed here (WDSM), finding that the WDSM is as easy to apply as the SPM and the WDM, although in practical conditions it is much more accurate than either of them. Moreover, the WDSM allows to reproduce the results that can be obtained using DPM, but, in general, it is much easier to implement and apply than such method. The WDSM was used to determine surface tension in polystyrene or poly(methyl methacrylate) in styrene solutions, where the dependence of such property with polymer average molecular weight and polymer concentration was experimentally evaluated.

Abstract
A Helmholtz free energy density functional is developed to describe the vapor-liquid interface of associating chain molecules. The functional is based on the statistical associating fluid theory with attractive potentials of variable range (SAFT-VR) for the homogenous fluid [A. Gil-Villegas, A. Galindo, P. J. Whitehead, S. J. Mills, G. Jackson, and A. N. Burgess, J. Chem. Phys. 106, 4168 (1997)]. A standard perturbative density functional theory (DFT) is constructed by partitioning the free energy density into a reference term (which incorporates all of the short-range interactions, and is treated locally) and an attractive perturbation (which incorporates the long-range dispersion interactions). In our previous work [F. J. Blas, E. Martin del Rio, E. de Miguel, and G. Jackson, Mol. Phys. 99, 1851 (2001); G. J. Gloor, F. J. Blas, E. Martin del Rio, E. de Miguel, and G. Jackson, Fluid Phase Equil. 194, 521 (2002)] we used a mean-field version of the theory (SAFT-HS) in which the pair correlations were neglected in the attractive term. This provides only a qualitative description of the vapor-liquid interface, due to the inadequate mean-field treatment of the vapor-liquid equilibria. Two different approaches are used to include the correlations in the attractive term: in the first, the free energy of the homogeneous fluid is partitioned such that the effect of correlations are incorporated in the local reference term; in the second, a density averaged correlation function is incorporated into the perturbative term in a similar way to that proposed by Toxvaerd [S. Toxvaerd, J. Chem. Phys. 64, 2863 (1976)]. The latter is found to provide the most accurate description of the vapor-liquid surface tension on comparison with new simulation data for a square-well fluid of variable range. The SAFT-VR DFT is used to examine the effect of molecular chain length and association on the surface tension. Different association schemes (dimerization, straight and branched chain formation, and network structures) are examined separately. The surface tension of the associating fluid is found to be bounded between the nonassociating and fully associated limits (both of which correspond to equivalent nonassociating systems). The temperature dependence of the surface tension is found to depend strongly on the balance between the strength and range of the association, and on the particular association scheme. In the case of a system with a strong but very localized association interaction, the surface tension exhibits the characteristic "s shaped" behavior with temperature observed in fluids such as water and alkanols. The various types of curves observed in real substances can be reproduced by the theory. It is very gratifying that a DFT based on SAFT-VR free energy can provide an accurate quantitative description of the surface tension of both the model and experimental systems.
