Abstract
The interfacial activity of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (pNIPAM) nanoparticles in the absence and presence of an anionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate, SDS) was studied at a crude oil-water interface. Both species are interfacially active and can lower the interfacial tension, but when mixed together, the interfacial composition was found to depend on the aging time and total component concentration. With the total component concentration less than 0.005 wt %, the reduced interfacial tension by pNIPAM was greater than SDS; thus, pNIPAM has a greater affinity to partition at the crude oil-water interface. However, the lower molecular weight (smaller molecule) of SDS compared to pNIPAM meant that it rapidly partitioned at the oil-water interface. When mixed, the interfacial composition was more SDS-like for low total component concentrations (≤ 0.001 wt %), while above, the interfacial composition was more pNIPAM-like, similar to the single component response. Applying a weighted arithmetic mean approach, the surface-active contribution (%) could be approximated for each component, pNIPAM and SDS. Even though SDS rapidly partitioned at the oil-water interface, it was shown to be displaced by the pNIPAM nanoparticles, and for the highest total component concentration, pNIPAM nanoparticles were predominantly contributing to the reduced oil-water interfacial tension. These findings have implications for the design and performance of fluids that are used to enhance crude oil production from reservoirs, particularly highlighting the aging time and component concentration effects to modify interfacial tensions.

Abstract
Hereby, we developed a set of nonbonded parameters within all-atom optimized potentials for liquid simulations (OPLS-AA) force field for the simulation of concentrated electrolyte solutions of anionic surfactants. More specifically, the aim of this paper is to assess the performance of five sets of atomic charges calculated using different population analyses (DDEC6, CHelpG, CHelpG-SMD, RESP, and CM5), as well as the original set of charges used in the literature for sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) simulation. Recently, Farafonov et al. have revised the SDS OPLS-AA force field; however, we were unable to obtain the experimental rodlike micelles using this parameter set on long time scale. In fact, the initial SDS bilayer micelle adopted a rodlike shape transiently and then broke down into spherical micelles. Updating OPLS-AA force field with DDEC6, CHelpG, and CHelpG-SMD charges resulted in stable rod micelles for a long simulation time (1 μs). The atomic charges of Farafonov (taken from Shelley et al.), RESP, and CM5 could not correctly describe SDS in concentrated electrolyte solutions. Analysis of the interaction of SDS with the counterions and solvent highlights the role of a balance of the intermolecular forces that must be met to describe adequately the anionic surfactant electrolyte solutions. Further, the optimization of the SDS Lennard-Jones parameters enabled the Farafonov set to properly reproduce the experimental rod micelle. In addition, we have examined the performance of different parameters of sodium ions: the first developed based on the Kirkwood-Buff integrals (KBI) and the second developed by Joung et al. The excessive ion pairing caused by KBI parameters screens significantly SDS-water interactions, which stabilize the rod micelle. Further, a tight interaction of the Na+-SDS head group resulted in stabilization of the bilayer micelle as observed in the case of Na+ parameters developed by Joung et al.
