Abstract
Predicting the interfacial properties of peptides is important for replacing oil-derived surfactants in cosmetics, oil, and agricultural applications. This work validated experimentally the estimations of surface tension at the critical micelle concentration (STCMC) of six peptides performed through a random forest (RF) model in a previous contribution. In silico interfacial tensions of the peptides were obtained in the system decane-water, and dilational experiments were applied to elucidate the foaming potential. The RF model accurately classified the peptides into high and low potential to reduce the STCMC. The simulations at the decane-water interface correctly identified peptides with high, intermediate, and low interfacial properties, and the dilational rheology allowed the estimation of the possible potential of three peptides to produce foams. This study sets the basis for identifying surface-active peptides, but future work is necessary to improve the estimations and the correlation between dilational properties and foam stabilization.

Abstract
Fundamental insights into the interplay and self-assembly of nanoparticles and surface-active agents at the liquid-liquid interface play a pivotal role in understanding the ubiquitous colloidal systems present in our natural surroundings, including foods and aquatic life, and in the industry for emulsion stabilization, drug delivery, or enhanced oil recovery. Moreover, well-controlled model systems for mixed interfacial adsorption of nanoparticles and surfactants allow unprecedented insights into nonideal or contaminated particle-stabilized emulsions. Here, we investigate such a model system composed of hydrophilic, negatively, and positively charged silica nanoparticles and the oil-soluble cationic lipid octadecyl amine with in situ synchrotron-based X-ray reflectometry, which is analyzed and discussed jointly with dynamic interfacial tensiometry. Our results indicate that negatively charged silica nanoparticles only adsorb if the oil-water interface is covered with the positively charged lipid, indicating synergistic adsorption. Conversely, the positively charged nanoparticles readily adsorb on their own, but compete with octadecyl amine and reversibly desorb with increasing concentrations of the lipid. These results further indicate that with competitive adsorption, an electrostatic exclusion zone exists around the adsorbed particles. This prevents the adsorption of lipid molecules in this area, leading to a decreased surface excess concentration of surfactants and unexpectedly high interfacial tension.

Abstract
Viscosity variation of solvent in local regions near a solid surface, be it a biological surface of a protein or an engineered surface of a nanoconfinement, is a direct consequence of intermolecular interactions between the solid body and the solvent. The current coarse-grained molecular dynamics study takes advantage of this phenomenon to investigate the anomaly in a solvated protein's rotational dynamics confined using a representative solid matrix. The concept of persistence time, the characteristic time of structural reordering in liquids, is used to compute the solvent's local viscosity. With an increase in the degree of confinement, the confining matrix significantly influences the solvent molecule's local viscosity present in the protein hydration layer through intermolecular interactions. This effect contributes to the enhanced drag force on protein motion, causing a reduction in the rotational diffusion coefficient. Simulation results suggest that the direct matrix-protein non-bonded interaction is responsible for the occasional jump and discontinuity in orientational motion when the protein is in very tight confinement.
