Abstract
Surfactant monolayers at liquid interfaces induce a viscoelastic behavior that influences the dynamics of surface fluctuations probed by surface light scattering (SLS). Recent thermophysical property research on viscosity and interfacial tension of liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) systems based on diphenylmethane suggested that such viscoelastic effects may also be present here, although not being expected a priori. To prove the hypothesis that the LOHC intermediate cyclohexylphenylmethane (H6-DPM) can induce a surfactant-like behavior, binary mixtures of diphenylmethane (H0-DPM) or dicyclohexylmethane (H12-DPM) with small amounts of H6-DPM were studied by SLS in combination with conventional viscometry and tensiometry and molecular dynamics simulations between (303 and 473) K. Only in mixtures with H0-DPM which has a slightly larger surface tension than H6-DPM, the presence of the latter compound causes a significant effect on the dynamics of surface fluctuations, especially on their damping. In analogy to the concentration-dependent behavior observed for a monolayer of a highly amphiphilic ionic surfactant on the surface of water at ambient temperature, the orientation of H6-DPM molecules with respect to the surface appears to change from a preferentially perpendicular to a parallel alignment with increasing temperature. This demonstrates that viscoelastic effects including accompanied surface orientation effects can be resolved by SLS even for weakly asymmetric surface-active molecules such as H6-DPM in its diluted mixtures with very similar species.

Abstract
The understanding of interfacial phenomena between H2 and geofluids is of great importance for underground H2 storage, but requires further study. We report the first investigation on the three-phase fluid mixture containing H2, H2O, and n-C10H22. Molecular dynamics simulation and PC-SAFT density gradient theory are employed to estimate the interfacial properties under various conditions (temperature ranges from 298 to 373 K and pressure is up to around 100 MPa). Our results demonstrate that interfacial tensions (IFTs) of the H2-H2O interface in the H2 + H2O + C10H22 three-phase mixture are smaller than IFTs in the H2 + H2O two-phase mixture. This decrement of IFT can be attributed to C10H22 adsorption in the interface. Importantly, H2 accumulates in the H2O-C10H22 interface in the three-phase systems, which leads to weaker increments of IFT with increasing pressure compared to IFTs in the water + C10H22 two-phase mixture. In addition, the IFTs of the H2-C10H22 interface are hardly influenced by H2O due to the limited amount of H2O dissolved in nonaqueous phases. Nevertheless, positive surface excesses of H2O are seen in the H2-C10H22 interfacial region. Furthermore, the values of the spreading coefficient are mostly negative revealing the presence of the three-phase contact for the H2 + H2O + C10H22 mixture under studied conditions.

Abstract
In this study a binary mixture is modelled in a uniform simulation cell at various temperatures using an extended version of the grand canonical kinetic Monte Carlo (GC-kMC) method. The main goal of this study is to consider the thermodynamic properties of binary liquids, gases, and gas-liquid mixtures from a more general point of view than that applied to the particular case of vapour-liquid equilibrium when the pressure and partial chemical potentials in coexisting phases are the same. Particular attention is paid to thermodynamic functions such as chemical potentials, Gibbs free energy and entropy. For the pair potential of unlike molecules a more universal scheme is proposed in comparison with the Lorentz-Berthelot combining rule. The approach is tested on an Ar-Kr mixture in a wide range of temperatures. In all cases, the obtained values of chemical potentials, pressure and internal energy for the entire set of component densities and temperature fully satisfy the Gibbs-Duhem equation with a high degree of accuracy. For the case of vapour-liquid equilibrium, the developed approach made it possible to reproduce the experimental pressure-composition diagrams with the highest accuracy ever achieved in the literature. Despite the fact that the Ar-Kr mixture, according to Raoult's law, is close to an ideal system, it was found that the partial pressures in the liquid phase or in a dense supercritical gas mixture are non-linear functions of the composition, and the partial pressure of the heavier component (Kr) can even be negative.

Abstract
Mass transfer through fluid interfaces is an important phenomenon in industrial applications as well as in naturally occurring processes. In this work, we investigate the mass transfer across vapor-liquid interfaces in binary mixtures using molecular dynamics simulations. We investigate the influence of interfacial properties on mass transfer by studying three binary azeotropic mixtures known to have different interfacial behaviors. Emphasis is placed on the effect of the intermolecular interactions by choosing mixtures with the same pure components but different cross-interactions such that different azeotropic behaviors are obtained. The molar flux is created by utilizing a non-stationary molecular dynamics simulation approach, where particles of one component are inserted into the vapor phase over a short period of time before the system's response to this insertion is monitored. From a direct comparison of the density profiles and the flux profiles in close proximity to the interface, we analyze the particles' tendency to accumulate in the interfacial region throughout the different stages of the simulation. We find that for mixtures with strong attractive cross-interactions, the inserted particles are efficiently transported into the liquid phase. For systems with weak attractive cross-interactions, the inserted particles show a tendency to accumulate in the interfacial region, and the flux through the system is lower. The results from this work indicate that the accumulation of particles at the interface can act as a hindrance to mass transfer, which has practical relevance in technical processes.

Abstract
A generalized data scheme for transferable classical force fields used in molecular simulations, i.e. molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation, is presented. The data scheme is implemented in an SQL-based data format. The data scheme and data format is machine readable, re-usable, and interoperable. A transferable force field is a chemical construction plan specifying intermolecular and intramolecular interactions between different types of atoms or different chemical groups and can be used for building a model for a given component. The data scheme proposed in this work (named TUK-FFDat) formalizes digitally these chemical construction plans, i.e. transferable force fields. It can be applied to all-atom as well as united-atom transferable force fields. The general applicability of the data scheme is demonstrated for different types of force fields (TraPPE, OPLS-AA, and Potoff). Furthermore, conversion tools for translating the data scheme between .xls spread sheet format and the SQL-based data format are provided. The data format can readily be integrated in existing workflows, simulation engines, and force field databases as well as for linking such.

Abstract
The surface affinity of tetramethylammonium iodide (TMAI) in aqueous solutions is investigated by surface tension measurements and molecular dynamics computer simulations. Experiments, performed in the entire composition range of solubility using the pendant drop method with two different setups, clearly reveal that TMAI is a weakly capillary active salt. Computer simulations performed with the AMBER force field reproduce the experimental data very well, while two other major force fields (i.e., CHARMM and OPLS) can still reproduce the experimental trend qualitatively; however, even qualitative reproduction of the experimental trend requires scaling down the ion charges according to the Leontyev-Stuchebrukhov correction. On the other hand, the GROMOS force field fails in reproducing the experimentally confirmed capillary activity of TMAI. Molecular dynamics simulation results show that, among the two ions, iodide has a clearly larger surface affinity than tetramethylammonium (TMA+). Further, the adsorption of the I- anions is strictly limited to the first molecular layer beneath the liquid-vapor interface, which is followed by several layers of their depletion. On the other hand, the net negative charge of the surface layer, caused by the excess amount of I- with respect to TMA+, is compensated by a diffuse layer of adsorbed TMA+ cations, extending to or beyond the fourth molecular layer beneath the liquid surface.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are highly attractive for studying the influence of interfacial effects, such as the enrichment of components, on the mass transfer through the interface. In a recent work, we have presented a steady-state MD simulation method for investigating this phenomenon and tested it using model mixtures with and without interfacial enrichment. The present study extends this work by introducing a non-stationary MD simulation method. A rectangular simulation box that contains a mixture of two components 1 + 2 with a vapor phase in the middle and two liquid phases on both sides is used. Starting from a vapor-liquid equilibrium state, a non-stationary molar flux of component 2 is induced by inserting particles of component 2 into the center of the vapor phase in a pulse-like manner. During the isothermal relaxation process, particles of component 2 pass through the vapor phase, cross the vapor-liquid interface, and enter the liquid phase. The system thereby relaxes into a new vapor-liquid equilibrium state. During the relaxation process, spatially resolved responses for the component densities, fluxes, and pressure are sampled. To reduce the noise and provide measures for the uncertainty of the observables, a set of replicas of simulations is carried out. The new simulation method was applied to study mass transfer in two binary Lennard-Jones mixtures: one that exhibits a strong enrichment of the low-boiling component 2 at the vapor-liquid interface and one that shows no enrichment. Even though both mixtures have similar transport coefficients in the bulk phases, the results for mass transfer differ significantly, indicating that the interfacial enrichment influences the mass transfer.

Abstract
Surface tension (σ) isotherms of liquid mixtures can be divided into Langmuir-type (L-type, including LI- and LII-type) and sigmoid-type (S-type, including SI- and SII-type). Many models have been developed to describe the σ-isotherms. However, the existing models can well describe the L-type isotherms, but not the S-type ones. In the current work, a thermodynamic model, called the general adsorption model, was developed based on the assumption of surface aggregation occurring in the surface layers, to relate the surface composition with the bulk one. By coupling the general adsorption model with the modified Eberhart model, a two-parameter equation was developed to relate the σ with the bulk composition. Its rationality was examined using the σ data of 10 binary mixtures. The results indicate that the new model can accurately describe the S- and L-type isotherms of binary liquid mixtures, showing a good universality. One advantage of the model is that its two parameters, i.e., the adsorption equilibrium constant (K) and the average aggregation number (n), can be estimated by linear fitting experimental σ data, thereby obtaining unique values. This model suggests that the S- and LII-type isotherms arise from the surface aggregation (n ≠ 1). In addition, the standard molar Gibbs free energy of surface adsorption (ΔG̃ad0) and the apparent surface layer thickness (τ) were analyzed for 10 binary mixtures. The ΔG̃ad0 data suggest that the order of adsorption tendency is LI-type ≫ SI-type ≈ SII-type > LII-type, and the strong adsorption usually corresponds to large τ. This work provides a feasible model for describing the S-type isotherms and a better understanding of the surface properties of liquid mixtures.

Abstract
Interfacial properties of binary azeotropic mixtures of Lennard-Jones truncated and shifted fluids were studied by molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and density gradient theory (DGT) in combination with an equation of state. Three binary mixtures were investigated, which differ in the energetic cross interaction parameter that yields different types of azeotropic behavior. This study covers a wide temperature and composition range. Mixture A exhibits a heteroazeotrope at low temperatures, which changes to a low-boiling azeotrope at high temperatures, mixture B exhibits a low-boiling azeotrope, and mixture C exhibits a high-boiling azeotrope. The phase behavior and fluid interfacial properties as well as their relation were studied. Vapor-liquid, liquid-liquid, and vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria and interfaces were considered. Density profiles, the surface tension, the interfacial thickness, as well as the relative adsorption and enrichment of the components at the interface were studied. The results obtained from the two independent methods (MD and DGT) are overall in good agreement. The results provide insights into the relation of the phase behavior, particularly the azeotropic behavior, of simple fluid mixtures and the corresponding interfacial properties. Strong enrichment was found for the mixture with a heteroazeotrope in the vicinity of the three-phase equilibrium, which is related to a wetting transition.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that cosolute mixtures may exert significant non-additive effects upon protein stability. The corresponding liquid–vapor interfaces may provide useful insight into these non-additive effects. Accordingly, in this work, we relate the interfacial properties of dilute multicomponent solutions to the interactions between solutes. We first derive a simple model for the surface excess of solutes in terms of thermodynamic observables. We then develop a lattice-based statistical mechanical perturbation theory to derive these observables from microscopic interactions. Rather than adopting a random mixing approximation, this dilute solution theory (DST) exactly treats solute–solute interactions to lowest order in perturbation theory. Although it cannot treat concentrated solutions, Monte Carlo (MC) simulations demonstrate that DST describes the interactions in dilute solutions with much greater accuracy than regular solution theory. Importantly, DST emphasizes a fundamental distinction between the “intrinsic” and “effective” preferences of solutes for interfaces. DST predicts that three classes of solutes can be distinguished by their intrinsic preference for interfaces. While the surface preference of strong depletants is relatively insensitive to interactions, the surface preference of strong surfactants can be modulated by interactions at the interface. Moreover, DST predicts that the surface preference of weak depletants and weak surfactants can be qualitatively inverted by interactions in the bulk. We also demonstrate that DST can be extended to treat surface polarization effects and to model experimental data. MC simulations validate the accuracy of DST predictions for lattice systems that correspond to molar concentrations.

Abstract
In this study, an innovative wire gauze structured packing, namely PACK-1300XY with a specific surface area of 1300 m2/m3 has been characterized by performing computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach. Indeed, different features of this packing (height equivalent to a theoretical plate, wet/dry pressure drop, and mass transfer efficiency) were analyzed by analyzing the flow regime using the three-dimensional CFD approach with the Eulerian-Eulerian multiphase scenario. The results showed the mean relative deviation of 16% (for wet pressure drop), 14% (for dry pressure drop), and 17% (for mass transfer efficiency) between the CFD predictions and experimental measurements. These excellent levels of consistency between the numerical findings and experimental observations approve the usefulness of the CFD-based approach for reliable simulation of separation processes.

Abstract
The interfacial property of H2O+CO2+oil three-phase systems is crucial for CO2 flooding and sequestration processes but was not well understood. Density gradient theory coupled with PC-SAFT equation of state was applied to investigate the interfacial tension (IFT) of H2O+CO2+oil (hexane, cyclohexane, and benzene) systems under three-phase conditions (temperature in the range of 323–423 K and pressure in the range of 1–10 MPa). The IFTs of the aqueous phase+vapor phase in H2O+CO2+oil three-phase systems were smaller than the IFTs in H2O+CO2 two-phase systems, which could be explained by enrichment of oil in the interfacial region. The difference between IFTs of aqueous phase+vapor phase in the three-phase system and IFTs in H2O+CO2 two-phase system was largest in the benzene case and smallest in the cyclohexane case due to different degrees of oil enrichment in the interface. Meanwhile, CO2 enrichment was observed in the interfacial region of the aqueous phase+oil-rich phase, which led to the reduction of IFT with increasing pressure while different pressure effects were observed in the H2O+oil two-phase systems. The effect of CO2 on the IFTs of aqueous phase+benzene-rich phase interface was small in contrast to that on the IFTs of aqueous phase+alkane (hexane or cyclohexane)-rich phase interface. H2O had little effect on the interfacial properties of the oil-rich phase+vapor phase due to the low H2O solubilities in the oil and vapor phase. Further, the spreading coefficients of H2O+CO2 in the presence of different oil followed this sequence: benzene > hexane > cyclohexane.

Abstract
Various nanoparticles have been applied as chemical demulsifiers to separate the crude-oil-in-water emulsion in the petroleum industry, including graphene oxide (GO). In this study, the Janus amphiphilic graphene oxide (JGO) was prepared by asymmetrical chemical modification on one side of the GO surface with n-octylamine. The JGO structure was verified by Fourier-transform infrared spectra (FTIR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and contact angle measurements. Compared with GO, JGO showed a superior ability to break the heavy oil-in-water emulsion with a demulsification efficiency reaching up to 98.25% at the optimal concentration (40 mg/L). The effects of pH and temperature on the JGO’s demulsification efficiency were also investigated. Based on the results of interfacial dilatational rheology measurement and molecular dynamic simulation, it was speculated that the intensive interaction between JGO and asphaltenes should be responsible for the excellent demulsification performance of JGO. This work not only provided a potential high-performance demulsifier for the separation of crude-oil-in-water emulsion, but also proposed novel insights to the mechanism of GO-based demulsifiers.

Abstract
When painting complex surfaces, such as large-curvature surfaces, poor coating quality is often obtained, which may be caused by lack of an appropriate atomization model, insufficient understanding of atomization mechanisms and laws, and improper painting parameters. This paper presents a numerical model of paint atomization of air spraying using the volume-of-fluid method and large eddy simulation. The interface capture and the turbulent flow were mainly considered in the model: the former was tracked by the volume-of-fluid method and the latter was predicted by the large eddy simulation. After the computational domain being meshed by the staggered-grid method, the governing equations were discretized by the finite volume method and were solved by the SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equations) Consistent algorithm. The results of numerical simulations show that the characteristics of atomization flow field, such as velocity variation, pressure distribution, and paint volume fraction are in agreement with the regularities of atomization. Moreover, the primary and secondary atomization phenomena can be clearly observed: as soon as the paint issues from the nozzle, the paint flow begins to distort and the paint fragments continuously eject from the main paint flow and then these paint fragments distort and disintegrate into smaller elements. A comparison with the experimental data from the literature proves that the model of the whole atomization process of air spray is effective. The model is suitable for simulating the whole atomization process and easy to obtain initial conditions, which can be applied to set the appropriate painting parameters and study paint atomization mechanisms and laws in depth.

Abstract
Molecular dynamics simulations were carried out to investigate cylindrical droplets consisting of binary mixtures of Lennard-Jones (LJ) fluids in contact with a solid substrate. The droplets are composed of mixtures of the monomeric LJ fluid plus linear-tangent chains of 2, 10, 20, and 30 segments per chain that interact through a harmonic potential and the spherically truncated and shifted potential Lennard-Jones. The solid surface was modeled as a semi-infinite platinum substrate with an FCC structure that interacts with the fluid by means of a LJ 9-3 potential. We place emphasis on the effect of mixing a monomeric LJ fluid with heavy components on the contact angle and on the droplet structure, especially in the liquid-solid region. The density profiles of the droplets reveal a strong discrete layering of the fluid in the vicinity of the solid-liquid interface. The layering is more pronounced at low temperatures and for mixtures of short chains (symmetric mixtures). The ordering of the fluid was much less intense for fluids of long chains (asymmetric mixtures), and some cases even show gas enrichment at the solid-liquid interface. Enrichment at the vapor-liquid interfaces and density inversion can also be observed. However, these effects are not as marked as in planar interfaces. The contact angle between the droplet and the substrate is calculated by fitting an ellipse to the vapor-liquid interface defined by the Gibbs dividing surface. In general, an increment in the concentration of the heavy component and a reduction of the temperature resulted in an increase of the contact angle, which in turn disfavored the wetting of the droplet.

Abstract
Vapor-liquid interfacial properties of n-heptane/nitrogen at various temperatures and pressures in the ranges of 270-648 K and 10-60 bar were investigated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Additionally, density gradient theory (DGT) was used to predict the binary system interface for qualitative comparison purposes. Results show that surface tension decreases with the increases in both temperature and pressure, but the rate of decrease against the latter is smaller. The interface thickness, which is of the order of several nanometers, was also shown to have a much stronger dependence on temperature and almost invariant with respect to pressure. MD also reveals the phenomenon of nitrogen enrichment in the outer interfacial region at low subcritical temperatures. A sensitivity analysis of influence parameters on DGT results revealed that surface tension values are a stronger function of n-heptane influence parameter and almost invariant with respect to nitrogen influence parameter. The velocity distribution function (VDF) shows that the molecules in and away from the interface follow the Maxwellian distribution of kinetic theory at subcritical conditions. The VDF of the velocity component normal to the interface of the evaporated n-heptane molecules adjacent to the interface exhibits a deviation from the Maxwellian distribution. The VDF of all three components of velocity of n-heptane molecules at supercritical conditions exhibits a departure from the Maxwellian distribution as well.

Abstract
Binary mixtures of fully flexible linear tangent chains composed of bonded Lennard-Jones interaction sites (monomers) were studied using the molecular dynamics simulation in the NVT ensemble. Their interfacial properties were investigated in planar interfaces by direct simulation of an explicit liquid film in equilibrium with its vapor. A method for the calculation of long-range interactions in inhomogeneous fluids was implemented to take into account the potential truncation effects. Surface tension and the pressure tensor were calculated via the classical Irving-Kirkwood method; vapor pressure, orthobaric densities, density profiles, and Gibbs relative adsorption of the volatile component with respect to the heavy component were also obtained. The properties were studied as a function of the temperature, molar concentration of the heavy component, and the asymmetry of the mixture. According to the results of this work, the temperature loses influence on the surface tension, vapor pressure, and Gibbs relative adsorption curves as the molecular length of the heavy component increases. This suggests that the universal behavior observed in pure fluids of Lennard-Jones chains also holds for binary mixtures. The contribution of the long-range interactions turned out to account for about 60%, 20%, and 10% of the surface tension, vapor pressure, and orthobaric density final values, respectively. This contribution was even larger at high temperatures and for large molecules. Strong enrichment of the volatile component at the interface was observed in the asymmetric mixtures. One of these mixtures even showed a barotropic effect at elevated pressures and a class III phase behavior.

Abstract
In this work, we showcase SGTPy, a Python open-source code developed to calculate interfacial properties (interfacial concentration profiles and interfacial or surface tension) for pure fluids and fluid mixtures. SGTPy employs the Square Gradient Theory (SGT) coupled to the Statistical Associating Fluid Theory of Variable Range employing a Mie potential (SAFT-VR-Mie). SGTPy uses standard Python numerical packages (i.e., NumPy, SciPy) and can be used under Jupyter notebooks. Its features are the calculation of phase stability, phase equilibria, interfacial properties, and the optimization of the SGT and SAFT parameters for vapor-liquid, liquid-liquid and vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria for pure fluids and multicomponent mixtures. Phase equilibrium calculations include two-phase and multiphase flash, bubble and dew points, and the tangent plane distance. For the computation of interfacial properties, SGTPy incorporates several options to solve the interfacial concentration, such as the path technique, an auxiliary time function, and orthogonal collocation. Additionally, the SGTPy code allows the inclusion of subroutines from other languages (e.g., Fortran, and C++) through Cython and f2py Python tools, which opens the possibility for future extensions or recycling tested and optimized subroutines from other codes. Supporting Information includes a review of the theoretical expressions required to couple SAFT-VR-Mie equation of state with the SGT. The use and capabilities of SGTPy are illustrated through step by step examples written on Jupyter notebooks for the cases of pure fluids and binary and ternary mixtures in bi- and three- phasic equilibria. The SGTPy code can be downloaded from https://github.com/gustavochm/SGTPy.

Abstract
In this work, the liquid-liquid interfacial properties of methanol plus n-alkane (n-hexane, n-heptane, n-octane) mixtures are investigated at atmospheric pressure by two complementary molecular modelling techniques; namely, molecular dynamic simulations (MD) and density gradient theory (DGT) coupled with the PC-SAFT (perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory) equation of state. Furthermore, two molecular models of methanol are used, which are based on a non-polarisable three site approach. On the one hand, is the original (flexible) TraPPE-UA model force field. On the other hand, is the rigid approximation denoted as OPLS/2016. In both cases, n-alkanes are modelled using the TraPPE-UA model. Simulations are performed using the direct coexistence technique in the ensemble. Special attention is paid to the comparison between the estimations obtained from different methanol models, the available experimental data and theoretical calculations. In all cases, the rigid model is capable of predicting the experimental phase equilibrium and interfacial properties accurately. Unsurprisingly, the methanol-rich density and interfacial tension are overestimated using the TraPPE model combined with Lorentz-Berthelot mixing rules for predicting the mixture behaviour. Accurate comparison between MD and DGT plus PC-SAFT requires consideration of the cross-interactions between individual influence parameters and fitting the βij values. This latter aspect is particularly important because it allows the exploitation of the link between the EOS model and the direct molecular simulation of the corresponding fluid. At the same time, it was demonstrated that the key property defining the interfacial tension value is the absolute concentration of methanol in the methanol-rich phase. This behaviour indicates that there are more hydrogens bonded with each other, and they interact favourably with an increasing number of carbon atoms in the alkane.
