As a hydrophilic polyether molecule, polyethylene glycol has environmentally friendly, degradable, and compatibility characteristics, gradually becoming potential choice for green lubrication. Two novel multifunctional protic ionic liquids (ILs) were synthesized, an ILs-PEG200 lubrication system was constructed with strong hydrogen bonding network structure. The determination of rheological properties boundary states inspired us to consider the interaction between polar additives systems. Surprisingly, extremely stable run-in period obtained by high efficiency adsorption contributed from high-polarity ILs at sliding interface in initial shear stage. Meanwhile, also superior load carrying antishear properties, as well remarkable stability even under very loads, showing certain engineering applications. In addition, mechanism exploring among ILs, PEG system, metal surface, results revealed that tribo-oxidation reactions, physical/chemical adsorption, tribochemical reactions occurred on asperity during shear. Therefore, tribofilm containing phosphates sulfides is generated through occurrence reaction synergistic effect base interface, functional additives. this work can significantly enhance tribological performance poly(ethylene glycol) systems harsh conditions, providing theoretical basis its development field.

Abstract Solid‐supported amines having low molecular weight branched poly(ethylenimine) (PEI) physically impregnated into porous solid supports are promising adsorbents for CO 2 capture. Co‐impregnating short‐chain poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) together with PEI alters the performance of adsorbent, delivering improved amine efficiency (AE, mol sorbed/mol N) and faster uptake rates. To uncover physical basis this gas capture performance, we probe distribution mobility polymers in pores via small angle neutron scattering (SANS), solid‐state NMR, dynamic (MD) simulation studies. SANS MD simulations reveal that PEG displaces wall‐bound PEI, making more accessible sorption. Solid‐state NMR suggest intercalation domains, separating domains reducing amine‐amine interactions, providing potential PEG‐rich amine‐poor interfacial bind weakly physisorption while facile pathways diffusion. Contrary to a prior literature hypothesis, no evidence is obtained facilitating supports. Instead, data chains coordinate forming larger bodies reduced compared alone. We also demonstrate desorption kinetics at varied temperatures, facilitated by favorable distribution.

Abstract. The intermolecular hyperfine relaxation-induced dipolar modulation enhancement experiment (ih-RIDME) is a pulse electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) that can be used to probe the properties of nuclear spin bath in vicinity an unpaired electron. underlying mechanism spectral diffusion during mixing block. A quantitative description kinetics being applied establish ih-RIDME data model allows one extend this method systems with heterogeneous arrangements assuming distribution local densities. heterogeneity stem from solvent or intrinsic nuclei structurally flexible (macro)molecule. Therefore, fitted function further serve as for characterization, quantification and structure-based analysis. Here, we present detailed introduction principles application systems. We discuss resolution, determination parameters influence noise experimental data. demonstrate spin-labelled macromolecule unstructured domains. proton densities was reproduced help conformational ensemble generated using Monte Carlo approach. Finally, several sequences exploiting HYperfine Spectral Diffusion Echo MOdulatioN (HYSDEMON) effect improved signal-to-noise ratio.

Understanding how external electric fields (EFs) impact the properties of aqueous molecules is crucial for various applications in chemistry, biology, and engineering. In this paper, we present a study utilizing molecular dynamics simulation to explore direct-current (DC) alternative-current (AC) EFs affect hydrophobic (n-triacontane) hydrophilic (PEG-10) oligomer chains. Through machine learning approach, extract 2-dimensional free energy (FE) landscape these molecules, revealing that modulate FE favor stretched configurations enhance alignment chain with field. Our observations indicate DC have more prominent on modulation compared AC stronger effect chains than oligomers. We analyze orientation water dipole moments hydrogen bonds, finding align induce directional bond networks, forming 1D structures. This favors configuration studied oligomers simultaneously, as it minimizes disruption research deepens our understanding mechanisms by which could guide broader application control other such proteins or biomolecules.
