Universal parameters of bulk-solvent masks [PDF]
The bulk solvent is a major component of biomacromolecular crystals that contributes significantly to the observed diffraction intensities. Accurate modelling of the bulk solvent has been recognized as important for many crystallographic calculations. Owing to its simplicity and modelling power, the flat (mask-based) bulk-solvent model is used by most ...

Liquid-Phase Exfoliation of Biochars in Green Solvents and Correlation with Solvent Parameters [PDF]
Liquid-phase exfoliation (LPE) is a process frequently used to overcome the interactions between layers in layered materials to produce small sheets of material, with remarkable properties and high value applications. Materials are prepared via direct or indirect sonication in a solvent that must be able to effectively disperse and stabilize the sheets

Individual tuning of solvent parameters – from organic solvents to ionic liquids
Abstract For more than 20 years, we have investigated electron transfer reactions of various types and under various conditions. According to the Marcus theory, solvent parameters have a significant influence on the observed kinetics. Temperature-dependent measurements, such as those used to obtain activation parameters, are especially strongly ...

Investigation of Parameters that Affect Resin Swelling in Green Solvents [PDF]
AbstractThe influence of various physical and chemical factors on the swelling of polystyrene and PEG based resins in greener organic solvents has been systematically investigated. In general, chemical factors: the nature of the functionality/linker and the degree of loading were found to have a far larger influence on the swelling of the resins than ...

Ionic-interaction of aqueous and alcoholic poly(vinyl alcohol) in the presence of protons [PDF]
The ionic-interactions of acetic acid in H2O-PVOH and H2O-Alcohol-PVOH solvent systems were studied at different temperatures by viscosity method. The viscosities of the poly(vinyl alcohol) were increased with the increase in the concentration ...

Parameter Choice Matters: Validating Probe Parameters for Use in Mixed-Solvent Simulations [PDF]
Probe mapping is a common approach for identifying potential binding sites in structure-based drug design; however, it typically relies on energy minimizations of probes in the gas phase and a static protein structure. The mixed-solvent molecular dynamics (MixMD) approach was recently developed to account for full protein flexibility and solvation ...

Flat bulk-solvent model: obtaining optimal parameters [PDF]
A bulk-solvent correction is regularly used for macromolecular refinement. The flat model of the bulk solvent is considered to be the most reliable. It is shown that the standard procedure does not always result in the optimal values of the bulk-solvent correction parameters.
