Coarse-graining MARTINI model for molecular-dynamics simulations of the wetting properties of graphitic surfaces with non-ionic, long-chain and T-shaped surfactants

Danilo Sergi, Giulio Scocchi, Alberto Ortona

We report on a molecular dynamics investigation of the wetting properties of graphitic surfaces by various solutions at concentrations 1-8 wt% of commercially available non-ionic s…

Molecular dynamics simulations of the contact angle between water droplets and graphite surfaces

Danilo Sergi, Giulio Scocchi, Alberto Ortona

Wetting is a widespread phenomenon, most prominent in a number of cases, both in nature and technology. Droplets of pure water with initial radius ranging from 20 to 80 [Å] spreadi…

Wetting and contact-line effects for spherical and cylindrical droplets on graphene layers: A comparative molecular-dynamics investigation

Giulio Scocchi, Danilo Sergi, Claudio D'Angelo +1

In Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, interactions between water molecules and graphitic surfaces are often modeled as a simple Lennard-Jones potential between oxygen and carbon…

Random packing of small blocks: pressure effects, orientational correlations and application to polymer-based composites

Danilo Sergi, Claudio D'Angelo, Giulio Scocchi +1

Packing is a complex phenomenon of prominence in many natural and industrial processes (liquid crystals, granular materials, infiltration, melting, flow, sintering, segregation, se…
