Problems solved by technology

[0003] Although the anchoring phenomenon of liquid crystal molecules at the water-liquid crystal interface has attracted numerous experimental and theoretical studies in the past decade, the microscopic mechanism at the molecular scale is still unclear. For example, the anchoring phenomenon of surfactants at the water-liquid crystal interface Self-assembled structure and its coupling mechanism with liquid crystal alignment order, etc.
However, since this interface is often deeply buried between two bulk solutions, it is difficult to reveal the microstructure of the interface and the kinetic mechanism of anchoring transition through experimental characterization, and the theoretical research is too abstract. Therefore, we provide a coarse-grained molecular Kinetic study of water-surfactant-liquid crystal three-phase mixed system model construction method to study the anchoring transition behavior of rod-like liquid crystal molecules at the water-liquid crystal interface

Abstract

The present invention discloses a model construction method for a coarse-grained dynamics study on a water-surfactant-liquid crystal three-phase mixed system. The method comprises the following steps: a) constructing a coarse-grained model of a water molecule; b) constructing a coarse-grained model of a liquid crystal molecule; c) constructing a coarse-grained model of a surfactant molecule; and d) setting interaction parameters among the molecules. The water molecule is one coarse-grained spherical particle, the liquid crystal molecule is one coarse-grained spheroidal particle, and the surfactant molecule is the coarse-grained model of a ball chain with 4 heads and 4 ends.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of computer molecular simulation, and in particular relates to a method for constructing a model of a coarse-grained molecular dynamics study on a water-surfactant-liquid crystal three-phase mixed system. Background technique [0002] In the last ten years, new water-liquid crystal interfaces have become a new research hotspot, attracting numerous experimental, theoretical and simulation studies for their potential application value and unique interface properties. This new type of interface system is essentially different from the common solid-liquid crystal interface. Taking the influence of interface adsorption on the anchor orientation as an example, there are about four points of difference between the two: 1. The thermodynamics of the adsorbed surfactant at the interface Different states: In the equilibrium state, the concentration of the surfactant in the aqueous solution determines its chemical poten...
