Evaluation of Interfacial Tension Using MD

Full-Atomistic Molecular Dynamics (FAMD) was used to construct a water–octane interface model. Interfacial tension was evaluated from stresses in each direction, showing good agreement with experimental results.
Use Cases Highlights
  • Evaluation of interfacial tension by MD
  • Easy structure construction using J-OCTA’s COGNAC modeler
  • Good agreement with experimental results

Easy structure construction using J-OCTA’s COGNAC modeler

Construction of a water–octane interface model by merging separate systems in J-OCTA is shown.

Time variation of interfacial tension

Relaxation calculations were performed to evaluate the time variation of interfacial tension. Although fluctuations were present, the time-averaged value was 53.3 [dyn/cm], showing good agreement with the experimental value of 51.7 [dyn/cm].
