Abstract

We analyse using molecular dynamics simulation the wetting behaviour of a particulate of nanometer size at a liquid/liquid interface. Our study shows that Young's equation provides accurate predictions of the contact angles that the particulate makes with the interface. This is found to be the case even for very small particulates whose size (≈15 Å) is approximately the same as the width of the interface. The line tension is an approximately linear function of the surface tension of the liquid/liquid interface. For the larger particulates studied here the line tensions are positive and of the order 10-11 N, similar to values obtained from experiment on colloidal particles in the water/air interface.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
