Electrical double layer properties of spherical oxide nanoparticles
Literature Information
Christian Hunley, Marcelo Marucho
The accurate characterization of the electrical double layer properties of nanoparticles is of fundamental importance for optimizing their physicochemical properties for specific biotechnological and biomedical applications. In this article, we use classical solvation density functional theory and a surface complexation model to investigate the effects of the pH and the nanoparticle size on the structural and electrostatic properties of an electrolyte solution surrounding a spherical silica oxide nanoparticle. The formulation has been particularly useful for identifying dominant interactions governing the ionic driving force at a variety of pH levels and nanoparticle sizes. As a result of the energetic interplay displayed between electrostatic potential, ion–ion correlation and particle crowding effects on the nanoparticle surface titration, rich, non-trivial ion density profiles and mean electrostatic potential behavior have been found.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

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.
