Amphiphilic hard body mixtures
M Schmidt ; C von Ferber ;
Date 31 Oct 2001
Journal Phys Rev E, 64 (5 Pt 1), 051115
AbstractIn order to study ternary amphiphilic mixtures, we introduce a simplistic model of hard spheres corresponding to water and hard needles corresponding to oil and amphiphilic particles, where the hydrophilic head is modeled as a hard sphere and the hydrophobic tail as an infinitely thin needle attached radially to the sphere. For this system, we construct a geometry-based density functional and perform Monte Carlo computer simulations. The equation of state derived from the theory is found to be in remarkable agreement with our simulation results. We investigate the theoretical demixing phase diagram, and find that the predicted trends strongly support the amphiphilic character of the model.
