Computer simulation of water near model organic surfaces : interfacial behavior and hydration forces
Hydration forces between organic solid surfaces were investigated by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations. Our interests are forcued on the hydration forces at separation enough large for the water layering to decay. My work is devided into two parts. First, in order to investigate what kind of …

Effects of long-chain surfactants, short-chain alcohols and hydrolyzable cations on the Hydrophobic and Hydration Forces
… media can be predicted by the sum of two surface forces, i.e., the electrical double-layer and van der Waals forces. This theory, which was developed 50 years ago, served as a backbone for colloid chemistry. However, various experiments conducted in recent years showed that it is applicable only …

Measurement of forces between and within bilayers of neutral phospholipids
… The work was divided into that which forces the bilayers together ( F ) and that which compresses the molecules together within the bilayers ( F )# A large repulsive force exists between bilayers composed of each of the lipids studied and this force increases exponentially as bilayer …

Nanoscale insight into tribomechanical and hydrothermal process at calcite surface
… (RSF) model To address these aims, surface force measurements-including friction force, hydration force, and Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO) forces-were performed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) in various conditions. Load-dependent friction measurements in Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, and Ni²⁺ …

Investigation of Non-DLVO Forces using an Evanescent Wave Atomic Force Microscope
… describes new methods for measuring surface forces using evanescent waves, and applications to non-DLVO forces. An evanescent wave, generated at a solid-liquid interface, is scattered by AFM tips or particles attached to AFM cantilevers. The scattering of this wave is used to determine …
