ExChargeHYD The origin of excess charge at the water/hydrophobic interfaces

Coordinator: ION-PLAZMA VA LAZER TEXNOLOGIYALARI INSTITUTI - INSTITUTE OF ION-PLASMA AND LASER TECHNOLOGIES OF UZBEKISTAN ACADEMY OF SCIENCES IP&LT (UZ)

The main purpose of this proposal is the theoretical investigation of salt adsorption process at the interface of water/hydrophobic substrates taking into account impurities, dissolved gases using thermodynamically consistent force fields for ions by molecular dynamics methods. Most hydrophobic polymer materials without any functional and reactive surface groups develops a substantial negative charge at the interface of water-hydrophobic substrate. Source of this excess charge is not determined yet while the effect is enormous for electrically driven flows, in the context of electrical energy…

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €15k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 1 year from 2013-12-20 to 2014-12-19.
