Clathrate hydrate forms by a combination of water and gas/liquid organic molecules in favorable conditions of relatively low temperature and high pressure. The compound gained …
Glycerol is a major cryoprotective agent and is widely used to promote protein stabilization. By a combined experimental and theoretical study, we show that global thermodynamic …
Hydration free energies are dictated by a subtle balance of hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions. We present here a spectroscopic approach, which gives direct access to the …
Hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity of aqueous interfaces at the molecular level results from a subtle balance in the water–water and water–surface interactions. This is characterized here …
Water, being the universal solvent, acts as a competing agent in fundamental processes, such as folding, aggregation or biomolecular recognition. A molecular understanding of …
The double layer at the solid/electrolyte interface is a key concept in electrochemistry. Here, we present an experimental study combined with simulations, which provides a molecular …
Water's unique thermophysical properties and how it mediates aqueous interactions between solutes have long been interpreted in terms of its collective molecular structure …
The properties of water at interfaces have long been known to differ from those of bulk water in many distinctive ways. More recently, specific confinement effects different from mere …
Water under nanoconfinement at ambient conditions has exhibited low-dimensional ice formation and liquid–solid phase transitions, but with structural and dynamical signatures …
