Electrostatic disturbances

As described above, the kink in the molecular shape and the requirement to fill the space as effectively as possible are not compatible with a three-dimensional fluid order. In other words, when translating a bent-core molecule in the melt of the neighbouring bent-core molecules, it experiences a periodic potential with its periodicity determined by the length I of the molecules. To allow for fluidity at the macroscopic level, one needs to frustrate the bent-core structure so that they do not lock into smectic layers easily. Such a frustration can be introduced by some steric or electrostatic disturbance of the bare bent-core (or peeled banana ) shape, which has been seen in some modulated smectic phases.As discussed by Bailey and Jdkli,a steric or electrostatic inclusion in the core of the molecules leads to layer modulation, an SmCc structure and broken smectic layers that effectively correspond to a columnar phase, as the inclusions increase. Following this picture, here we postulate that bent-core nematics are probably more frustrated than the electrically unswitchable B7 (columnar) phases, in which the broken smectic ribbons are separated by melted fluid nematic regions. Such over-frustrated B7 materials are characterized... [Pg.66]

In the crudest approximation, the effect of the efectrical double layer on electron transfer is taken into account by introduction of the electrostatic energy -e /i of the electron in the acceptor into the free energy of the transition AF [Frumkin correction see Eq. (34.25)], so that corrected Tafel plots are obtained in the coordinates In i vs. e(E - /i). Here /i is the average electric potential at the site of location of the acceptor ion. It depends on the concentration of supporting electrolyte and is small at large concentrations. Such approach implies in fact that the reacting ion represents a probe ion (i.e., it does not disturb the electric held distribution). [Pg.653]

In summary, a practical realization of FEDs for the pure electrostatic detection of charged macromolecules by their intrinsic molecular charge, especially in high ionic-strength solutions such as physiological conditions, seems to be problematic. All the above discussed disturbing factors, together with a possible undesired adsorption or... [Pg.223]

Freed of other restrictions, a mobile ion may be expected to diffuse down any concentration gradient that exists between porous solid and liquid. In the particular case of ion exchange, there is an additional requirement that the resin and liquid phases should remain electrically neutral. Any tendency for molecules to move in such a way as to disturb this neutrality will generate a large electrostatic potential opposing further movement, known as the Donnan potential. [Pg.1056]

In fact, this attraction between negative charges (that violates the principles of electrostatics) is mediated by the crystal structure of the superconductor. In every metal lattice there is a reciprocal stripping of valence electrons between metal sites which results in these metal sites, fixed at lattice positions, assuming a positive charge. As shown in Figure 7, when a moving electron crosses these positive metal sites the metal ions are attracted towards the electron trajectory and disturbed from its equilibrium position. [Pg.503]

These amines used as inhibitors show negative side effects (disturbances) when used for larger plants. They can be regarded as pollutants by themselves, and can disturb special devices in the plants, especially, when used on a larger scale, filters like electrostatic precipitators. Therefore, we have improved the inhibition method by the use of much safer inorganic compounds as inhibitors, such as. [Pg.183]

Interaction equilibria, e.g., between drugs, excipients, vehicle systems, and biological structures, reflect the sum of interactions, which are nonspecific (hydrophobic) and specific (electrostatic dipole-dipole and dipole-induced dipole and hydrogen bonding). The soft method of ACE does not disturb the sensitive equilibria via any chemical modification. [Pg.11]

The CC bond distances in cyclopentadienyl anion, C5H5, are all equal, because the anion is aromatic (see Chapter 12, Problem 10). Electrophiles that interact electrostatically with the anion, such as Na+, interact equally with all five carbons, and do not disturb the anion s aromatic character. On the other hand, electrophiles that make covalent bonds, such as H+, might interact more strongly with one particular carbon and destroy the aromaticity of the ring. [Pg.101]
