Relation between molecular assembly and nucleation kinetics during 4-bromopyrazole nucleation
Nucleation is a critical stage during the crystallization process, determining the attributes of the crystalline products. Due to the complicated and microscopic characteristics of the molecular assembly process, the nucleation mechanism has not yet been fully comprehended. In this study, the molecular self-assembly of 4-bromopyrazole (BMPZ) in various solvents and its relation with nucleation kinetics were investigated by the experiment and molecule simulation. Firstly, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and mass spectroscopy were employed to explore and determine the existed forms of BMPZ molecules in solution. It was unveiled that the BMPZ molecules assembly behavior showed an individual feature. Afterward, the nucleation kinetics was determined by statistical probability distribution method, and the parameters associated with the nucleation process were derived from classical nucleation theory, further associating with the nucleation kinetics. Solution chemistry, molecule simulation, and nucleation kinetics exposed that BMPZ assembly forms could act as the growth unit of the nucleation, and nucleation kinetics was chiefly governed by the interface-transfer process.
期刊介绍:
The word ‘particuology’ was coined to parallel the discipline for the science and technology of particles.
Particuology is an interdisciplinary journal that publishes frontier research articles and critical reviews on the discovery, formulation and engineering of particulate materials, processes and systems. It especially welcomes contributions utilising advanced theoretical, modelling and measurement methods to enable the discovery and creation of new particulate materials, and the manufacturing of functional particulate-based products, such as sensors.
Papers are handled by Thematic Editors who oversee contributions from specific subject fields. These fields are classified into: Particle Synthesis and Modification; Particle Characterization and Measurement; Granular Systems and Bulk Solids Technology; Fluidization and Particle-Fluid Systems; Aerosols; and Applications of Particle Technology.
Key topics concerning the creation and processing of particulates include:
-Modelling and simulation of particle formation, collective behaviour of particles and systems for particle production over a broad spectrum of length scales
-Mining of experimental data for particle synthesis and surface properties to facilitate the creation of new materials and processes
-Particle design and preparation including controlled response and sensing functionalities in formation, delivery systems and biological systems, etc.
-Experimental and computational methods for visualization and analysis of particulate system.
These topics are broadly relevant to the production of materials, pharmaceuticals and food, and to the conversion of energy resources to fuels and protection of the environment.
