Interaction of Water with the Vitreous Silica Surface. An Atomic Level Description

Abstract

The research performed in this contract was aimed at applying the MD computer simulation technique to the study of the interaction of water molecules with vitreous silica surfaces in order to determine the effect of local substrate structure on adsorption of water molecules, silanol formation, and clustering.
