Physical Properties and Hydrogen-Bonding Network of Water-Ethanol Mixtures from Molecular Dynamics Simulations
While many numerical and experimental works were focused on water-ethanol mixtures at low ethanol concentration, this work reports predictions of a few physical properties (thermodynamical, interfacial, dynamical, and dielectrical properties) of water-ethanol mixture at high alcohol concentrations by means of molecular dynamics simulations. By using a standard force field a good agreement was found between experiment and molecular simulation. This was allowed us to explore the dynamics, structure, and interplay between both hydrogen-bonding networks of water and ethanol.
