Many-Body Coarse-Grained Interactions Using Gaussian Approximation Potentials. (2016, background): “However, this does not capture hydrophobic effects properly [53, 54].”
Water in nonpolar confinement: from nanotubes to proteins and beyond. (2008, neutral): “Recent theoretical developments (15) and related simulation studies (16, 17) span the length-scale-dependent hydration of hard-sphere solutes from molecular to macroscopic sizes (18).”
Strategies to Address Low Drug Solubility in Discovery and Development (2013, background): “Increasing the length of the hydrophobic region of an ionic or nonionic surfactant leads to a decrease in the water solubility of surfactant monomers, in turn leading to a decrease in the CMC (Hall and Pethica, 1967; Attwood and Florence, 1983; Chandler, 2005).”
Hydration of metal surfaces can be dynamically heterogeneous and hydrophobic (2013, background): “Although the adsorbed oxygens at both surfaces still afford hydrogen bond acceptor sites, the asymmetry associated with lacking donor sites results in an interface that is liquid–vapor-like in the sense that large density fluctuations occur through the collective formation and deformation of an inte”
Water mediation in protein folding and molecular recognition. (2006, background): “Water might assist the association of two rigid hydrophobic objects by the so-called dewetting (drying) effect, which is characterized by the collective emptying of space around the nucleating sites and the formation of a large vapor bubble (21, 67, 97).”
Nonadditivity of nanoparticle interactions (2015, background): “More recently, however, simulation (94) and Raman scattering experiments (95) have demonstrated that thismechanism is valid only for small solutes.”
