Mechanisms and energetics of calcium aluminosilicate glass dissolution through ab initio molecular dynamics-metadynamics simulations
Abstract The dissolution of silicate glasses has implications in diverse fields ranging from the immobilization of radioactive waste to the development of sustainable alternatives to Portland cement. Here, we used ab initio molecular dynamics simulations biased with well-tempered metadynamics to stu...
