Theoretical Study of the Adsorption of 2-Propanol onto Silica Surfaces on the Basis of and Density Functional Calculations

The adsorptive interactions of 2-propanol (2-PrOH) molecules with silica surfaces were investigated using ab initio and density functional calculations. Two cluster models of silica were chosen to represent the terminal ≡SiOH groups and the siloxane bridges ≡Si–(O) 2 –Si≡ on the silica surface. The...
