Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Jean Guilment"
Jean Guilment's research primarily focuses on the molecular dynamics of confined water, particularly within imogolite nanotubes, illustrating significant interactions between water molecules and the nanotube surfaces.
His 2008 study published in "Phys Chem Chem Phys" demonstrated that the internal surface of imogolite is hydrophilic, while the external surface exhibits hydrophobic properties, leading to distinct behaviors of confined water.
The findings include detailed analyses of various aspects such as density profiles, spatial organization, molecular clustering, hydrogen bond lifetimes, and molecular dynamics, providing valuable insights into the unique structural characteristics of confined water in nanotubes.
