Effects of structure of fatty acid collectors on the adsorption of fluorapatite (001) surface: A first-principles calculations

摘要

Effects of carbon chain length, carbon chain isomerism, C=C double bonds number on fatty acid adsorption on FAP (0 0 1) surface have been investigated based on DFT. The results revealed that fatty acid collector can form stable adsorption configuration at Ca1 (surf) site. Chemical adsorption was formed between O (mole) of fatty acid collector and the Ca1 (surf) of fluorapatite (0 0 1) surface; hydrogen bond adsorption was formed between the H (mole) of fatty acid and the O (surf) of-[PO4]- of FAP (0 0 1) surface. Fatty acid collectors and FAP (0 0 1) surface are bonding by means of the hybridization of O (mole) 2p and Ca (surf) 4d orbitals, H (mole) 1s and O (surf) 2p orbital. The analysis of adsorption energy, DOS, electron density, Mulliken charge population and Mulliken bond population revealed that with the carbon chain growing within certain limits, the absolute value of the adsorption energy and the overlapping area between the DOS curve of O (mole) and Ca (surf) was greater, while that of H (mole) 1s and O (surf) 2p basically remained unchanged. As C=C double bonds of fatty acids increased within certain limits, the adsorption energy and the overlapping area between the state density curve of O (mole) and Ca (surf), H (mole) and O (surf) basically remained unchanged. The substituent groups of fatty acid changed, the absolute value of the adsorption energy and the overlapping area between the state density curve had a major change. The influence of fatty acids adsorption on FAP (0 0 1) surface depends mainly on the interaction between O (mole) and Ca (surf). (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
