About this document
Frenkel 03 Fluid-Fluid Coexistence by Spencer Xu is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This study investigates the phase behavior of colloidal systems with short-ranged, strongly directional attractions, specifically focusing on square-well fluids with patchy interactions. The authors find that the size and number of attractive patches significantly influence fluid-fluid coexistence, with strong directionality leading to deviations from traditional phase behavior models. The implications of these findings are discussed in relation to the crystallization of globular proteins.
