Proteins – one of the organic phases from Biohybrid Org-Inorganics
• Interactions between atoms within the protein chain• Interactions between the protein and the solvent

• Nonspecific forces between like or unlike atoms
• Decrease with r6
• approximately 1 kJ/mol• If r0 is the sum of van der
Waals radii for the two atoms. Van der Waals forces are attractive forces when r> r0 and repulsive when r< r0.
Van der Waals (Non-bonding) Interactions

Charge-charge (Coulombic) interactions
Coulomb interaction between two ions (1-15 A)
At close range, Coulomb interactions are as strong as covalent bonds (10-18J or 200-300 kT)
Their energy decreases with 1/r and fall off to less than kT at about 56 nm separation between charges
In practice, charge-charge interactions have been shown to be chemically significant at up to 15 Å in proteins

Hydrogen Bonding
• In a covalent bond, an electron is shared between two atoms.
• Hydrogen possesses only one electron and so it can covalently bond with only ONE other atom.
• The proton is unshielded and makes an electropositive end to the bond: ionic character.
• Bond energies are usually stronger than v.d.W., typically 25-100 kT.
• H-bonding can lead to weak ordering in water.

Surface tension & the importance of interfaces
Molecules on surface have fewer neighbors and so exert greater force on adjacent molecules = surface tension (in dynes cm-1 or N m-1 Jm2)
Surface tension γ = surface energy (N m-1 = Jm-2)
Nature tries to minimize the surface area of interfaces (spheres and the bigger the better)
It costs energy to phase separate and make an interface
Small particles have higher surface area per gram; higher energy

Particle CoalescenceSame polymer volume before and after coalescence:
In 1 L of latex (50% solids), with a particle diameter of 200 nm, N is ~ 1017 particles. Then ΔA = -1.3 x 104 m2
With ϒ = 3 x 10-2 J m-2, ΔF = - 390 J.From 3SCMP

Force (N or kgms-2) to break a bond = -dU/dr
Strength of a bond (Nm-2 or Pa) = Force/cross section area

Polymers are weaker than predicted
• Entanglements & non-bonding interactions in linear polymers• Covalent bonds only break with short time scale• Cross-linking with covalent bonds makes materials stronger but more brittle
Linear Macromolecules under tensioncauses polymers to disentangle

Thermodynamics of Mixing and phase separation
• Entropically mixing is usually favorable (+)• Enternal energy ΔU often is crucial component
Important for mixing of organic and inorganic precursors to hybrids and for phase separation that might occur upon environmental changes or changes in chemical structure

Thermodynamics of mixing of mixing A & B
Re-write in terms of an interaction parameter Chi time kT times the volume fractions of A and B Now you can just vary Chi and T
and explore phase diagrams
Helmholtz Free Energy (Constant Volume)
For small molecules, NA = NB = 1 & ΔS is large and positive.

Spinoidal decompositon into two phasesWhen moving from the one-phase to the two-phase region of the phase diagram, ALL concentration fluctuations are stable.

Spinodal decomposition of mixture of liquid crystals
![Page 21: Chemistry and Physics of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Materials](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012904/56815d8e550346895dcba253/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Phases grow in size to reduce their interfacial area in a process called “coarsening”.
![Page 22: Chemistry and Physics of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Materials](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012904/56815d8e550346895dcba253/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Block copolymers tie the two immiscible phases together
Still spinodal decomposition
Coarsening is stopped by connected macromolecules
Covalent bonds [provide greater metastability of turing structure
![Page 23: Chemistry and Physics of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Materials](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012904/56815d8e550346895dcba253/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Nucleation in metastable regions
Small fluctuations in composition are not stable.
Only1 and 2* are stable phases! The 2* composition must be nucleated and then it will grow.

Nucleated structure: islands of one phase in another
Spinodal structure: co-continuous phases

Nucleation of a Second Phase in the Metastable Region
Energy reduction through phase separation with growth of the nucleus with volume (4/3)r3
Energy “cost” of creating a new interface with an area of 4r2
Growth of the second phase occurs only when a stable nucleus with radius r has been formed.
γ is the interfacial energy between the two phases.
Small: usually a few nanometers

Most hybrids involve phase separation
All nucleation. Rare to see spinodal decomposition

Amorphous versus crystalline
• Amorphous – kinetic, no long range order, no time for crystals to grow from solution or liquid.How can you tell if a material is amorphous?
• Crytsalline: thermdynamic structures made with reversiblity to remove defects and correct growth. Long range order.
How can you tell if a material is crystalline?
![Page 29: Chemistry and Physics of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Materials](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022012904/56815d8e550346895dcba253/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Crystalline materials• Long range order: Bragg diffraction of
electromagnetic radiation (or electron beams in TEM) by crystalline lattice into sharp peaks.
• Solid structures with geometric shapes, straight lines and flat surfaces, and vertices.
• Optical affects like bifringence• Direct visuallization of crystal at molecular level
with AFM or STEM.• Melting point (not always though)

Amorphous materials• No long range order: diffuse peaks may be
present, due to average heavy atom distances. • No crystalline geometries, glass like fractures
(conchoidal)• Aggregate spherical particles common• Negative evidence for crystal at molecular level
with AFM or STEM.• No Melting point
