Morishita K, Sachar H, Duncan T, Zhang Z, Marioni N, Herrera A, et al.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces . 2024 Oct; 16(42):57888-57900. PMID: 39397586
The separation of ions of similar charge is a crucial challenge in many applications, from water treatment to precious metal recovery. Membranes with cross-linked zwitterionic amphiphilic copolymer (ZAC-X) selective layers,...

Langmuir . 2024 Apr; 40(18):9563-9578. PMID: 38656161
Membranes incorporating zwitterionic chemistries have recently emerged as promising candidates for facilitating challenging ion-ion separations. Transport of ions in such membranes predominantly occurs in hydrated nanopores lined with zwitterionic monomers....

ACS Macro Lett . 2023 Sep; 12(10):1293-1297. PMID: 37695823
Recent experiments have revealed that random zwitterionic amphiphilic copolymer (r-ZAC) membranes exhibit excellent Cl/F permselectivity circumventing the solubility-diffusivity trade-off. We conducted molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the origin of the...

Sachar H, Haque Pial T, Sivasankar V, Das S
ACS Nano . 2021 Oct; 15(11):17337-17347. PMID: 34605243
Energy generation through nanofluidics is a topic of great nanotechnological relevance. Here, we conduct all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the transport of water and ions in a pressure-driven flow...

Haque Pial T, Sachar H, Desai P, Das S
ACS Nano . 2021 Apr; 15(4):6507-6516. PMID: 33797221
Controlling the direction and strength of nanofluidic electrohydrodyanmic transport in the presence of an externally applied electric field is extremely important in a number of nanotechnological applications. Here, we employ...

Sivasankar V, Etha S, Sachar H, Das S
Phys Rev E . 2020 Aug; 102(1-1):013103. PMID: 32794997
We demonstrate that functionalizing nanoslits with pH-responsive polyelectrolyte brushes can lead to extremely fast electro-osmotic (EOS) water transport, where the maximum centreline velocity and the volume flow rate can be...

Sachar H, Haque Pial T, Chava B, Das S
Soft Matter . 2020 Aug; 16(33):7808-7822. PMID: 32747883
All atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of planar Na+-counterion-neutralized polyacrylic acid (PAA) brushes are performed for varying degrees of ionization (and thereby varying charge density) and varying grafting density. Variation...

Etha S, Sivasankar V, Sachar H, Das S
Electrophoresis . 2020 Feb; 41(9):657-665. PMID: 32092163
Development of anti-biofouling coating has attracted immense attention for reducing the massively detrimental effects of biofouling in systems ranging from ship hulls and surgical instruments to catheters, implants, and stents....
