Abstract

, GAFF and OPLS-AA) for graphene. Moreover, the greater the surface area of graphene, the more molecules are absorbed. The solute-surface van der Waals interaction energy plays a driving force in the adsorption of solute molecules on the surface. In addition, interactions like hydrogen bonding and π-stacking over the graphene surface involve binding all like molecules. These aggregated solute molecules strongly attract more like molecules until all solute molecules are adsorbed on the graphene surface, as estimated by enhanced sampling. The molecular origin of graphene exfoliation by MM is also described here. The present work helps to design novel kidney stone inhibitors.
