On November 1, 2024

A paper co-authored by Adilson Alves de Freitas, Karina Shimizu, José Nuno Canongia Lopes and Benilde
Saramago has been selected for the cover of Journal of Physical Chemistry B.

The article, titled Molecular Interactions between Ionic Liquid Lubricants and Silica Surfaces: An MD Simulation Study“, investigates the use of ionic liquid additives as lubricants on silica surfaces. Molecular dynamics simulations revealed that [4-picH]+ cations enhance performance in PEG200 lubricants, showing synergistic interactions that lead to improved lubrication.
