V-structures of ethylene glycol and monoethanolamine in the temperature range of the liquid phase

Аннотация

Vibration-averaged V-structures for liquid ethylene glycol (EG) and monoethanolamine (MEA) are found in the temperature range of the solvents’ liquid phase by means of molecular dynamics. The obtained V-structures’ characteristics are compared to X-ray diffraction data on the crystalline phases of these compounds. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental data is observed. The V-structures are compared to that of water.
