Stochastic approach to the theory of stratification of water and aqueous solutions: A model of twinkling hydrogen bonds

Аннотация

The equations of state for liquids and liquid solutions with intermolecular hydrogen bonds were derived in the dichotomous noise model for these bonds. The analytically obtained PT and TC phase diagrams show that finite-lifetime bonds can be responsible for new experimentally found phase transitions. These are (i) stratification of solutions in a closed TC region (i.e., a region with upper and lower critical points) and in a low-concentration TC region and (ii) low-temperature stratification of monomolecular liquids into heavy and light phases.
