Among various mechanisms for ER phenomena, the electrostatic polarization and conduction models were known as the most promising theoretical models. However, many inherited defects have limited their uses for the development of effective ER fluids. To resolve these problems, extended Maxwell-Wagner polarization model with Onsager theory was developed. It was observed that the extended model resolved the problems, suggesting that the extended model can be used for the development of effect ER fluids.

The extended Maxwell-Wagner polarization model is employed to describe the ER behavior of the conducting particle ER suspensions, and solutions to the equation of motion are obtained by dynamic simulation. The simulation results show the nonlinear ER behavior (Δτ∝Eⁿ, n≈1.5) of the conducting particle ER suspensions. The response point, where shear stress reaches steady-state, is the point where stable break-up and rebuild of the chain-like structure of particles reaches. Also, it shows the minimum of shear stress, which corresponds the start-up of random particle configuration. The shear stress reaches plateau as particle volume fraction increases.

The solvent effects on the relative free energies of solvation and the difference in partition coefficients (log P) for $Rb^+$ to $K^+$ mutation in several solvents have been investigated using Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) of statistical perturbation theory(SPT). In comparing the relative free energies for interconversion of one ion pair, $Rb^+$ to $K^+$, in $H_2O$(TIP4P) in this study with the relative free energies of the computer simulations and the experimental, we found that the figure in this study with the relative free energies of the computert simulations and the experimental, we found that the figure in this study is $-5.00\pm0.11$ kcal/mol and those of the computer simulations are $-5.40\pm1.9$, -5.5, and -5.4 kcal/mol. The experimental is -5.1 kcal/mol. There is good agreement among various studies, taking into account both methods used to obtain the hydration free energies and standard deviations. There is also good agreement between the calculated structural properties of this study and the simulations, ab initio and the experimental results. We have explained the deviation of the relationship between the free energy difference and the Onsager dielectric function of solvents by the electron pair donor properties of the solvents. For the $Rb^+$ and $K^+$ ion pair, the Onsager dielectric function of solvents (or solvent permittivity), donor number of solvent and the differences in solvation dominate the differences in the relative free energies of solvation and partition coefficients.

The equivalent conductances for tetraethylammonium perchlorate (TEAP), tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP), tetrahexylammonium perchlorate (THAP), and tetradodecylammonium perchlorate (TDDAP) were measured in pyridine (Py) at 25 ℃. The measured data have been analyzed by Onsager conductance theory. From Kohirausch's law of independent migration of ion, the limiting ionic conductances of tetraalkylammonium ions were determined using the limiting ionic conductance of perchlorate cited from reference. Using those and viscosity of pyridine, the Stokes and hydrodynamic radii of tetraethylammonium, tetrabutylammonium, tetrahexylammonium, and tetradodechylammonium ions were calculated. And, the salvation numbers of corresponding ions were also calculated using the hydrodynamic and crystallographic radii and the volume of one pyridine molecule. From those results, the model of salvation for those ions was extracted by comparison with the model for ion salvation. And the electrostatic Gibbs free energy (ΔGel) fitted for our salvation model was calculated. Those of corresponding ions in pyridine at 25 ℃ also increased with increasing radii of tetraalkylammonium ions. This trend of ΔGel was explained by the different ion-solvent interaction between tetraalkylammonium ion and pyridine.

The compound 3-(2-Mercaptopyridine)phthalonitrile has been synthesized and characterized by IR, UV-vis, and X-ray single-crystal determination. The molecular geometry from X-ray determination of the title compound in the ground state has been compared using the Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT) with the 6-31G(d) basis set. The calculated results show that the DFT and HF can well reproduce the structure of the title compound. The energetic behavior of the title compound in solvent media was examined using the B3LYP method with the 6-31G(d) basis set by applying the Onsager and polarizable continuum model. Using the TD-DFT and TD-HF methods, electronic absorption spectra of the title compound have been predicted and good agreement with the TD-DFT method and the experimental determination was found. The predicted nonlinear optical properties of the title compound are much greater than those of urea. Besides, molecular electrostatic potential of the title compound were investigated by theoretical calculations. The thermodynamic properties of the compound at different temperatures have been calculated and corresponding relations between the properties and temperature have also been obtained.
