Application

  • Computational study of the unimolecular and bimolecular decomposition mechanisms of propylamine: A computational analysis revealed detailed reaction mechanisms for propylamine, focusing on dehydrogenation processes which could be crucial for developing better industrial synthesis techniques (Almatarneh et al., 2020).
  • Structural transformation and tuning behavior induced by propylamine concentration in hydrogen clathrate hydrates: This study provides fundamental understanding of guest-host distributions in clathrate hydrates, which are vital for applications in gas storage and separation technologies (Park et al., 2015).
  • Molecular association of small amphiphiles: Origin of ionic liquid properties in dibutyl phosphate/propylamine binary mixtures: The study explores the dynamic properties of propylamine mixtures, which could inform the development of new materials with ionic liquid-like characteristics for various industrial applications (Liveri et al., 2018).
