Molecular Simulations of the Hydration Behavior of a Zwitterion Brush Array and Its Antifouling Property in an Aqueous Environment

We carried out umbrella sampling and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate molecular interactions between sulfobetaine zwitterions or between sulfobetaine brushes in different media. Simulation results show that it is more energetically favorable for the two sulfobetaine zwitterions or...
