A Monte Carlo model is used to study the effect of environmental variables (pH and temperature) on transport release dexamethasone molecules from Halloysite Nanotubes (HNTs) in a dielectric fluid medium. The for this was introduced elsewhere it based basic physics interactions without experimental parameters these interactions. An intermediate phase between burst saturation found explained. Molecules experience 1-D diffusion process that different or surface experienced by attached wall. It...
In this work a three-dimensional, time-quantified Monte Carlo model that efficiently describes diffusion through and from nanotubes is implemented. Controlled delivery Halloysite Nano-tubes (HNT) modeled based on interactions between the HNT's inner wall nanoparticles (NPs) among NPs themselves. The was validated using published experimental data. then used to study effect of multiples parameter like HNT diameter length, particle charge, ambient temperature release encapsulated NPs. results...
