Auburn University received a $271,389 project grant award from the National Science Foundation Division of Chemical, Bioengineering, Environmental, and Transport Systems under the Engineering federal grant program (CFDA 47.041). The award will fund the development of mathematical models to investigate the drying-induced assembly of nanoparticles with interaction or shape anisotropy into colloidal supraparticles from September 15, 2022 through August 31, 2025. Specifically, complementary particle-based and continuum models will be developed using multiparticle collision dynamics and classical dynamic density functional theory approaches, respectively, and applied to "patchy" nanoparticles with anisotropic attraction and rod-like nanoparticles with anisotropic shape. The models aim to characterize local nanoparticle density and orientational order to systematically examine how both nanoparticle properties and processing conditions determine porosity distribution in supraparticles.
