Here, we present new buffering-out phase separation systems that the above mentioned organic aqueous solutions can be induced to form two liquid phases in the presence of a biological buffer 2-[[1,3-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)propan-2-yl]amino]ethanesulfonic acid (TES). The lower liquid phase is rich in water and buffer, and the upper phase is organic rich. This observation has both practical and mechanistic interests. The phase diagrams of these systems were constructed by experimental measurements at ambient conditions. Molecular dynamic (MD) simulations were performed for TES + water + THF system to understand the interactions between TES, water, and organic solvent at molecular level. Several composition-sets for this system, beyond and inside the liquid-liquid phase-splitting region, have been simulated. Interestingly, the MD simulation for compositions inside the phase separation region showed that THF molecules are forced out from the water network to start forming a new liquid phase. The hydrogen-bonds, hydrogen-bonds lifetimes, hydrogen-bond energies, radial distribution functions, coordination numbers, the electrostatic interactions, and the van der Waals interactions between the different pairs have been calculated. Additionally, MD simulations for TES + water + tert-butanol\/acetonitrile\/acetone phase separation systems were simulated. The results from MD simulations provide an explanation for the buffering-out phenomena observed in [TES + water + organic solvent] systems by a mechanism controlled by the competitive interactions of the buffer and the organic solvent with water. The molecular mechanism reported here is helpful for designing new benign separation materials.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1063\/1.4809995","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,24]],"date-time":"2013-06-24T22:27:12Z","timestamp":1372112832000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1063\/aip-crossmark-policy-page","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["TES buffer-induced phase separation of aqueous solutions of several water-miscible organic solvents at 298.15 K: Phase diagrams and molecular dynamic simulations"],"prefix":"10.1063","volume":"138","author":[{"given":"Mohamed","family":"Taha","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"National Taiwan University of Science and Technology Department of Chemical Engineering, , 43 Keelung Road, Section 4, Taipei 106-07, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming-Jer","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Taiwan University of Science and Technology Department of Chemical Engineering, , 43 Keelung Road, Section 4, Taipei 106-07, Taiwan"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"317","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2013,6,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023071520474864300_c1","first-page":"22","volume":"26","year":"1925","journal-title":"Z.
