I am trying to build a realistic Nafion-based PEM system (polymer + water + hydronium) using Amorphous Cell + MD in Materials Studio.
Polymer details:
- Fluorinated backbone (–CF₂–CF–)
- Side chains with –SO₃H groups
- Water and H₃O⁺ are added separately during amorphous cell construction
Approx. composition: C109 H12 O60 F208 S12
Amorphous packing Gives:
- Poor distribution
- Most Atoms outside the box
Unstable structure after MD Run
After MD run the atoms are moving out of the box.
Also Is there any other approach for this work?
