Chemical engineers and researchers interested in a tool to predict thermodynamic properties of liquids accurately, facilitating efficient solvent selection and formulation design

About BIOVIA COSMOtherm

BIOVIA COSMOtherm is an advanced COSMO-RS implementation that combines quantum chemistry and thermodynamics to predict thermodynamic properties of liquids. It calculates the chemical potential of molecules in pure or mixed liquids across variable temperatures, enabling the prediction of properties such as solubility, partitioning, vapor pressure, and phase diagrams. Unlike other methods, COSMOtherm applies thermodynamically consistent equations to predict properties as functions of concentration and temperature. Key features include the ability to predict solubility of liquids, solids, and gases; activity coefficients; two-phase partitioning (e.g., LogP); phase behavior; vapor pressures; free energy of solvation; pKa; energy of transfer to liquid-liquid interfaces; micelle and membrane partitioning; and interfacial tension. COSMOtherm offers an easy-to-use graphical interface and a command-line version for seamless integration into existing workflows.

Khimera
Khimera
Khimera is used to calculate the kinetic parameters of microscopic processes, thermodynamic and transport properties of substances and their mixtures in gases, plasmas and gas-solid phases boundary. The primary users are researchers and engineers, involved in kinetic model development as well as thermodynamic and kinetic modeling for chemical engineering, combustion, catalysis, metallurgy, and microelectronics areas. Khimera ideally fits the needs of multi-scale modeling providing the link between fundamental molecular properties of individual molecules and mesoscale ensemble-averaged characteristics of the reactive medium: thermodynamic and transport properties as well as rates of chemical reactions. All the models can use the results of quantum-chemical simulations as an input, thus providing the possibility to recover properties without any experimental input from the user side.

Aurora Drug Discovery
Aurora Drug Discovery
Aurora employs quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, and an advanced continuous water model for solvation effects to calculate ligand´s binding affinities. This approach differs dramatically from scoring functions that are commonly used for binding affinity predictions. By including the entropy and aqueous electrostatic contributions in to the calculations directly, Aurora algorithms produce much more accurate and robust values of binding free energies. Interaction of a ligand with a protein is characterized by the value of binding free energy. The free energy (F) is the thermodynamic quantity that is directly related to experimentally measurable value of inhibition constant (IC50) and depends on electrostatic, quantum, aqueous solvation forces, as well as on statistical properties of interacting molecules. There are two major contributing quantities leading to non-additivity in F: 1) the electrostatic and solvation energy and 2) the entropy.
