“…Experimental results of gas-liquid scattering 6,9,10,18 have shown that for higher values of incident energy E of the atom or molecule, the IS process dominates and for the lower values of E a significant amount of the incident gas species is temporarily adsorbed. This result, demonstrated in a previous study of the dynamic of I 2 -PFPE scattering 14 is confirmed by the simulation. This is showed in Figure 5, in which the temporal variation of the parameter ρ, as defined in Figure 1, is plotted for the surface models of PDMS (5a and 5d), PFPE (5b and 5e) and squalane (5c and 5f), for a particular set of 10 consecutive trajectories randomly chosen with initial energy of 40 kJ mol -1 (Figures 5a, 5b and 5c) and 10 kJ mol -1 (Figures 5d, 5e, and 5f).…”
