Density functional method with continuum solvation model is used for calculation of partition coefficient logKOW and determination of lipophilicity of 22 most frequently used organophosphate type pesticides. Excellent agreement with experimental data is obtained using three different density functional approximations (one local, one general gradient and one hybrid), and our result highlights DFT as a reliable and trustworthy method for calculation and of lipophilicity for this important class of molecules. Furthermore, calculated lipophilicity results are associated with experimentally determined LD50 and LC50 values, showing that the most toxic pesticides are these with transient characteristics (medium lipophilicity), although this concussion must be taken with a caution due to the many factors influencing the ingestion and action of a certain substance in the body beside lipophilicity.

This work studies the aggregation of an synthetic ultraviolet absorbent, named 2-hydroxy-4-perfluoroheptanoate-benzophenone (HPFHBP), in the interface between two solvents which can not completely dissolve each other. The aggregation is studied by computer simulations based on a dynamic density functional method and mean-field interactions, which are implemented in the MesoDyn module and Blend module of Material Studios. The simulation results show that the synthetic ultraviolet absorbent diffuse to the interface phase and the concentration in the interface phase is greater than it in the solvents phase.

Within the framework of the density functional theory, the method was developed to calculate the band gap of semiconductors. We have evaluated the band gap for a number of monoatomic and diatomic semiconductors (Sn, Ge, Si, SiC, GaN, C, BN, AlN). The method gives the band gap of almost experimental accuracy. An important point is the fact that the developed method can be used to calculate both localized states (energy deep levels of defects in crystal), and electronic properties of nanostructures.
