Amphiphilic molecules can alter the wettability of soil minerals. To determine how the headgroup chemistry of amphiphiles determines these effects, we investigate a system of the clay montmorillonite with long-chain phospholipids. We use phosphatidylglycerol (PG) phospholipids to contrast with our previous work using phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) lipids. Zwitterionic PE lipids can sorb to the negatively charged montmorillonite surface, whereas negatively charged PG lipids cannot. Employing a suite of techniques from molecular dynamics
