The phrase "a decrease in intermolecular" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or academic contexts when discussing changes in intermolecular forces or interactions.
Example: "The experiment showed a decrease in intermolecular attraction as the temperature increased."
Alternatives: "a reduction in intermolecular" or "a decline in intermolecular".
This may be explained by the fact that when the cornea dries, water is first lost from between the fibrils and only when the tissue reaches a water content of below ∼50% is it also lost from the fibrils themselves [27,46], resulting in a decrease in collagen intermolecular spacing [27].
During the incubation, JD and AT3Q24 spectra underwent similar changes that point to a decrease in intramolecular β-sheet and α-helical/disordered structures, and a concurrent increase in intermolecular β-sheet, clearly representative of the aggregation process.
As is known to be the case in bovine corneas [27], and here shown in human corneas, a reduction in hydration led to a decrease in the average Bragg intermolecular spacing of collagen (Fig. 4).
Further variation in the amount of NPOE gives higher transport efficiency up to 0.03 ml of NPOE which might be due to the favorable plasticizer plasticization effect, beyond which a decrease in transport was attributed to intermolecular interaction between target and plasticizer molecule resulting in lower mass transfer (Nghiem et al. 2006).
It was limited to adsorption on homogeneous surface by monolayer formation, with decrease in intermolecular forces among adsorbed molecules and also uniform energies of adsorption with no transmigration of adsorbed molecules (Dey et al. 2015; Eastoe and Dalton 2000).
The intensity of the peaks at Ɵ = 38o, 43o, and 49.7o in GW3 was reduced in GW3PG and GW3CQ loaded with drugs and this is attributed to decrease in intermolecular interactions between the polymeric chains, which in turn decreases the degree of the crystallinity.
The decrease of ST with increasing temperature is usually associated with a decrease in density due to the increase of intermolecular distances.
For polar solvents, there is a decrease in velocity by increasing the concentration due to strong intermolecular interactions (Fig. 5).
The behavior of the polymer matrix in the glass transition temperature range at decreasing temperature is specified by increase in the mechanical stiffness of the polymer due to a decrease in the segmental mobility of molecules and a growth of the energy of intermolecular interaction.
Theoretical calculations have indicated that intermolecular bonds between phosphoric acid and the zeolitic framework lead to a decrease in acid site strength.
