Atomistic simulation for coil-to-globule transition of poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate).
The coil-to-globule transition of poly(2-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDMAEMA) in aqueous solution was investigated by all-atomistic molecular dynamics simulations. The polymer consistent force field (PCFF) was applied to the PDMAEMA model with a proper protonation state. The structural analysis indicates a distinct difference in the hydration state of particular functional groups of PDMAE...
متن کاملCoil-to-globule transition by dissipative particle dynamics simulation.
The dynamics of a collapsing polymer under a temperature quench in dilute solution is investigated by dissipative particles dynamics. Hydrodynamic interactions and many-body interaction are preserved naturally by incorporating explicit solvent particles in this approach. Our simulation suggests a four-stage collapse pathway: localized clusters formation, cluster coarsening in situ, coarsening i...
متن کاملSynthesis and thermal characterization of polymethyl methacrylate
PMMA with molecular mass (PMMA Mw: 1.2×105) was synthesized through AIBN initiated free radical polymerization methyl methacrylate at 100 ± 1°C.The synthesized polymer was characterized through GPC coupled with RI detector in presence of THF as mobile phase at 1.0 mL/ min and simultaneous TG-DTA-DTG in nitrogen. TG data were used to investigate the non-isothermal kinetics of solid-state decompo...
متن کاملUnified description of solvent effects in the helix-coil transition.
We analyze the problem of the helix-coil transition in explicit solvents analytically by using spin-based models incorporating two different mechanisms of solvent action: explicit solvent action through the formation of solvent-polymer hydrogen bonds that can compete with the intrinsic intra-polymer hydrogen bonded configurations (competing interactions) and implicit solvent action, where the s...
متن کاملReentrant coil-to-globule-to-coil transition of a single linear homopolymer chain in a water/methanol mixture.
Both water and methanol are good solvents for poly( N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) at room temperature, but strangely not a mixture of them. Using narrowly distributed linear PNIPAM chains (M(w) = 2.6x10(7) g/mol and M(w)/M(n)<1.1), we have, for the first time, observed a coil-to-globule-to-coil transition of a single PNIPAM chain when methanol was gradually added into water. This novel reentr...
