Rheology of Binary Polymer Blends under External Electric Fields
We investigate the relation between the structures of domains and the increase of stress under imposed electric field by performing simulations of the system composed of two kinds of fluids inserted between two plates of electrodes. It is found that the stress is significantly increased under applied electric fields as compared with the one of system under no external field. Under shear flows w...
متن کاملPolymer translocation through a nanopore under an applied external field.
We investigate the dynamics of polymer translocation through a nanopore under an externally applied field using the two-dimensional fluctuating bond model with single-segment Monte Carlo moves. We concentrate on the influence of the field strength E, length of the chain N, and length of the pore L on forced translocation. As our main result, we find a crossover scaling for the translocation tim...
متن کاملStatistical theory of polarizable target compound impregnation into a polymer coil under the influence of an electric field.
The paper presents a theoretical approach for describing the influence of an electric field on the conformation of an electrically neutral dielectric polymer chain dissolved in a dielectric solvent with an admixture of a target compound. Each monomer and each molecule of the target compound carries positive excess polarizability and the solvent is described as a continuous dielectric medium. Th...
متن کاملBuckling instabilities in dilute polymer solution elastic strands
A microfluidic oscillatory cross-slot flow is used to visualize birefringent strands in dilute polystyrene solutions with high temporal resolution, focusing specifically on reversals in the flow direction. Due to polymer conformation hysteresis, the elastic strands are slow to relax and demonstrate a compressive modulus, resulting in a “buckling instability.” An elastic loop of birefringence fo...
متن کاملMonte-Carlo simulations of polymer crystallization in dilute solution
Polymer crystallization in dilute solution is studied by three-dimensional Monte-Carlo simulations using the bond fluctuation model. We study monodisperse chains of moderate length, intended to model recent experiments on monodisperse alkanes with length of a few hundred carbon atoms, and we also investigate chain folding of very long polymers. For monodisperse flexible chains we observe both e...
