Lattice Monte Carlo simulations of polymer melts.
We use Monte Carlo simulations to study polymer melts consisting of fully flexible and moderately stiff chains in the bond fluctuation model at a volume fraction 0.5. In order to reduce the local density fluctuations, we test a pre-packing process for the preparation of the initial configurations of the polymer melts, before the excluded volume interaction is switched on completely. This proces...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulations of polymer brushes.
Three-dimensional Monte Carlo simulations of flexible and semiflexible polymer brushes at various grafting densities are carried out to study their equilibrium structure and attendant properties by using the bond fluctuation model. Our simulation results of long flexible polymer brushes are, in general, consistent with predictions of the self-consistent field theory. However, a depletion layer ...
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...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of Interfaces in Polymer Blends
We review recent simulation studies of interfaces between immiscible homopolymer phases. Special emphasis is given to the presentation of efficient simulation techniques and powerful methods of data analysis, such as the analysis of capillary wave spectra. Possible reasons for polymer incompatibility and ways to relate model dependent interaction parameters to an effective Flory Huggins paramet...
متن کاملMonte Carlo simulations of lattice models for single polymer systems.
Single linear polymer chains in dilute solutions under good solvent conditions are studied by Monte Carlo simulations with the pruned-enriched Rosenbluth method up to the chain length N~O(10(4)). Based on the standard simple cubic lattice model (SCLM) with fixed bond length and the bond fluctuation model (BFM) with bond lengths in a range between 2 and √10, we investigate the conformations of p...
