Dynamics in Polymer Nanocomposites
Polymer diffusion and matrix morphology are investigated in polymer nanocomposites (PNCs). Using elastic recoil detection, tracer diffusion coefficients (D) of dPS and dPMMA are measured in PNCs containing polystyrene (PS) with phenyl-capped (Ph) silica, and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) with hydroxylterminated (OH) silica nanoparticles (NPs), respectively. As NP volume fraction increases or...
متن کاملSynthesis of Polymer—Mesoporous Silica Nanocomposites
Polymer nanocomposites show unique properties combining the advantages of the inorganic nanofillers and the organic polymers. The mesoporous silica nanofillers have received much attention due to their ordered structure, high surface area and ease for functionalization of the nanopores. To accommodate macromolecules, the nanopores lead to unusually intimate interactions between the polymer and ...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of polymer transport in nanocomposites.
Molecular dynamics simulations on the Kremer-Grest bead-spring model of polymer melts are used to study the effect of spherical nanoparticles on chain diffusion. We find that chain diffusivity is enhanced relative to its bulk value when polymer-particle interactions are repulsive and is reduced when polymer-particle interactions are strongly attractive. In both cases chain diffusivity assumes i...
متن کاملA Molecular Dynamics Study of Polymer/graphene Nanocomposites
In this work, we study three hybrid polymer/graphene interfacial systems (polystyrene/graphene, poly(methyl-methacrylate)/graphene and polyethylene/graphene) through detailed atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Density profiles, structural characteristics and mobility aspects are being examined at the molecular level for all model systems. In addition, we compare the properties of th...
متن کاملPolymer Characterization: Polymer Molecular Weight Determination
Polymers are large molecules consisting of a large number of small component molecules chemically linked together. They are made from constituent monomers through polymerization process. Polymers are unique materials in that they consist of a statistical distribution of chains of varying lengths, and each chain consists of monomer residues which affect its properties hence they require several ...
