Brushing up on Polymers
A symposium on the topic was held at the ACS national meeting in New Orleans last month. It was cosponsored by the Divisions of Polymer Chemistry and Polymeric Materials: Science & Engineering. The symposium was organized by Brittain; University of Houston associate chemistry professor Rigoberto C. Advincula; Duke University senior research scientist Kenneth C. Caster; and Jürgen Rühe, professo...
متن کاملStretched polymers in a poor solvent.
Stretched polymers with attractive interaction are studied in two and three dimensions. They are described by biased self-avoiding random walks with nearest-neighbor attraction. The bias corresponds to opposite forces applied to the first and last monomers. We show that both in d=2 and d=3 a phase transition occurs as this force is increased beyond a critical value, where the polymer changes fr...
متن کاملThermally activated solvent bonding of polymers
We present a thermally activated solvent bonding technique for the formation of embedded microstructures in polymer. It is based on the temperature dependent solubility of polymer in a liquid that is not a solvent at room temperature. With thermal activation, the liquid is transformed into a solvent of the polymer, creating a bonding capability through segmental or chain interdiffusion at the b...
متن کاملLayered microporous polymers by solvent knitting method
Two-dimensional (2D) nanomaterials, especially 2D organic nanomaterials with unprecedentedly diverse and controlled structure, have attracted decent scientific interest. Among the preparation strategies, the top-down approach is one of the considered low-cost and scalable strategies to obtain 2D organic nanomaterials. However, some factors of their layered counterparts limited the development a...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulations of Off-Lattice Polymers
We point out that a newly introduced recursive algorithm for lattice polymers has a much wider range of applicability. In particular, we apply it to the simulation of off-lattice polymers with Lennard-Jones potentials between nonbonded monomers and either delta or harmonic potentials between bonded monomers. Our algorithm allows particularly easy calculations of the free energy, and seems in ge...
