Evaluation of Automated Synthesis for Chain and Step- Growth Polymerizations: Can Robots Replace the Chemists?
This article explores current challenges in the use of automated parallel synthesizers in polymeric materials research. Four types of polymerizations were investigated: carbodiimide-mediated polyesterification, diphenol phosgenation, free radical, and reversible addition-fragmentation chain-transfer (RAFT). Synthetic challenges of condensation polymerization, such as liquid and solid dispensing...
متن کاملFlory theory for polymers.
We review various simple analytical theories for homopolymers within a unified framework. The common guideline of our approach is the Flory theory, and its various avatars, with the attempt at being reasonably self-contained. We expect this review to be useful as an introduction to the topic at the graduate student level.
متن کاملFLORY THEORY REVISITED by
The Flory theory for a single polymer chain is derived as the lowest order of a cumulant expansion. In this approach, the full original Flory free energy (including the logarithmic term), is recovered. The prefactors of the elastic and repulsive energy are calculated from the microscopic parameters. The method can be applied to other types of monomer-monomer interactions, and the case of a sing...
متن کاملRefined BCF-type boundary conditions for mesoscale surface step dynamics
Deposition on a vicinal surface with alternating rough and smooth steps is described by a solid-on-solid model with anisotropic interactions. Kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulations of the model reveal step pairing in the absence of any additional step attachment barriers. We explore the description of this behavior within an analytic Burton-Cabrera-Frank (BCF)-type step dynamics treatment. Witho...
متن کاملThe theta-point and critical point of polymeric fractals : a step beyond Flory approximation
We propose a new form of free energy for polymeric fractals (chain-like, branched or membranes) based on self-similarity arguments and on the existence of a maximum gyration radius. Results are obtained conceming the size exponents at the theta-point and critical point. These two exponents depend on a single parameter only, for which a simple phenomenological expression is provided. A very good...
