Dimension of ring polymers in bulk studied by Monte-Carlo simulation and self-consistent theory.
We studied equilibrium conformations of ring polymers in melt over the wide range of segment number N of up to 4096 with Monte-Carlo simulation and obtained N dependence of radius of gyration of chains R(g). The simulation model used is bond fluctuation model (BFM), where polymer segments bear excluded volume; however, the excluded volume effect vanishes at N-->infinity, and linear polymer can ...
متن کاملMicrophase Segregation of Diblock Copolymers Studied by the Self-Consistent Field Theory of Scheutjens and Fleer
We used the self-consistent field (SCF) formalism of Scheutjens and Fleer (SF-SCF) to complement existing theoretical investigations on the phase behavior of block copolymer melts. This method employs the freely jointed chain (FJC) model for finite chain length and systematic differences exist compared to the classical SCF predictions. We focus on the critical and hexagonal (HEX) to lamellar (L...
متن کاملSelf-diffusion of polymers in cartilage as studied by pulsed field gradient NMR.
Pulsed field gradient (PFG) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) was used to investigate the self-diffusion behaviour of polymers in cartilage. Polyethylene glycol and dextran with different molecular weights and in different concentrations were used as model compounds to mimic the diffusion behaviour of metabolites of cartilage. The polymer self-diffusion depends extremely on the observation time:...
متن کاملStochastic Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field Theory.
The multiconfigurational self-consistent field theory is considered the standard starting point for almost all multireference approaches required for strongly correlated molecular problems. The limitation of the approach is generally given by the number of strongly correlated orbitals in the molecule, since its cost will grow exponentially with this number. We present a new multiconfigurational...
متن کاملImmersion energy and polymer-mediated depletion interactions between nanocolloids as studied by analytic self-consistent field theory.
By applying the Edwards self-consistent field theory, we calculate the polymer density and free energy excesses caused by the presence of nanocolloids in the excluded volume polymer system. Using the obtained results, we have calculated the depletion potential U as a function of the separation between colloids, colloid radius, polymer volume fraction, and polymer gyration radius. Upon analyzing...
