We argue that the field theory that descibes randomly branched polymers is not generally conformally invariant in two dimensions at its critical point. In particular, we show (i) that the most natural formulation of conformal invariance for randomly branched polymers leads to inconsistencies; (ii) that the free field theory obtained by setting the potential equal to zero in the branched polymer...
متن کاملThe influence of branching efficiency on the rheology and morphology of melt state long chain branched polypropylene/polybutene-1 blends
In this study, the compatibility of the blends of polypropylene (PP) and polybutene-1(PB-1) homopolymer before and after long chain branching process were studied. The blends were prepared and long-chain branched directly via reactive extrusion process in presence of free radical initiator and trimethylolpropane tri methacrylate (TMPTMA) poly functional monomer. The optimum percentage of TMPTMA...
متن کاملRenormalized field theory of collapsing directed randomly branched polymers.
We present a dynamical field theory for directed randomly branched polymers and in particular their collapse transition. We develop a phenomenological model in the form of a stochastic response functional that allows us to address several interesting problems such as the scaling behavior of the swollen phase and the collapse transition. For the swollen phase, we find that by choosing model para...
متن کاملCarnitine palmitoyltransferase 2: New insights on the substrate specificity and implications for acylcarnitine profiling.
Over the last years acylcarnitines have emerged as important biomarkers for the diagnosis of mitochondrial fatty acid beta-oxidation (mFAO) and branched-chain amino acid oxidation disorders assuming they reflect the potentially toxic acyl-CoA species, accumulating intramitochondrially upstream of the enzyme block. However, the origin of these intermediates still remains poorly understood. A pos...
متن کاملSurface crossover exponent for branched polymers in two dimensions
Transfer-matrix methods on finite-width strips with free boundary conditions are applied to lattice site animals, which provide a model for randomly branched polymers in a good solvent. By assigning a distinct fugacity to sites along the strip edges, critical properties at the special (adsorption) and ordinary transitions are assessed. The crossover exponent at the adsorption point is estimated...
