Spinodal curve of a three-component molecular system
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider a lattice model for three-component systems in which the lattice bonds are covered by molecules of type AA, BB, and AB, and the only interactions are between the molecular ends of a common lattice site. The model is equivalent to the standard Ising model, and the coexistence curves for different lattices and/or some specific form of the interactions have been previously investigated. We derive the spinodal curve of the three-component model on the honeycomb lattice based on the mean-field and Bethe-lattice results of the equivalent Ising model. The spinodal and the coexistence curves of the ternary solution are drawn at different values of the reduced temperature, the only parameter of the model. The particular case of a two-component system is also illustrated.

Formation of Poly(vinylidene fluoride) Nanofibers Part II: the elaboration of incompatibility in the electrospinning of its solutions
Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) fibers with two molecular weights were prepared via electrospinning process. In this process, the concentration of spinning depended drastically on the gelation process. Also, it was experimentally smaller than obtained concentration in the solution entanglement number approach (SENA). Proof of this incompatibility was explained by the properties of PVDF a...
متن کاملConcentration fluctuation in binary polymer blends: x parameter, spinodal and Ginzburg criterion
A theory for concentration fluctuations in binary polymer blends is developed using field-theoretic techniques. The theory provides a simple, unified framework for addressing a number of important issues. First, consideration of the fluctuation and correlation effects on different length scales leads to a clarification of three different x parameters and their interrelationship. By incorporatin...

The non-equilibrium self-consistent generalized Langevin equation theory of irreversible relaxation [P. E. Ramŕez-González and M. Medina-Noyola, Phys. Rev. E 82, 061503 (2010); 82, 061504 (2010)] is applied to the description of the non-equilibrium processes involved in the spinodal decomposition of suddenly and deeply quenched simple liquids. For model liquids with hard-sphere plus attractive ...
متن کاملEffective Interactions, Structure, and Phase Behavior of Lightly Tethered Nanoparticles in Polymer Melts
We have generalized the microscopic polymer reference interaction site model (PRISM) theory to study the structure and phase behavior of polymer-tethered spherical nanoparticles in a dense homopolymer melt. In the absence of a polymer matrix, fluids of such hybrid nanoparticles show strong concentration fluctuations indicative of aggregate formation and/or a tendency for microphase separation a...
