Conformations of polydisperse polymer solutions : bimodal distribution
2014 Starting with the Flory theory for one long flexible polymer chain of N segments in a homopolymer melt of shorter (P segments) chains, we employ scaling arguments to construct the « phase diagram » of an athermal bimodal solution, i.e. a ternary system composed of N chains, P chains, and solvent. Qualitatively the presence of short chains reduces the effective solvent quality as experience...
متن کاملBimodal distribution in branched polymer solutions
2014 We study the swelling of one very large molecule made of N monomers in a mixture of a good solvent and shorter polymers of P units of the same chemical species. All the macromolecules are branched. The total concentration is larger than the contact concentration C* of the short chains. When P decreases, the radius of gyration of the probe chain crosses-over from a N 1/3 behaviour typical o...
متن کامل0 Polydisperse star polymer solutions
We analyze the effect of polydispersity in the arm number on the effective interactions , structural correlations and the phase behavior of star polymers in a good solvent. The effective interaction potential between two star polymers with different arm numbers is derived using scaling theory. The resulting expression is tested against monomer-resolved molecular dynamics simulations. We find th...
متن کاملAdsorption of polydisperse polymer chains
The adsorption of polydisperse ideal polymer chains is shown to be sensitive to the large N tail of the distribution of chains. If and only if the number of chains decays more slowly than exponentially then there is an adsorption transition like that of monodisperse infinite chains. If the number decays exponentially the adsorption density diverges continuously at a temperature which is a funct...
متن کاملPearson-type I Distribution Function for Polydisperse Polymer Systems. Molar Mass Distribution
This paper presents an attractive feature of the distribution function, which uses a relatively simple expression for approximating probability density. The Pearson-type I distribution function is used to represent the molar mass distribution (MMD) function for polymers for which the number average (M(n)), mass average (M(w)), z-average (M(z)), and (z+1)-average (M(z)(+1)) values are available....
