Light scattering by cooperative diffusion in semi-dilute polymer solutions
2014 We report measurements of relaxation times of the autocorrelation function for the Rayleigh line of light scattered by semi-dilute polymer solutions. LE JOURNAL DE PHYSIQUE LETTRES TOME 37, MARS 1976 Classification Physics Abstracts 7.146-7.221-7.610-5.660 Recent observations of polymer diffusive motions by light scattering have dealt with two extreme situations : the very dilute solution ...
متن کاملTheory of semi-dilute polymer solutions
2014 Some properties of semi-dilute poor and good solvent polymer solutions are examined within the framework of the field-theoretic formulism. The uncontrollable polydispersivity inherent in the field-theoretic formulism is shown to produce no errors if the quantity under investigation is molecular weight independent. A renormalization group cross-over calculation correct to order 03B5 is perf...
متن کاملScaling of Nanoparticle Retardation in Semi-dilute Polymer Solutions
We analyze the scaling law for the polymer-induced retardation a nanoparticle experiences as it moves through a semi-dilute polymer solution. The translational friction is calculated from a modified Stokes flow using a local viscosity near the nanosphere. The results rationalize a general retardation factor, R = exp(Kac) [T. Odijk, Biophys. J. 79 (2000) 2314], revealing scaling exponents μ = 0....
متن کاملMolecular-weight dependent thermal diffusion in dilute polymer solutions.
Thermal diffusion of high polymers in a continuous medium is independent of the molecular weight Mw. Accounting for the solvent molecular structure and the Brownian motion of the solute, we derive an additional contribution of opposite sign which is significant for short chains but vanishes as Mw-->infinity. Our findings explain the dependence on Mw observed recently for polystyrene, and its in...
متن کاملSpectra of turbulence in dilute polymer solutions
Turbulence in dilute polymer solutions when polymers are strongly stretched by the flow is investigated. We establish power-law spectra of velocity, that are not associated with a flux of a conserved quantity, in two cases. First, such spectrum is formed in the elastic waves range of high Reynolds number turbulence of polymer solutions above the coil–stretch transition. Second, such spectrum is...
