Diffusion Constant of a Polymer Chain in Biomembranes
نویسندگان
چکیده
The diffusion constant of a polymer chain1noving in a biomeInbrane is calculated within a two-dimensional hydrodynamical model coupled to an ambient fluid through the mornentuIn dissipation1nechanis1n. The obtained diffusion constant depends on the polymer size logarithmically and algebraically for the weak and strong coupling lirnits~ respectively. In a simple model of the diffusion of macromolecules such as proteins made of

Numerical Simulation of Non-Uniform Gas Diffusion Layer Porosity Effect on Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell Performance
Gas diffusion layers are essential components of proton exchange membrane fuel cell since the reactants should pass through these layers. Mass transport in these layers is highly dependent on porosity. Many of simulations have assumed, for simplicity, the porosity of GDL is constant, but in practice, there is a considerable variation in porosity along gas diffusion layers. In the present study ...
متن کاملKinetic of Disperse Dye on Compounded PET Polyethylene Terephthalate Using Hyperbranched Polymeric Additive as A Nanomaterial
This paper presents the influence of Hybrane H 1500 as a hyperbranched polymer on kinetic parameters of dyeing compounded fiber grade PET polyethylene terephthalate at boil temperature. C.I. Disperse Red 324 as a disperse dye was used for dyeing compounded fiber grade PET. The result was compared with corresponding properties of virgin PET. The dyeing rate constants and diffusion coefficients a...
متن کاملDamped Orientational Diffusion Model of Polymer Local, Main Chain Motion. 4. Effects of Probes and Side Chains
The complex damped orientational diffusion model of polymer local, main chain motion in moderately dilute solution is extended to include the effects of attached probes and periodic side chains on the dynamics. In the case of an appended probe attached to the main chain, a prescription is given for extracting the contribution of the probe to the local, main chain dynamics and thereby allows one...
متن کاملKinetic and microstructural studies of Cp2ZrCl2 and Cp2HfCl2-catalyzed oligomerization of higher α-olefins in mPAO oil base stocks production
Herein a quenched-flow kinetic technique was applied to calculate the rate constants of 1-hexene and 1-octene oligomerization catalyzed by the Cp2ZrCl2 and Cp2HfCl2/MAO catalyst systems, and subsequently a mechanism for the higher α-olefin oligomerization reaction was proposed. The oligomerization results showed that Zr-based catalyst in the oligomerization of 1-octene had the highest activity ...
متن کاملMolecular-dynamics simulation study of the glass transition in amorphous polymers with controlled chain stiffness.
We report computation results obtained from extensive coarse-grained molecular-dynamics simulations of amorphous ensembles of polymer chains at constant density. In our polymer model, we use bending and torsion potentials acting along the polymer backbone to control the chain stiffness. The static and dynamic properties of the polymer bulk have been analyzed over a large temperature interval in...
