Monte Carlo simulations of copolymers at homopolymer interfaces: Interfacial structure as a function of the copolymer density [PDF]
By means of extensive Monte Carlo simulations of the bond fluctuation model, we study the effect of adding AB diblock copolymers on the properties of an interface between demixed homopolymer phases. The parameters are chosen such that the homopolymers are strongly segregated, and the whole range of copolymer concentrations in the two phase coexistence ...

Phase Behavior of Block Copolymer Nanocomposite Systems [PDF]
Nanocomposite materials made of block copolymer and nanoparticles display properties which can be different from the purely polymeric matrix. The resulting material is a crossover of the original properties of the block copolymer and the presence of the assembled nanoparticles.

Macroporous copolymer networks
Macroporous copolymer networks form as a result of the phase separation during the free-radical crosslinking copolymerization of vinyl and divinyl monomers in the presence of an inert diluent. In this article, the develop- ments achieved in the field of macroporous networks over the last few years are presented.

Composite membranes for proton exchange membrane fuel cells based on methyl methacrylate-co-maleimide /phosphotungstic acid [PDF]
Poly(methyl methacrylate-co-nitrophenyl maleimide) (MMA-co-NMI) and poly(methyl methacrylate-co-hydroxyphenyl maleimide) (MMA-co-HMI) copolymers were synthesized using free radical polymerization of MMA with a new MI monomer containing phenyl ...

Current polymer terminology only describes very simple copolymer structures such as block, graft, alternating periodic, or statistical copolymers. This restricted vocabulary implies that copolymers exhibit either segregated (i.e., block and graft), regular (i.e., alternating and periodic), or uncontrolled (i.e., statistical or random) comonomer ...

DNA multiblock copolymers [PDF]
Single stranded (ss) DNA block copolymers were applied to synthesize DNA multiblock architectures by hybridization; these polymeric bioorganic hybrids were characterized by gel electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry.

Random Copolymer inverse design system orienting on Accurate discovering of Antimicrobial peptide-mimetic copolymers [PDF]
Antimicrobial resistance is one of the biggest health problem, especially in the current period of COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the unique membrane-destruction bactericidal mechanism, antimicrobial peptide-mimetic copolymers are paid more attention and it is urgent to find more potential candidates with broad-spectrum antibacterial efficacy and low ...

Monte Carlo simulations of random copolymers at a selective interface [PDF]
We investigate numerically using the bond--fluctuation model the adsorption of a random AB--copolymer at the interface between two solvents. From our results we infer several scaling relations: the radius of gyration of the copolymer in the direction perpendicular to the interface ($R_{gz}$) scales with $\chi$, the interfacial selectivity strength, as $

Antifoaming Agent for Lubricating Oil: Preparation, Mechanism and Application
In the process of using lubricating oil, it is inevitable that bubbles will be produced, which can not only accelerate the oil’s oxidation and shorten the oil change cycle but also reduce its fluidity and lubricity, aggravate the wear of mechanical parts
