Polymers pushing Polymers: Polymer Mixtures in Thermodynamic Equilibrium with a Pore [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2012 We investigate polymer partitioning from polymer mixtures into nanometer size cavities by formulating an equation of state for a binary polymer mixture assuming that only one (smaller) of the two polymer components can penetrate the cavity. Deriving the partitioning equilibrium equations and solving them numerically allows us to introduce the concept ...
