Using 3-dimensional Langevin dynamics simulations, we investigated the dynamics of loop formation of chains with excluded volume interactions, and the stability of the formed loop. The mean looping time τ l scales with chain length N and corresponding scaling exponent α increases linearly with the capture radius scaled by the Kuhn length a ...
The morphology and dynamics of polymerization-induced phase separation in the initially homogeneous solution of a non-reactive component in reactive monomers are investigated by incorporating the reaction kinetics into the Cahn–Hilliard equation. Analytical results show that there is a reduction of the initial length scale in the early stage of phase separation. The reason is the increase of the molecule...
For asymmetric diblock copolymers under steady shear flow, the orientational phase transitions in the hexagonal cylinder phase and the kinetics of lamellar to hexagonal phase transition were studied based on the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau approach. As to orientational phase transitions in the hexagonal cylinder phase, the simulation results show that the parallel orientation is stable at low shear...
