Polymer Chain Adsorption on a Solid Surface: Scaling Arguments and Computer Simulations
A. Milchev, V. Rostiashvili, S. Bhattacharya +1
We examine the phase transition of polymer adsorption as well as the underlying kinetics of polymer binding from dilute solutions on a structureless solid surface. The emphasis is…
Pulling an adsorbed polymer chain off a solid surface
S. Bhattacharya, A. Milchev, V. G. Rostiashvili +1
The thermally assisted detachment of a self-avoiding polymer chain from an adhesive surface by an external force applied to one of the chain ends is investigated. We perform our st…
Forced-induced desorption of a polymer chain adsorbed on an attractive surface - Theory and Computer Experiment
S. Bhattacharya, V. G. Rostiashvili, A. Milchev +1
We consider the properties of a self-avoiding polymer chain, adsorbed on a solid attractive substrate which is attached with one end to a pulling force. The conformational properti…
Polymer desorption under pulling: a novel dichotomic phase transition
S. Bhattacharya, V. G. Rostiashvili, A. Milchev +1
We show that the structural properties and phase behavior of a self-avoiding polymer chain on adhesive substrate, subject to pulling at the chain end, can be obtained by means of a…
Anomalous diffusion of a tethered membrane: A Monte Carlo investigation
Hristina Popova, Andrey Milchev
Using a continuum bead-spring Monte Carlo model, we study the anomalous diffusion dynamics of a self-avoiding tethered membrane by means of extensive computer simulations. We focus…
Adsorption Kinetics of a Single Polymer on a Solid Plane
S. Bhattacharya, A. Milchev, V. G. Rostiashvili +2
We study analytically and by means of an off-lattice bead-spring dynamic Monte Carlo simulation model the adsorption kinetics of a single macromolecule on a structureless flat subs…
