Dynamics and Rheology of Ring-Linear Blend Semidilute Solutions in Extensional Flow: Single Molecule Experiments
Yuecheng Zhou, Charles D. Young, Kathryn E. Regan +7
Ring polymers exhibit unique flow properties due to their closed chain topology. Despite recent progress, we have not yet achieved a full understanding of the nonequilibrium flow b…

Viscoelastic properties of ring-linear DNA blends exhibit non-monotonic dependence on blend composition
K. R. Peddireddy, M. Lee, C. M. Schroeder +1
Entangled ring polymers, along with blends of ring and linear polymers, continue to be a topic of great interest and debate due to the conflicting experimental results in the liter…

Unexpected entanglement dynamics in semidilute blends of supercoiled and ring DNA
Karthik R. Peddireddy, Megan Lee, Yuecheng Zhou +4
Blends of polymers of different topologies, such as ring and supercoiled, naturally occur in biology and often exhibit emergent viscoelastic properties coveted in industry. However…
