Entropically driven transition to a liquid-crystalline polymer globule
Christian Nowak, Vakhtang G. Rostiashvili, Thomas A. Vilgis
A self-consistent-field theory (SCFT) in the grand canonical ensemble formulation is used to study transitions in a helix-coil multiblock copolymer globule. The helices are modeled…
Copolymer adsorption kinetics at a selective liquid-liquid interface: Scaling theory and computer experiment
Andrea Corsi, Andrey Milchev, Vakhtang G. Rostiashvili +1
We consider the adsorption kinetics of a regular block-copolymer of total length and block size at a selective liquid-liquid interface in the limit of strong localization.…
Self-consistent variational theory for globules
Arti Dua, Thomas A. Vilgis
A self-consistent variational theory for globules based on the uniform expansion method is presented. This method, first introduced by Edwards and Singh to estimate the size of a s…
