Generalized model for the diffusion of solvents in glassy polymers: From Fickian to super Case II
Jiayuan Miao, Mesfin Tsige, Philip L. Taylor
The diffusion of small solvent molecules in glassy polymers may take on a variety of different forms. Fickian, anomalous, Case II, and super Case II diffusion have all been observe…
Simulation Study of Ion Diffusion in Charged Nanopores with Anchored Terminal Groups
Elshad Allahyarov, Hartmut Löwen, Philip L. Taylor
We present coarse-grained simulation results for enhanced ion diffusion in a charged nanopore grafted with ionomer sidechains. The pore surface is hydrophobic and its diameter is v…
Simulation Study of Sulfonate Cluster Swelling in Ionomers
Elshad Allahyarov, Philip L. Taylor, Hartmut Löwen
We have performed simulations to study how increasing humidity affects the structure of Nafion-like ionomers under conditions of low sulfonate concentration and low humidity. At th…
Predicted field-induced hexatic structure in an ionomer membrane
Elshad Allahyarov, Philip L. Taylor
Coarse-grained molecular-dynamics simulations were used to study the morphological changes induced in a Nafion-like ionomer by the imposition of a strong…
Correlation between structure and conductivity of stretched Nafion
E. Allahyarov, P. Taylor
We have used coarse-grained simulation methods to investigate the effect of stretching-induced structure orientation on the proton conductivity of Nafion-like polyelectrolyte membr…
Role of electrostatic forces in cluster formation in a dry ionomer
Elshad Allahyarov, Philip L. Taylor
This simulation study investigates the dependence of the structure of dry Nafion-like ionomers on the electrostatic interactions between the components of…
Exponential Decay of Correlations in a Model for Strongly Disordered 2D Nematic Elastomers
Y. -K. Yu, P. L. Taylor, E. M. Terentjev
Lattice Monte-Carlo simulations were performed to study the equilibrium ordering in a two-dimensional nematic system with quenched random disorder. When the disordering field, whic…
