Density-driven reentrant polymer transitions via saturable bridging crowders

Monmee Phukan, Hitesh Garg, Satyavani Vemparala

Reentrant coil-globule-coil transitions, in which a polymer collapses and then reexpands as a single parameter is varied, have been observed across diverse soft matter systems, yet…

Bridging-induced Aggregation in Neutral Polymers: Dynamics and Morphologies

Hitesh Garg, Satyavani Vemparala

Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate the aggregation behavior of neutral stiff (rod-like) and flexible polymer chains mediated by attractive crowders. Attractive cr…

Neutral polymer conformations with attractive bridging crowder interactions: role of crowder size

Hitesh Garg, Satyavani Vemparala

Extensive molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to explore the conformational phase diagram of a neutral polymer in the presence of attractive crowders of varying sizes. Fo…

Solvent-cosolvent attraction is sufficient to induce polymer collapse in good solvent mixtures

Hitesh Garg, Divya Nayar, Satyavani Vemparala

Cononsolvency occurs when two miscible, competing good solvents for a polymer are mixed, resulting in a loss of solubility. In this study, we demonstrate through simulations, suppo…

The conformational phase diagram of charged polymers in the presence of attractive bridging crowders

Kamal Tripathi, Hitesh Garg, R. Rajesh +1

Using extensive molecular dynamics simulations, we obtain the conformational phase diagram of a charged polymer in the presence of oppositely charged counterions and neutral attrac…
