Persistence length and plateau modulus of semiflexible entangled polymers in primitive chain network simulations

Yuichi Masubuchi, Manlio Tassieri, Giovanni Ianniruberto +1

The relationship between the plateau modulus (G_0) and the persistence length (L_p) of entangled semiflexible polymers is still uncertain. Some previous theoretical models have pre…
