Non-linear elasticity effects and stratification in brushes of branched polyelectrolytes
Inna O. Lebedeva, Oleg V. Shavykin, Igor M. Neelov +3
Brushes formed by arm-tethered starlike polyelectrolytes may exhibit internal segregation into weakly and strongly extended populations (stratified two-layer structure) when strong…
Elastic Properties of Symmetric Liquid-Liquid Interfaces
Ramanathan Varadharajan, Frans A M Leermakers
The mean () and Gaussian () bending rigidities of liquid-liquid interfaces, of importance for shape fluctuations and topology of interfaces, respectively, are not yet est…
Microemulsion sponge phase as a manifestation of the superflexibility critical point of tensionless balanced liquid-liquid interfaces
Ramanathan Varadharajan, Frans A. M. Leermakers
We have analyzed the mechanical properties of surfactant loaded tensionless balanced liquid/liquid interfaces using self-consistent field theory implementing a coarse grained model…
Sign switch of Gaussian bending modulus for microemulsions; a self-consistent field analysis exploring scale invariant curvature energies
Ramanathan Varadharajan, Frans. A. M. Leermakers
Bending rigidities of tensionless balanced liquid-liquid interfaces as occurring in microemulsions are predicted using self-consistent field theory for molecularly inhomogeneous sy…
Self-consistent field predictions for quenched spherical biocompatible triblock copolymer micelles
Jérôme G. J. L. Lebouille, Remco Tuinier, Leo F. W. Vleugels +2
We have used the Scheutjens-Fleer self-consistent field (SF-SCF) method to predict the self-assembly of triblock copolymers with a solvophilic middle block and sufficiently long so…
Mechanical unfolding of a homopolymer globule studied by self-consistent field modelling
Alexey A. Polotsky, Marat I. Charlaganov, Frans A. M. Leermakers +3
We present results of numerical self-consistent field (SCF) calculations for the equilibrium mechanical unfolding of a globule formed by a single flexible polymer chain collapsed i…
