Mixing, segregation, and collapse transitions of interacting copolymer rings
EJ Janse van Rensburg, E Orlandini, MC Tesi +1
A system of two self and mutual interacting ring polymers, close together in space, can display several competing equilibrium phases and phase transitions. Using Monte Carlo simula…
Force-induced desorption of copolymeric comb polymers
EJ Janse van Rensburg, CE Soteros, SG Whittington
We investigate a lattice model of comb copolymers that can adsorb at a surface and that are subject to a force causing desorption. The teeth and the backbone of the comb are chemic…
Thermodynamic and topological properties of copolymer rings with a segregation/mixing transition
EJ Janse van Rensburg, E Orlandini, MC Tesi +1
Two ring polymers close to each other in space may be either in a segregated phase if there is a strong repulsion between monomers in the polymers, or intermingle in a mixed phase…
