Critical behavior of colloid-polymer mixtures in random porous media
R. L. C. Vink, K. Binder, H. Loewen
We show that the critical behavior of a colloid-polymer mixture inside a random porous matrix of quenched hard spheres belongs to the universality class of the random-field Ising m…
Colloid-Polymer Mixtures Confined Between Asymmetric Walls: Simulation Evidence for an Interface Localization Transition
A. De Virgiliis, R. L. C. Vink, J. Horbach +1
Phase separation of colloid-polymer mixtures, described by the Asakura-Oosawa (AO) model, confined in a thin slit pore is studied by grand-canonical Monte Carlo simulation. While o…
Phase diagram and structure of colloid-polymer mixtures confined between walls
Richard L. C. Vink, Andres De Virgiliis, Juergen Horbach +1
The influence of confinement, due to flat parallel structureless walls, on phase separation in colloid-polymer mixtures, is investigated by means of grand-canonical Monte Carlo sim…
Intramolecular phase separation of copolymer "bottle brushes": No sharp phase transition but a tunable length scale
Hsiao-Ping Hsu, Wolfgang Paul, Kurt Binder
A lattice model for a symmetrical copolymer "bottle brush" molecule, where two types (A,B) of flexible side chains are grafted with one chain end to a rigid backbone, is studied by…
Structure of Polymer Brushes in Cylindrical Tubes: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation
Dimitar I. Dimitrov, Andrey Milchev, Kurt Binder +1
Molecular Dynamics simulations of a coarse-grained bead-spring model of flexible macromolecules tethered with one end to the surface of a cylindrical pore are presented. Chain leng…
Critical behavior of a colloid-polymer mixture confined between walls
R. L. C. Vink, K. Binder, J. Horbach
We investigate the influence of confinement on phase separation in colloid-polymer mixtures. To describe the particle interactions, the colloid-polymer model of Asakura and Oosawa…
