Statics and Dynamics of Colloid-Polymer Mixtures Near Their Critical Point of Phase Separation: A Computer Simulation Study of a Continuous AO Model
Jochen Zausch, Peter Virnau, Kurt Binder +2
We propose a new coarse-grained model for the description of liquid-vapor phase separation of colloid-polymer mixtures. The hard-sphere repulsion between colloids and between collo…
Kinetics of Phase Separation in Thin Films: Lattice versus Continuum Models for Solid Binary Mixtures
Subir K. Das, Jürgen Horbach, Kurt Binder
A description of phase separation kinetics for solid binary (A,B) mixtures in thin film geometry based on the Kawasaki spin-exchange kinetic Ising model is presented in a discrete…
Escape transition of a polymer chain from a nanotube: how to avoid spurious results by use of the force-biased pruned-enriched Rosenbluth algorithm
Hsiao-Ping Hsu, Kurt Binder, Leonid I. Klushin +1
A polymer chain containing monomers confined in a finite cylindrical tube of diameter grafted at a distance from the open end of the tube may undergo a rather abrupt tr…
Structure of bottle-brush polymers in solution: A Monte Carlo test of models for the scattering function
Hsiao-Ping Hsu, Wolfgang Paul, Kurt Binder
Extensive Monte Carlo results are presented for a lattice model of a bottle-brush polymer under good solvent or Theta solvent conditions. Varying the side chain length, backbone le…
From Capillary Condensation to Interface Localization Transitions in Colloid Polymer Mixtures Confined in Thin Film Geometry
Andres De Virgiliis, Richard L. C. Vink, Jürgen Horbach +1
Monte Carlo simulations of the Asakura-Oosawa (AO) model for colloid-polymer mixtures confined between two parallel repulsive structureless walls are presented and analyzed in the…
Evidence of thin-film precursors formation in hydrokinetic and atomistic simulations of nano-channel capillary filling
S. Chibbaro, L. Biferale, F. Diotallevi +6
We present hydrokinetic Lattice Boltzmann and Molecular Dynamics simulations of capillary filling of high-wetting fluids in nano-channels, which provide clear evidence of the forma…
