Study of polymer solvent interactions of complex polysiloxanes using dissipative particle dynamics
Javier Vallejo-Montesinos, Antonio Villegas, Jorge Cervantes +2
The mesoscopic modeling of three polysiloxanes in solution is reported in this work, with the purpose of predicting their physicochemical properties as functions of the quality of…

Friction coefficient and viscosity of polymer brushes with and without free polymers as slip agents
A. Gama Goicochea, R. López-Esparza, M. A. Balderas Altamirano +3
There is ample evidence that polymer brushes reduce friction between surfaces. Several industrial applications take advantage of this fact, such as those in plastic bag production,…

Scaling law of the disjoining pressure reveals two dimensional structure of polymeric fluids
Armando Gama Goicochea, Elías Pérez
A scaling relation for the disjoining pressure of strongly confined polymer fluids is proposed for the first time, which yields directly the scaling exponent, nu, of the radius of…
