Chain-length-dependent correlated molecular motion in polymers
Matthew Reynolds, Daniel L. Baker, Peter D. Olmsted +1
We show how dynamic heterogeneities (DH), a hallmark of glass-forming materials, depend on chain flexibility and chain length in polymers. For highly flexible polymers, a relativel…

A fast transferable method for predicting the glass transition temperature of polymers from chemical structure
Sebastian Brierley-Croft, Peter D. Olmsted, Peter J. Hine +4
We present a new method that successfully predicts the glass transition temperature of polymers based on their monomer structure. The model combines ideas from…
