Elasticity dominated surface segregation of small molecules in polymer mixtures
Jaroslaw Krawczyk, Salvatore Croce, T. C. B. McLeish +1
We study the phenomenon of migration of the small molecular weight component of a binary polymer mixture to the free surface using mean field and self-consistent field theories. By…
A semi-flexible attracting-segment model of three-dimensional polymer collapse
J. Krawczyk, A. L. Owczarek, T. Prellberg
Recently it has been shown that a two-dimensional model of self-attracting polymers based on attracting segments with the addition of stiffness displays three phases: a swollen pha…
Pulling self-interacting polymers in two-dimensions
J. Krawczyk, I. Jensen, A. L. Owczarek +1
We investigate a two-dimensional problem of an isolated self-interacting end-grafted polymer, pulled by one end. In the thermodynamic limit, we find that the model has only two dif…
Polymers with self-attraction and stiffness: a generic phase structure
J. Krawczyk, A. L. Owczarek, T. Prellberg
Recently it has been shown that a two-dimensional model of self-attracting polymers based on attracting segments displays two phase transitions, a theta-like collapse between swoll…
Semi-flexible hydrogen-bonded and non-hydrogen bonded lattice polymers
J Krawczyk, AL Owczarek, T Prellberg
We investigate the addition of stiffness to the lattice model of hydrogen-bonded polymers in two and three dimensions. We find that, in contrast to polymers that interact via a hom…
On the location of the surface-attached globule phase in collapsing polymers
A. L. Owczarek, A. Rechnitzer, J. Krawczyk +1
We investigate the existence and location of the surface phase known as the "Surface-Attached Globule" (SAG) conjectured previously to exist in lattice models of three-dimensional…
