Polymer熔体中的动态阻滞:堆积和分子内势垒的竞争

Dynamic Arrest in Polymer Melts: Competition between Packing and Intramolecular Barriers

Marco Bernabei, Angel J. Moreno, Juan Colmenero

摘要:

我们提出了分子动力学模拟的一个简单的模型,聚合物熔体的分子内障碍。我们调查的势垒强度的函数的结构弛豫。动态相变可以在玻璃化转变的模式耦合理论(MCT)的框架内进行一致的分析。控制参数进行调整,以诱导一般的包装效果和聚合物的特定的分子内障碍之间的竞争,作为动态逮捕的机制。这种竞争产生异常大的值的所谓的MCT指数参数和合理化定性不同的观察简单的珠弹簧和现实的聚合物。这里提出的分子内障碍的影响的系统研究也建立了聚合物和简单的玻璃形成的玻璃化转变的性质之间的根本区别。

英文摘要:

We present molecular dynamics simulations of a simple model for polymer melts with intramolecular barriers. We investigate structural relaxation as a function of the barrier strength. Dynamic correlators can be consistently analyzed within the framework of the Mode Coupling Theory (MCT) of the glass transition. Control parameters are tuned in order to induce a competition between general packing effects and polymer-specific intramolecular barriers as mechanisms for dynamic arrest. This competition yields unusually large values of the so-called MCT exponent parameter and rationalize qualitatively different observations for simple bead-spring and realistic polymers. The systematic study of the effect of intramolecular barriers presented here also establishes a fundamental difference between the nature of the glass transition in polymers and in simple glass-formers.
