摘要:

采用分子动力学模拟研究了非级联环状聚合物熔体的结构性质,并与线性聚合物熔体进行了比较。最长的环由N=1600个单体/链组成,这对应于可比较的线性聚合物的大约57个缠结长度。对于环,发现回转半径的平方与N的4/5次方成比例,对于中间状态,与N的2/3次方成比例,对于较大的环,表明整体构象为褶皱的小球。然而,几乎所有的环珠是“表面珠”与其他环珠相互作用,结果也与以下论文(DOI:10.1063/1.3587138)中进行的原始路径分析一致。详细的环和线性聚合物以及它们的包装的内部构象特性进行了分析,并与目前的理论模型。

英文摘要:

Molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to investigate the structural properties of melts of nonconcatenated ring polymers and compared to melts of linear polymers. The longest rings were composed of N=1600 monomers per chain which corresponds to roughly 57 entanglement lengths for comparable linear polymers. For the rings, the radius of gyration squared was found to scale as N to the 4/5 power for an intermediate regime and N to the 2/3 power for the larger rings indicating an overall conformation of a crumpled globule. However, almost all beads of the rings are "surface beads" interacting with beads of other rings, a result also in agreement with a primitive path analysis performed in the following paper (DOI: 10.1063/1.3587138). Details of the internal conformational properties of the ring and linear polymers as well as their packing are analyzed and compared to current theoretical models.
