摘要:

利用分子动力学模拟和中子自旋回波谱研究了缠结聚合物动力学的空间相关性。由于拓扑约束的软性质,纠缠链的中间散射函数的初始空间衰减,在第一近似下,令人惊讶地类似于非纠缠系统的函数形式。然而,纠缠显示自己作为一个长尾巴的倒易空间的相关性,这意味着一个弱的,但持久的动力学本地化在现实空间中。与一些现有的理论模型的纠缠聚合物的比较表明,他们不能完全描述的空间相关性所揭示的模拟和实验。特别是,严格的一维扩散的想法,原来的管模型是有缺陷的。动态空间相关分析表明,在这项工作中提供了一个有用的工具,询问纠缠聚合物的动力学。最后,失败的调查模型,甚至定性预测集体单链密度波动的空间相关性点在聚合物熔体动力学的不可压缩性可能发挥关键作用。

英文摘要:

The spatial correlations of entangled polymer dynamics are examined by molecular dynamics simulations and neutron spin-echo spectroscopy. Due to the soft nature of topological constraints, the initial spatial decays of intermediate scattering functions of entangled chains are, to the first approximation, surprisingly similar to those of an unentangled system in the functional forms. However, entanglements reveal themselves as a long tail in the reciprocal-space correlations, implying a weak but persistent dynamic localization in real space. Comparison with a number of existing theoretical models of entangled polymers suggests that they cannot fully describe the spatial correlations revealed by simulations and experiments. In particular, the strict one-dimensional diffusion idea of the original tube model is shown to be flawed. The dynamic spatial correlation analysis demonstrated in this work provides a useful tool for interrogating the dynamics of entangled polymers. Lastly, the failure of the investigated models to even qualitatively predict the spatial correlations of collective single-chain density fluctuations points to a possible critical role of incompressibility in polymer melt dynamics.
