AI总结:

本文通过分子动力学模拟研究不同拓扑结构真实环形聚合物链在混合边界条件狭缝中对壁面施加的熵力,结果与理想环形聚合物解析结果定性一致,并指出其在材料工程、生物过程及MEMS/NEMS减摩中的潜在应用。

摘要:

采用分子动力学模拟获得了由360个单体组成、具有不同拓扑结构的真实环形聚合物链的回转半径。我们重点研究在良溶剂中具有排除体积相互作用(EVI)的不同拓扑结构环形聚合物链稀溶液对狭缝几何结构约束平行壁所施加的熵力。我们考虑一个壁为排斥壁、另一个壁处于吸附阈值的混合边界条件。在宽狭缝区域获得的分子动力学模拟结果与先前针对理想环形聚合物的解析结果在定性上一致。这些结果可能在材料工程中带来有意义的潜在应用,并有助于理解论文中所提出的一些生物过程。此外,它们还可应用于微机电系统和纳机电系统(MEMS和NEMS),以降低静摩擦。

英文摘要:

The molecular dynamics simulations were used to obtain the radius of gyration of real ring polymer chains with different topological structures consisting of 360 monomers. We focus on the entropic force which is exerted by a dilute solution of ring polymer chains of different topological structures with the excluded volume interaction (EVI) in a good solvent on the confining parallel walls of a slit geometry. We consider mixed boundary conditions of one repulsive wall and the other one at the adsorption threshold. The obtained molecular dynamics simulation results for a wide slit region demonstrate a qualitative agreement with previous analytical results for ideal ring polymers. These results could lead to interesting potential applications in materials engineering and improve understanding of some biological processes suggested in the paper. Additionally, they could be applied in micro- and nano-electromechanical devices (MEMS and NEMS) in order to reduce the static friction.
