Phys. 121, 612 (2004) DOI: 10.1063/1.1756571 | Subject: | Soft Condensed Matter; Materials Science | cond-mat.soft cond-mat.mtrl-sci | Abstract: | The effect of solvent quality on dilute and semi-dilute regimes of polymers in solution is studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The equation of state, adsorptions near a hard wall, wall-polymer surface tension and effective depletion potentials are all calculated as a function of concentration and solvent quality. We find important differences between polymers in good and theta solvents. In the dilute regime, the physical properties for polymers in a theta solvent closely resemble those of ideal polymers. In the semi-dilute regime, however, significant differences are found. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0403102 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
