Static and Dynamic Properties of a n-C100H202 Melt from Molecular Dynamics Simulations
1997
We present in this work results from atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of a n-C100H202 melt. This work represents a first effort to simulate a fully equilibrated ensemble of chains of suffic...

Phase behaviour and interfacial tension of polysiloxane blends
1998
Abstract The cloud point curve for blends of poly(dimethyisiloxane) (PDMS, M w = 2.5kg mol −1 ) and poly(hexylmethylsiloxane) (PHMS, M w = 113kg mol − ] was determined turbidimetrically. The system demixes upon cooling and the UCST amounts to 36°C. The interfacial tension γ was determined at the critical composition for three temperatures by means of a spinning drop tensiometer. The dependence of γ on the reduced critical temperature can be described within experimental error by both the mean field theory and the Ising-3D theory.
Shear viscosity of polybutyleneterephthalate/liquid crystal polymer blends
1989
Viscosity measurements have been carried out on blends of polybuty-leneterephthalate (PBT) and a liquid crystalline copolyesteramide (LCP). The flow curves of the blends with LCP content larger than 20%, show a behavior similar to that of the pure LCP, with a rapid rise of the viscosity at low shear rates. The viscosity-composition curves exhibit a deep minimum at low LCP content which may be mainly attributed to the lack of interactions between the two phases.
1997
We have determined by forced Rayleigh scattering the diffusion coefficients of photo-labeled polystyrene micronetwork spheres (radii ≤ 10 nm) in melts of linear polyvinylmethylether (M W ≤ 40000 g/mol) at temperatures of 20-80°C. An expected slippage of the spheres through the meshes of the entanglement network appears possible but is still within the experimental uncertainty of our results.
THE MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY OF MOLTEN NICKEL(II) COMPLEXES
1957
Abstract The bis-( N -alkylsalicylaldimine) - nickel (II) complexes, which are diamagnetic in the solid state, become paramagnetic with moments ranging from 0.8 to 1.15 B.M. in the molten state.
Influence of processing conditions on rheological and mechanical properties of polycarbonate/polypropylene blends
1987
Abstract Rheological and mechanical data on polycarbonate/polypropylene blends are reported as a function of the blend preparation. Both kinds of properties depend on the properties of the homopolymers and on the processing conditions. In the molten state the blends are compatible at low content of polypropylene and incompatible at high content. The blends with intermediate compositions can be called semicompatible. Also in the solid state the blends with low content of polypropylene are compatible, while all other blends are incompatible.
Dynamics of Copolymer Micelles in a Homopolymer Melt: Influence of the Matrix Molecular Weight
2000
We have studied the dynamics of styrene−isoprene (SI) block copolymer micelles in a matrix of linear entangled polyisoprene (PI) chains, using forced Rayleigh scattering (FRS) and dynamic mechanica...
Monte Carlo simulation of polymers at interfaces
1993
Abstract Polymers at interfaces pose challenging problems to statistical physics because their configurations often differ greatly from the bulk. Computer simulation of coarse-grained models then gives valuable insight and allows stringent tests of various theoretical predictions. Three examples are briefly treated: chain configurations of B-chains in the surface-enriched B-rich layer of an (AB) binary polymer mixture; “frustrated” lamellar ordering in ultra-thin block-copolymer films; and the collapse of polymer brushes in bad solvents.
