高分子动力学的单链模型

高分子单链模型是高分子稀溶液理论研究的基本模型.对其进行深入地分析,不仅有助于解决高分子稀溶液体系中溶液黏度和分子链扩散等基本问题,而且能够增进人们对高分子链结构与溶液性质间关联性的理解.虽然基于经典连续性介质力学的流体动力学理论可以定性,甚至半定量地获得稀溶液的一些重要性质,但是,随着科学技术的发展,人们从分子水平上建立了许多描述高分子稀溶液性质的模型和理论,期望能够定量地描述高分子稀溶液的性质.本文以高分子稀溶液中3个典型的单链模型为例(包括:不含流体力学相互作用的Rouse模型、含二体流体力学相互作用的Zimm模型和含多体流体力学相互作用的部分穿透球模型),综述高分子稀溶液的重要性质,并详细地给出其动力学方程的推导过程及其重要的研究进展.特别是,对于Rouse模型,本文还将其预言结果拓展到了短链高分子流体体系;此外,还介绍了这一领域的关键科学问题、发展前景和研究方向.

本文采用多粒子碰撞动力学与分子动力学耦合的模拟方法研究了环形高分子单链在良溶剂中的静态与动态性质,并与线形分子进行了对比.研究发现,环形高分子链内粒子之间的平均距离小于线形链,即粒子排列得更加紧密;相应的均方回转半径也小于线形链,线形链与环形链的均方回转半径的比值为1.77;同时,环形链扩散的速度也比线形链快,两者比值为1.10.模拟结果揭示了扩散行为是排斥体积作用和流体力学相互作用耦合的结果,在扩散过程中,流体力学相互作用消减了排斥体积作用对扩散行为的贡献.此外,通过对有和没有流体力学相互作用的多粒子碰撞动力学得到的结果作对比,研究了流体力学相互作用对高分子静态和动态行为的影响,结果表明,流体力学相互作用使高分子链在极稀溶液中的扩散速度变快.

DYNAMIC LIGHT SCATTERING STUDY ON TRANSLATION DIFFUSION OF 8-ARM STAR POLYSTYRENE IN GOOD AND THETA SOLVENTS

The technique of dynamic light scattering has been used to investigate the translation diffusion behavior of 8-arm star polystyrene (SPS)in a good solvent, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or benzene (BZ) and a theta solvent, cyclohexane (CH), by homodyne photon correlation spectroscopy .The intensityintensity autocorrelation function was analyzed by the method of cumulant.

Interdiffusion of solvent into glassy polymer films: a molecular dynamics study

Large scale molecular dynamics and grand canonical Monte Carlo simulation techniques are used to study the behavior of the interdiffusion of a solvent into an entangled polymer matrix as the state of the polymer changes from a melt to a glass. The weight gain by the polymer increases with time t as t(1/2) in agreement with Fickian diffusion for all cases studied, although the diffusivity is found to be strongly concentration dependent especially as one approaches the glass transition temperature of the polymer. The diffusivity as a function of solvent concentration determined using the one-dimensional Fick's model of the diffusion equation is compared to the diffusivity calculated using the Darken equation from simulations of equilibrated solvent-polymer solutions. The diffusivity calculated using these two different approaches are in good agreement. The behavior of the diffusivity strongly depends on the state of the polymer and is related to the shape of the solvent concentration profile.     

Molecular dynamics simulation of solvent-polymer interdiffusion: Fickian diffusion

The interdiffusion of a solvent into a polymer melt has been studied using large scale molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulation techniques. The solvent concentration profile and weight gain by the polymer have been measured as a function of time. The weight gain is found to scale as t(1/2), which is expected for Fickian diffusion. The concentration profiles are fit very well assuming Fick's second law with a constant diffusivity. The diffusivity found from fitting Fick's second law is found to be independent of time and equal to the self-diffusion constant in the dilute solvent limit. We separately calculated the diffusivity as a function of concentration using the Darken equation and found that the diffusivity is essentially constant for the concentration range relevant for interdiffusion.     

Mass transport in a chiral nematic/nematic liquid crystal system

The optical microscopic mass transport technique has been used to study diffusion phenomenon in a chiral nematic/nematic solute/solvent mixture. Analysis of the concentration-distance, concentration-time and distance-time of the diffusion profile gave the diffusion coefficient of the system as a function of time, distance and concentration, respectively. The mutual diffusion coefficient of the system was independent of the distance and time, showing an average value of 2.65 × 10^-7 cm² s^-1. In non-steady state diffusion, the diffusion coefficient was dependent on both distance and time. The diffusion coefficient exhibited an inverse relation with the local concentration of the chiral solute. The self-diffusion coefficient of the nematic solvent gave a value of 3.4 × 10^-7 cm² s^-1 via extrapolation to zero concentration of the solute.     

Application of free‐volume theory to self diffusion of solvents in polymers below the glass transition temperature: A review

Theories based on free‐volume concepts have been developed to characterize the self and mutual‐diffusion coefficients of low molecular weight penetrants in rubbery and glassy polymer‐solvent systems. These theories are applicable over wide ranges of temperature and concentration. The capability of free‐volume theory to describe solvent diffusion in glassy polymers is reviewed in this article. Two alternative free‐volume based approaches used to evaluate solvent self‐diffusion coefficients in glassy polymer‐solvent systems are compared in terms of their differences and applicability. The models can correlate/predict temperature and concentration dependencies of the solvent diffusion coefficient. With the appropriate accompanying thermodynamic factors they can be used to model concentration profiles in mutual diffusion processes that are Fickian such as drying of coatings. The free‐volume methodology has been found to be consistent with molecular dynamics simulations. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys, 2011     

Diffusion phenomena in ternary systems polymer-nonsolvent-solvent

Diffusion in a boundary between a polymer+solvent solution and non-solvent was treated by accounting for the presence of the four diffusion coefficients that describe the isothermal transport process in a three component system. Diffusion equations were integrated assuming a concentration dependence of diffusion coefficients that account for the thermodynamic conditions on the cross diffusion terms of Eq. (1). The presence of non-zero cross terms promotes an incongruent diffusion of polymer whose concentration increases at the boundary between the polymer+solvent solution and the non-solvent. Although our model describes diffusion in the range of homogeneous solution, this incongruent polymer diffusion is a process similar to that promoted by the solvent evaporation from the polymer+solvent film that some authors suggested as an intermediate step before the film immersion into the coagulation bath to obtain good asymmetric membranes.     

Measurement of the infinite dilution diffusion coefficients of small molecule solvents in silicone rubber by inverse gas chromatography

The infinite dilution diffusion coefficients of n-hexane, n-heptane and n-decane in crosslinked silicone rubber with different crosslinking agent concentrations were measured in the temperature range of 348.15 K-368.15 K by inverse gas chromatography. The crosslinked silicone rubber was obtained by dissolving PDMS prepolymer, crosslinking agent and catalyst in n-heptane solvent and characterized by FTIR spectra. The Van Deemter equation was used to determine diffusion coefficients from the variation in chromatographic peak width with carrier gas flow rate. The good linear relation indicated the Van Deemter equation used in this work was reliable. The influences of small molecule solvent, crosslinking agent concentration and temperature on the infinite dilution diffusion coefficient were investigated. The results showed that the infinite dilution diffusion coefficient decreased with an increasing number of CH₂ group in the alkane series. The increase in crosslinking agent concentration resulted in decrease of the infinite dilution diffusion coefficient. The infinite dilution diffusion coefficient increased with the rising of temperature. The interdependence on the infinite dilution diffusion coefficient and temperature accorded with Arrhenius equation well. Diffusion constant and activation energy obtained from the Arrhenius equation provided straight lines with the specific critical volume and crosslinking agent concentration.     

Diffusion transport of sucrose, ß-alanine and bovine serum albumin in aqueous solutions of hydroxypropyl cellulose

Diffusion of sucrose, ß-alanine and bovine serum albumin has been studied in moderately concentrated aqueous solutions of hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), both at 25° (good solvent conditions) and at 36° (approaching theta solvent conditions). For sucrose, the diffusion rate is almost independent of the concentration of HPC. For the two other diffusants, the diffusion rate decreases significantly when the concentration of HPC is increased; the decrease is more pronounced at 36° than at 25°. The results are discussed qualitatively in the light of recent theoretical models.
