The effects of the chain structure and the intramolecular interaction energy of an A/B copolymer on the miscibility of the binary blends of the copolymer and homopolymer C have been studied by means of a Monte Carlo simulation. In the system, the interactions between segments A, B and C are more repulsive than those between themselves. In order to study the effect of the chain structure of the A/B copolymer on the miscibility, the alternating, random and block copolymers were introduced in the simulations, respectively. The simulation results show that the miscibility of the binary blends strongly depends on the intramolecular interaction energy () between segments A and B within the A/B copolymers. The higher the repulsive interaction energy, the more miscible the A/B copolymer and homopolymer C are. For the diblock copolymer/homopolymer blends, they tend to form micro phase domains. However, the phase domains become so small that the blend can be considered as a homogeneous phase for the alternating copolymer/homopolymer blends. Furthermore, the investigation of the average end-to-end distance () in different systems indicates that the copolymer chains tend to coil with the decrease of whereas the of the homopolymer chains depends on the chain structure of the copolymers. As for the system containing the alternating or the random copolymers, the homopolymer chains also tend to coil with the decrease of . However, for the systems including the block copolymers, there is a slight difference in the of the homopolymer chains with the variation of . 相似文献

Monte Carlo simulation of the structure of mono- and bidisperse polyethylene nanocomposites 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The structure of bidisperse polyethylene(PE) nanocomposite mixtures of 50:50(by mole) of long and short chains of C160H322/C80H162 and C160H322/C40H82 filled with spherical nanoparticles were investigated by a coarse-grained, on lattice Monte Carlo method using rotational isomeric state theory for short-range and Lennard-Jones for long-range energetic interactions. Simulations were performed to evaluate the effect of wall-to-wall distance between fillers(D), polymer-filler interaction(w) and polydispersity(number of short chains in the mixture) on the behavior of the long PE chains. The results indicate that long chain conformation statistics remain Gaussian regardless of the effects of confinement, interaction strength and polydispersity. The various long PE subchain structures(bridges, dangling ends, trains, and loops) are influenced strongly by confinement whereas monomer-filler interaction and polydispersity did not have any impact. In addition, the average number of subchain segments per filler in bidisperse PE nanocomposites decreased by about 50% compared to the nanocomposite system with monodisperse PE chains. The presence of short PE chains in the polymer matrix leads to a reduction of the repeat unit density of long PE chains at the interface suggesting that the interface is preferentially populated by short chains. 相似文献

Algorithm and application of Monte Carlo simulation for multi-dispersive copolymerization system 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A Monte Carlo algorithm has been established for multi-dispersive copolymerization system, based on the experimental data of copolymer molecular weight and dispersion via GPC measurement. The program simulates the insertion of every monomer unit and records the structure and microscopical sequence of every chain in various lengths. It has been applied successfully for the ring-opening copolymerization of 2,2-dimethyltrimethylene carbonate (DTC) with δ-caprolactone (δ-CL). The simulation coincides with the experimental results and provides microscopical data of triad fractions, lengths of homopolymer segments, etc., which are difficult to obtain by experiments. The algorithm presents also a uniform frame for copolymerization studies under other complicated mechanisms. 相似文献

Thin films of polymer blends composed of alternating copolymer, diblock copolymer and/or homopolymer are studied using Monte Carlo simulation. A multilayer morphology is observed in the film, that is, the blended polymers assemble into individual domains arranged from interior to the surfaces of the film. The coexisting components residing throughout the neighboring domains in the film make no distinguishable interface between any neighboring domains. By this means, it forms a vertical composition gradient in the polymeric film. Being different from layer-by-layer deposition of polyelectrolyte or hydrogen bonding approach etc., the layered structure in this study is formed by polymer blending in one step. Alternating copolymers are found to be essential components to form vertical composition gradient (layered structure) in thin films. 相似文献

The pair distribution functions (DFs) of the oxygen and hydrogen atoms over space around one of the water molecules were calculated during Monte Carlo simulation (Metropolis procedure for the NVT ensemble at normal density and 300 K). An analysis of the isosurfaces of the DFOO and DFOH constructed around the selected water molecule for several fixed values of local density allowed us to obtain detailed information about the most probable localization of water molecules in the second and third coordination spheres. 相似文献

An early rejection scheme for trial moves in adiabatic nuclear and electronic sampling Monte Carlo simulation (ANES-MC) of polarizable intermolecular potential models is presented. The proposed algorithm is based on Swendsen–Wang filter functions for prediction of success or failure of trial moves in Monte Carlo simulations. The goal was to reduce the amount of calculations involved in ANES-MC electronic moves, by foreseeing the success of an attempt before making those moves. The new method was employed in Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo (GEMC) simulations of the polarizable simple point charge-fluctuating charge (SPC-FQ) model of water. The overall improvement in GEMC depends on the number of swap attempts (transfer molecules between phases) in one Monte Carlo cycle. The proposed method allows this number to increase, enhancing the chemical potential equalization. For a system with 300 SPC-FQ water molecules, for example, the fractions of early rejected transfers were about 0.9998 and 0.9994 at 373 and 423 K, respectively. This means that the transfer moves consume only a very small part of the overall computing effort, making GEMC almost equivalent to a simulation in the canonical ensemble. 相似文献

Monte Carlo simulation studies of statistical perturbation theory (SPT) have been carried out to investigate the solvent effects on the relative free energies of solvation and the difference in partition coefficients (log P) for K+ to Na+ ion mutation in the several solvents. We compared the relative free energies for interconversion of K+ to Na+, in H2O (TIP4P) in this study with those published works, that in H2O (TIP4P) is −16.55 kcal/mol in this study, those of the published works are −17.6, −17.3 and −17.31 kcal/mol and that of the experiment is −17.6 kcal/mol, respectively. Comparing the relative free energies for interconversion of K+ to Na+, in CH3OH in this study with those published works, that in CH3OH is −18.08±0.28 kcal/mol in this study, that of molecular dynamic simulation is −19.6±0.4 kcal/mol and that of the experimental work is −17.3 kcal/mol, respectively. There is good agreement among the several studies if we consider both methods of obtaining the solvation (or hydration) free energies and the standard deviations. For the present K+ and Na+ ions, the relative free energies of solvation vs Born's function of solvents are decreased with increasing Born's function of solvent except for CH3OH, THF and MEOME. There is also good agreement between the calculated structural properties in this study and the computer simulation, ab initio and experimental works. 相似文献

Positron backscattering coefficients are analytically calculated and numerically simulated for an Al target in the positron energy range 0.50–4 keV and for incident angles between 0° and 80° . The differential elastic scattering cross section has been obtained using the Bentabet and Bouarissa approximation (Phys. Lett. 2006; A 355: 390). Both the analytical and simulated results show good agreement with the experiment and previous theoretical work. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

The diffusion effects on chain‐extension reactions using carboxyl‐terminated polyamide‐12 as a model reactant with bisoxazolines were investigated by the stochastic Monte Carlo method. Thus, complicated direct modeling and numerical calculations were avoided. The chain‐length dependence and detailed diffusive behavior were discussed in depth. The diffusion effects retarded the progress of chain‐extension reactions and led to lower coupling efficiency. The simulated results indicated that the diffusion effects could make the final molecular weight distributions wider. In the presence of diffusion and with the progress of the coupling efficiency, peaks in the evolution curves of the weight‐average molecular weight and valleys in the evolution curves of the polydispersity index were observed, respectively, when the coupling efficiency was low enough. These phenomena were different from those without diffusion effects and were analyzed in detail. The critical entanglement chain length had strong effects on the simulated results of the diffusion effects, especially when its value was near the average chain length. The results also showed that the effects of the reactant degradation made the molecular weight distribution of the reaction system wider and weakened the diffusion effects on the coupling reaction. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The morphologies of AB diblock copolymer film between the substrate and surface were investigated via Monte Carlo simulations on simple cubic lattices. The morphological dependence of the diblock copolymer thin film on the thickness, as well as the composition and interactive intensity has been mainly studied. With the increase of A‐segments fraction, various microdomain morphologies including regular parallel stripe‐like, mesh‐like, and normal lamella near the region of the surface were generated in this work. The morphology of thin films of asymmetric diblock copolymer was found to form cylinders in a bulk system when Lz was equal to 30. The morphologies of PS‐b‐PDMS diblock copolymer films have been studied via atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transition electron microscopy (TEM) measurements. The surface morphology of the PS‐b‐PDMS copolymer thin film shows a mesh‐like microphase separated structure, and PDMS continuous phase protruded on the PS dispersed phase. The surface composition of PS‐b‐PDMS copolymer thin films was measured by means of X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ATR‐IR. The comparison results show that the experimental observations are in good agreement with the simulation results. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Determination of the shortest distances between particles is one of the most time-consuming parts of molecular simulation by the Monte Carlo method. In this work, we demonstrate that the use of signed-integer storage of coordinates in a scaled box allows one to skip multiple conditional statements in realization of periodic boundary conditions in cubic and rectangular boxes, which, in turn, increases the performance. Performance of the improved procedure was tested in NVT Monte Carlo simulations for liquid krypton and water. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

We present a new software framework for Markov chain Monte Carlo sampling for simulation, prediction, and inference of protein structure. The software package contains implementations of recent advances in Monte Carlo methodology, such as efficient local updates and sampling from probabilistic models of local protein structure. These models form a probabilistic alternative to the widely used fragment and rotamer libraries. Combined with an easily extendible software architecture, this makes PHAISTOS well suited for Bayesian inference of protein structure from sequence and/or experimental data. Currently, two force‐fields are available within the framework: PROFASI and OPLS‐AA/L, the latter including the generalized Born surface area solvent model. A flexible command‐line and configuration‐file interface allows users quickly to set up simulations with the desired configuration. PHAISTOS is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0. Source code and documentation are freely available from http://phaistos.sourceforge.net . The software is implemented in C++ and has been tested on Linux and OSX platforms. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

计算机模拟了高分子链对表面活性剂胶束形成过程的影响,以及高分子链构象性质随胶束化过程的变化.结果表明,当高分子链与表面活性剂之间的相互作用强度超过临界值后,高分子链的存在有利于表面活性剂胶束的形成.临界聚集浓度(CAC)与临界胶束浓度(CMC)的比值CAC/CMC随高分子链长的增大和相互吸引作用的增强而减小.在CAC之前,高分子链与表面活性剂分子只有动态的聚集;但在CAC之后,表面活性剂胶束随表面活性剂浓度X的增加而增大,并静态地吸附在高分子链上,形成表面活性剂/高分子聚集体.随着表面活性剂分子的加入,高分子链的均方末端距和平均非球形因子先保持恒定;从X略小于CAC开始, 和快速减小,至极小值后又逐渐增大.模拟结果支持高分子链包裹在胶束表面的实验模型. 相似文献

The diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) method shows that correlation in H2 produces a set of three spatial changes: (i) an enhancement in the electron density distribution n( r ) in the left and right anti‐binding regions that include separately the immediate vicinity of each of the two nuclei, (ii) a reduction in n( r ) in the binding region intervening between the two nuclei as a counterbalance, and (iii) a concomitant increase in the equilibrium internuclear separation. It is stressed that the correlation energy Ec (= Tc + Vc) for diatomic molecules be defined by the difference in the total energy between the exact and the Hartree–Fock (HF) variational calculations that are performed at individually optimized internuclear separations. It is this definition that makes it possible to involve a significant contribution from a correlation‐induced change in the equilibrium internuclear separation as part of the correlation energy and to relate (i) and (ii) to (iii) in consistency with the electrostatic theorem. The present calculations fulfill the virial theorem to an accuracy of ?V/T = 2.00 for DMC and ?VHF/THF = 2.000 for HF. The present correlation energy Ec = ?0.0408 hartree is not only in good agreement with the most accurate value previously reported, but also can be analyzed into all its components in accordance with the correlational virial theorem 2Tc + Vc = 0. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Summary Monte Carlo computer simulation is described for the hexamer d(CGCGCG) in the Z form together with 910 water molecules at an environmental density of 1 gm/cc in a cubic cell under periodic boundary conditions. Water-water interactions were treated using the TIP4P potential and the solute water interactions by TIP4P spliced with the non-bonded interactions from the AMBER 3.0 force field. The simulation was subjected to proximity analysis to obtain solute coordination numbers and pair interaction energies for each solute atom. Hydration density distributions partitioned into contributions from the major groove, the minor groove, and the sugar-phosphate backbone were examined, and the probabilities of occurrence for one- and two-water bridges in the simulation were enumerated. The results are compared with observations of crystallographic ordered water sites from the X-ray diffraction studies. 相似文献
