Abstract: | In this study, we investigated the process of random sequential adsorption of stiff and flexible polymer chains on a two-dimensional square lattice. The polymer chains were represented by sequence of lattice points forming needles, T shapes, and crosses as well as flexible linear chains and star-branched chains consisted of three and four arms. The Monte Carlo method was employed to generate the model systems. The percolation threshold and the jamming threshold were determined for all systems under consideration. The influence of the chain length and the chain architecture on both thresholds was calculated and discussed. The changes in the ordering of the system were also studied. |
