Plasticized poly (lactic acid)(PLA)/poly (butylene succinate)(PBS) blend-based films containing chitin nanofibrils (CN) and calcium carbonate were prepared by extrusion and …
Abstract We investigate the Johari–Goldstein (JG) β β-relaxation process in a model metallic glass-forming (GF) material (Al _ 90 Sm _ 10 Al 90 Sm 10), previously studied extensively by …

Thermodynamic, conformational, and structural properties of bottlebrush polymer melts are investigated with molecular dynamics simulations and compared to linear, regular star, and …
In this work, an experiment-based rheological model that accounts for the influence of polymer concentration, shear-thinning behavior, and temperature variation on the in-situ …

We cast the acceleration of the dynamics of coarse-grained polymer models, or, conversely, the decrease in monomer friction in terms of excess entropy differences between different …
We propose an approach to generate a wide range of randomly branched polymeric structures to gain general insights into how polymer topology encodes a configurational …
We computationally investigate the good solvent solution properties of knotted ring and star polymers by combining molecular dynamics (MD) simulation and path-integral calculations …
A series of linear and star poly (acrylic acids)(L PAA and star PAAs) were synthesized to explore the effect of molecular architecture on the stratification and polymer dynamics of …
