Porous polymer and copolymer membranes are useful for ultrafiltration of functional
macromolecules, colloids, and water purification. In particular, block copolymer membranes …

Process-directed self-assembly refers to processes that reproducibly trap the kinetics of
structure formation that ensues after a sudden change (“quench”) of the thermodynamic …

Block polymers have undergone extraordinary evolution since their inception more than 60
years ago, maturing from simple surfactants to an expansive class of macromolecules …

We describe a highly optimized implementation of MPI domain decomposition in a GPU-
enabled, general-purpose molecular dynamics code, HOOMD-blue (Anderson and Glotzer …

Block polymers incorporating highly incompatible segments are termed “high χ” polymers,
where χ is the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter. These materials have attracted a great …

The discovery of the Frank–Kasper σ phase in diblock copolymer and tetrablock terpolymer
melts catalyzed a renewed interest over the past decade in understanding particle-forming …

The self-assembly of block polymers into well-ordered nanostructures underpins their utility
across fundamental and applied polymer science, yet only a handful of equilibrium …

Polymer materials are multiscale systems by definition. Already the description of a single
macromolecule involves a multitude of scales, and cooperative processes in polymer …

Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is a powerful tool for the design and interpretation of
experiments on block polymer materials. In this Perspective, we lower the barrier to entry to …

The complexation of mixtures of cationic and anionic polymers to produce complex-
coacervate phases is a subject of fundamental importance to colloid and polymer science as …
