solutions, melts and alloys based on off-lattice Polymer Reference Interaction Site Model …

The classical concepts about unmixing of polymer blends (Flory-Huggins theory) and about
mesophase ordering in block copolymers (Leibler's theory) are briefly reviewed and their …

In the present paper, the following topics are reviewed in detail:(a) the available adhesives,
as well as their recent advances,(b) thermodynamic factors affecting the surface …

Condensed polymeric fluids exhibit a rich and complex set of experimental phenomena
associated with the combined influences of local, systemspecific monomer structure and …

A formally exact, nonlinear generalized Langevin equation (GLE) for a flexible probe
polymer in a dense melt has been derived using molecular phase space kinetic theory and …

A theoretical method for the modelling of athermal freely jointed tangent hard-sphere chain
fluids, of fixed length r, is developed based on a 'particle-particle'description of the chain …

In this chapter we review recent advances which have been achieved in the theoretical
description and understanding of polyelectrolyte solutions. We will discuss an improved …

A simple semiempirical model is presented that gives an accurate representationof the
thermo-dynamic properties for hydrogen bonding and nonspherical molecules. The model is …

Polymer RISM (reference interaction site model) theory is used to examine the intermolec-
