We assess the validity of a range models glass formation based on molecular dynamics simulation results Kob-Andersen (KA) model system under wide constant volume and pressure conditions. These include Adam-Gibbs emphasizing configurational entropy, string collective particle exchange motion, shoving material elasticity, localization dynamical free volume, parabolic ideas dynamic facilitation and, alternatively, hypothesis that involves an avoided critical point. demonstrate these seemingly disparate all provide reasonable description structural relaxation diffusion data for KA conditions considered. Hence, present study points to some unity in our understanding relationship between leading formation, supporting inferences drawn from previous studies polymeric glass-forming liquids.

The knowledge of molecular dynamics induced by noncovalent bonding is important for the fabrication high-performance polymeric materials. However, little attention paid to segmental triggered π–π stacking interactions and fluorinated polar interactions. Here, complicated effects rigidity intermolecular interaction on dynamic fragility m glass transition temperature Tg are systematically investigated in acrylic networks. It found that structures have minor due their relatively weak strength, whereas increases with growth after introduction rigid aromatic structures. In contrast, further addition hindered phenols or metallic ions leads an increased while reduced. Based generalized entropy theory (GET) formation, it can be concluded polymers but strength tend fragile almost constant cohesive energy densities. Although hydrogen ionic act as transient cross-linkers, densities also increase because high polarities, thus leading decreased fragilities. These results not only help clarify relationship between formation provide fundamental experimental benefits verifying predictions GET simulations glass-forming polymer

We investigate with numerical simulations the influence of topology and stiffness on macroscopic rheological properties polymer melts consisting unknotted, knotted, or concatenated rings. While flexible, knotted oligomer rings tend to be significantly more viscous than their unknotted counterparts, differences vanish in a low shear rate scenario increasing degree polymerization. Melts catenanes two other hand are consistently unconcatenated counterparts. These topology-based can exploited segregate mixtures otherwise chemically similar polymers, e.g., microfluidic devices, which is demonstrated by exposing blend flexible channel flow.
