We present the derivation of coarse-grained force fields for two types of polymers, polyethylene (PE), and cis-polybutadiene (cis-PB), using the concept of potential of mean force. Coarse-grained force fields were obtained from microscopic simulations for several coarse-graining levels, i.e.,...

The article examines the structure of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) whose mechanical properties are close to the theoretical values. The shape of the longitudinal acoustic mode band reflects the distribution function of the straightened chain segments by lengths F(L). Three...

A coarse-grained (CG) model of polyethylene glycol (PEG) was developed and implemented in CG molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of PEG chains with degree of polymerization (DP) 20 and 40. In the model, two repeat units of PEG are grouped as one CG bead. Atomistic MD simulation of PEG chains...

The effect of hollow glass microspheres with a density of 125 kg/m on the properties of low-density (54-90 kg/m) rigid polyurethane foams is investigated. The thermal expansion coefficient of the foams and their properties in tension and compression in relation to the content of the microspheres...

Coarse-grained models of poly(ethylene oxide) oligomer-grafted nanoparticles are established by matching their structural distribution functions to atomistic simulation data. Coarse-grained force fields for bulk oligomer chains show excellent transferability with respect to chain lengths and...

The slip behavior of several high-density polyethylenes (HDPEs) is studied as a function of molecular weight (Mw) and its distribution for moderate to broad molecular weight distribution resins. It is found that slip depends strongly on Mw and its distribution. The slip velocity increases with...

In a disordered system of N particles, the probability of finding any neighbor at a given distance from a reference particle is described by the radial distribution function G(r). In many instances it would also be useful to know the distribution functions P(1,r),P(2,r),...,P(n,r) corresponding...
