Abstract

Examines the conformational properties of linear polymer brushes. Usage of the Monte Carlo method and molecular dynamics simulations in conformational property description; Focus on the isotropic-nematic phase transitions from collapsed to strongly stretched regimes of the brushes; Impact of orientational interactions on the isotropic temperature.
