Polymer adsorption on curved surface

Lattice model of directed self avoiding walk is used to investigate adsorption properties of a semiflexible sequential copolymer chain on an impenetrable curved surface on a hexagonal lattice in two dimensions. Walks of the copolymer chains are directed in a direction away from the surface at a suitable value of monomer surface attraction, the copolymer chain gets adsorbed on the surface. To calculate exact value of monomer surface attraction, the directed walk model have been solved analytically using generating function method to discuss results when one type monomer of the copolymer chain has attractive, repulsive or no interaction with the surface. Results obtained show that adsorption transition point is independent of bending energy of the copolymer chain.
