Molecular insights into conformational and structural properties of diblock copolymer nanoparticles: a high-resolution RIS-based Monte Carlo study on a high-coordination lattice
The multilevel assembly of conjugated polymers critically determines their electronic performance. However, establishing a direct correlation from molecular-level interactions to macroscopic morphology and charge transport properties remains challenging. In this work, advanced characterization techniques were employe...

Melt memory in semicrystalline polymers is the remarkable ability of polymer chains to retain structural information from a prior crystalline state after being heated above the melting temperature. This phenomenon can induce extraordinary self-nucleation and strongly influence crystallization kinetics and final materia...

The microscopic structure, interfacial energetics, and localized transport kinetics of natural rubber (NR) and nylon 6,6 (NY) matrices close to bare, hydroxylated (–OH), and carboxylated (–COOH) carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were examined using molecular dynamics simulations (MD). Surface functionalization significantly modi...

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of silica (SiO2) crystallization remain challenging due to high energy barriers that frequently trap systems in amorphous states. Although experimental synthesis commonly relies on pH-controlled sol-gel routes, computational studies predominantly employ extreme melt-quench protocol...

This study provides a detailed microscopic and macroscopic investigation into the intermolecular interactions and thermophysical properties of binary mixtures containing mesitylene and a homologous series of 2-alkanols (from 2-propanol to 2-octanol). A combined approach utilizing molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, de...

Understanding how molecular-scale interactions govern the assembly and processing of nanocomposite tectons (NCTs) is essential for the design of functional nanoparticle superlattices. Here, we present a multiscale simulation framework that connects explicit microscale descriptions of polymer-grafted, supramolecularly f...
