We study the effects of droplet finite size on the structure of nanogel particles synthesized by random crosslinking of molecular polymers diluted in nanoemulsions. For this, we use a bead-spring computer model of polymer-like structures that mimics the confined random crosslinking process corresponding to irradiation- or electrochemically-induced crosslinking methods. Our results indicate that random crosslinking under strong confinement can lead to unusual nanogel internal structures, with a central region less dense than the external one, whereas under moderate confinement the resulting structure has a denser central region. We analyze the topology of the polymer networks forming nanogel particles with both types of architectures, their overall structural parameters, their response to the quality of the solvent and compare the cases of non-ionic and ionic systems.
We investigate the internal structure and density profiles of halos of mass $10^{10}-10^{14}~M_odot$ in the Evolution and Assembly of Galaxies and their Environment (EAGLE) simulations. These follow the formation of galaxies in a $Lambda$CDM Universe
When systems that can undergo phase separation between two coexisting phases in the bulk are confined in thin film geometry between parallel walls, the phase behavior can be profoundly modified. These phenomena shall be described and exemplified by c
In this brief note we comment on the recent results presented in arXiv:1812.08736v1
We examine the phase transition of polymer adsorption as well as the underlying kinetics of polymer binding from dilute solutions on a structureless solid surface. The emphasis is put on the properties of regular multiblock copolymers, characterized
Graphene nanochannels are relevant for their possible applications, as in water purification, and for the challenge of understanding how they change the properties of confined liquids. Here, we use all-atom molecular dynamics simulations to investiga
