Method Potentials Potentials The majority of the potentials we use for PEO originate from earlier work The torsional potential for the C-C-C-O dihedral angle in the side-chain linkage region is calculated by Quantum Mechanics (QM) Fig. 6. The region of the calculated torsional potential. C C C O

QM method and basis-sets: HF/6-31G **, HF/ G ** Technical information: A total of 784 CPU hours was used on our in-house Linux PC-cluster using NWChem software Analytical torsion potential function: Method Calculation of torsion potential C-C-C-O Calculation of torsion potential C-C-C-O u i are constants and  is the torsion angle.

Method Fig. 8. The “unpacked” configuration with a single side-chain for MD simulation. 9 side-chain systems (marked as s5-s9, s11, s15, s19 and s23): a cubic periodic box (24.5 x 24.5 x 24.5 Å) containing a 186 EO-monomer PEO chain with a 5-9, 11, 15, 19, and 23 EO- monomer PEO side-chains. Reference system (marked as r): a cubic periodic box (24.5 x 24.5 x 24.5 Å) containing a single PEO chain involving 193 EO-monomers with no side-chain. Simulation boxes generated by controlled pivotal Monte Carlo growth. The density maintained around 1.0 g/cm 3. MD configurations MD configurations

Results AV for O-atoms along the side-chain for different side-chains lengths AV for O-atoms along the side-chain for different side-chains lengths Fig. 15. AV for O-atoms along the side-chain for different lengths. “1”: 1 st atom “max”: end of side-chain

Summary RDF for the reference system (r) and all the side-chain systems (s5-s9, s11, s15, s19, s23) are identical The addition of side-chains decreases chain mobility A minimum occurs in the diffusion coefficents between 6 and 9 EO side- chain units – in excellent agreement with experiment! A maximum occurs in the side-chain diffusion coefficents between 5 and 11 EO side-chain units A maximum occurs in the side-chain atoms AVs between 6 and 8 EO side- chain units The average AV depends the side-chain length: two maxima a appear - at 8 and 15 EO side-chain units
