Solvent-Temperature Superposition Rules for Predicting the Rheology of Wormlike Micellar Fluids
Rajesh Khare, Department of Chemical Engineering, Texas Tech University, Lubbock, TX We employed a coarse grained model in molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the effect of varying solvent quality (strength of interaction between the polymer and the solvent) and temperature on the structural properties of polymers in solution. Our results indicate that increasing the solvent quality has a similar effect on chain size as the effect of lowering the temperature. However, there are quantitative differences in that the effect of solvent quality appears to be stronger. N N
