โœฆ Synopsis

We consider a simple model of a random flight chain of length S confined between two parallel plates of area A separated by distance L. Adsorption of the polymer at the plate surfaces is neglected. The resulting pressure exerted on the plates due to configurational entropy is always repulsive. We obtain

The absence of spontaneous blending of an amorphous polymer with a liquid, when their solubility parameters coincide, is explained by a specific feature of the polymer supermolecular skeleton. The process of spontaneous blending requires dissolving the supermolecular skeleton and takes place only un
