โœฆ Synopsis


The final properties of a polymer commonly depend on its microstructural disorder. Solution step-growth copolymerization can lead to macromolecules with non-random distribution of monomeric units, by adjusting timing and rate of addition of reactants. We have developed a simulation program, based on the Monte Carlo method, able to forecast the randomness degree of a step-growth copolymer based on the above mentioned parameters. Numerical results are in good qualitative agreement with published experimental data.

The size distribution of clusters of impinged grains is investigated in the nucleation and growth process. The results are obtained for different nucleation kinetics by a computer simulation. It is shown that the cluster-size distribution function strongly depends on the nucleation kinetics and its
