✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Equilibrium P–V–T properties of randomly crosslinked amorphous polymer networks are modeled via molecular dynamics simulation for connectivity ratios between 1.0 and 1.5. The relation between connectivity ratio and network shrinkage is studied over a wide range of temperatures and pressures. The simulation results are compared to a mean‐field Flory–Huggins lattice model.
