Abstract:Five simulation models of chloroprene rubber (CR)/polyurethane (PU) with different composition ratios (9/1, 8/2, 7/3, 6/4, 5/5) are constructed and simulated using molecular dynamics (MD) simulation. The effects of PU content on blend compatibility and mechanical properties are investigated using solubility parameters, the Flory–Huggins interaction parameter, binding energy, glass transition temperature, and the radial distribution function. The objectives of this study are to develop a computational model bas… Show more
