Abstract:Dissipative particle dynamics simulations with explicit treatment of polar species reveals that the molecular nature of dielectric media has a significant impact on the swelling and collapse of a polyelectrolyte chain in a dilute solution.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
