Hidden Hyperuniformity in Bottlebrush Polymer Melts

Published

Author(s)

Alexandros Chremos, Jack F. Douglas

Abstract

We show that the backbone chains of bottlebrush polymer melts exhibit a hidden hyperuniform packing over a wide temperature range above glass transition temperature. These findings open a venue for a practical design of hyperuniform polymeric materials for potential applications.
