Competitive solvation effects in polyelectrolyte solutions

August 1, 2018
Author(s)
Alexandros Chremos, Jack F. Douglas
An understanding of the solution properties and phase behavior of natural and synthetic polyelectrolytes requires an understanding of the competitive association of water (“hydration”) and ion association to the polymer backbone and the consequences of

Aggregation and Solubility of a Model Conjugated Donor-Acceptor Polymer

July 31, 2018
Author(s)
Daniel R. Reid, Nicholas E. Jackson, Alexander J. Bourque, Chad R. Snyder, Ronald L. Jones, Juan de Pablo
In organic semiconductors, solution-phase polymer structure and aggregation have a strong influence on device morphology and performance. Thus, understanding solubility of conjugated polymers is crucial for their rational design. Using a combination of

Effect of temperature on the structure and dynamics of triblock copolymer coacervate hydrogels

July 16, 2018
Author(s)
Vivek M. Prabhu, Ryan C. Nieuwendaal, Anand Rahalkar, Juan J. DePablo, Samanvaya Srivastava, Matthew Tirrell
Triblock copolymer coacervate gels were characterized by small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) and dynamic light scattering. The oppositely charged polyelectrolyte complex core size does not change with temperature. However, the neutral middle block that

Characterization of Interfacial Structure in Polymer-Fullerene Bulk Heterojunctions via 13C {2H} Rotational Echo Double Resonance NMR

July 13, 2018
Author(s)
Ryan C. Nieuwendaal, Dean M. DeLongchamp, Martin Heeney, Jan Hummelen, Chad R. Snyder, Ronald L. Jones, Sebastian Engmann, Lee J. Richter, Zhuping Fei, Alex Sieval
We introduce a new application of solid state NMR measurements towards characterizing the donor-acceptor interfaces within bulk heterojunction (BHJ) films. Rotational echo double resonance (REDOR) is used to measure dipolar couplings between 13C nuclei on

Polyelectrolyte association and solvation

July 10, 2018
Author(s)
Alexandros Chremos, Jack F. Douglas
There has been significant interest in the tendency of highly charged particles having the same charge to form dynamic clusters in solution, but an accepted theoretical framework that can account for this ubiquitous phenomenon has been slow to develop. The

Design and Implementation of pyPRISM: A Polymer Liquid-State Theory Framework

June 15, 2018
Author(s)
Tyler B. Martin, Thomas E. Gartner, Ronald L. Jones, Chad R. Snyder, Arthi Jayaraman
Polymer Reference Interaction Site Model (PRISM) theory describes the equilibrium spatial- correlations, thermodynamics, and structure of liquid- like polymer systems and macromolecular materials. Here, we describe the code structure, implementation, and
