Rigidity enhances a magic-number effect in polymer phase separation
The phase separation of two species of associating polymers is suppressed by a magic-number effect for certain combinations of the numbers of binding sites. Here the authors use lattice simulations and analytical calculations to show that this magic-number effect can be greatly enhanced if one compo...
