The Structure of Dipolar Polymer Brushes and Their Interaction in the Melt. Impact of Chain Stiffness

By using the numerical lattice Scheutjens–Fleer self-consistent field (SF-SCF) method we have studied the effect of the restricted flexibility of grafted chains on the structure and mutual interaction of two opposing planar conventional and A-type dipolar brushes. Brushes are immersed in the solvent...
