Effect of Short Chain Branching on the Interlamellar Structure of Semicrystalline Polyethylene

Effect of Short Chain Branching on the Interlamellar Structure of Semicrystalline Polyethylene

We use molecular simulations with a united atom force field to examine the effect of short chain branching (SCB) on the noncrystalline, interlamellar structure typical of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE). The model is predicated on a metastable thermodynamic equilibrium within the interlamell...
