Influence of solvent quality on polymer solutions: a Monte Carlo study of bulk and interfacial properties.
The effect of solvent quality on dilute and semidilute regimes of polymers in solution is studied by means of Monte Carlo simulations. The equation of state, adsorption near a hard wall, wall-polymer surface tension, and effective depletion potential are all calculated as a function of concentration...
