Dynamics of polymer segments, polymer chains, and nanoparticles in polymer nanocomposite melts: A review

Journal Article Bailey, Eric J. ; Winey, Karen I. - Progress in Polymer Science

The addition of nanoparticles (NPs) to a polymer matrix, forming a polymer nanocomposite (PNC), is known to alter the microscopic dynamic processes of both species which leads to unique macroscopic material properties of the PNC. Because the NPs and polymers have overlapping characteristic length, time, and energy scales, the interactions within these materials are complex and the dynamics are interrelated. In this review, we present an overview of experimental, simulation, and theoretical results that probe multi-scale polymer and nanoparticle dynamics in polymer nanocomposites and navigate the dense parameter space presented by these multicomponent systems. Although a variety of PNC systemsmore »« less

Consequences of Delayed Chain Retraction on the Rheology and Stretch Dynamics of Entangled Polymer Liquids under Continuous Nonlinear Shear Deformation

Journal Article Xie, Shi-Jie ; Schweizer, Kenneth S. - Macromolecules

Here, we generalize our recent new ideas for the continuous startup shear rheology of entangled polymer liquids in the transient stress overshoot regime to formulate a theory for the full constitutive response and nonequilibrium dynamics over all time scales, deformation rates, and degrees of entanglement. The convective constraint release (CCR) idea that chain retraction locally triggers disentanglement in a shear-rate-dependent manner is significantly modified to be physically consistent with our nonclassical treatment of delayed retraction due to an entanglement grip force. A detailed numerical study of the predictions of the theory is presented for the full stress–strain response, scaling behaviormore »« less

Segment-scale, force-level theory of mesoscopic dynamic localization and entropic elasticity in entangled chain polymer liquids

Journal Article Dell, Zachary E. ; Schweizer, Kenneth S. - Journal of Chemical Physics

In this study, we develop a segment-scale, force-based theory for the breakdown of the unentangled Rouse model and subsequent emergence of isotropic mesoscopic localization and entropic elasticity in chain polymer liquids in the absence of ergodicity-restoring anisotropic reptation or activated hopping motion. The theory is formulated in terms of a conformational N-dynamic-order-parameter generalized Langevin equation approach. It is implemented using a universal field-theoretic Gaussian thread model of polymer structure and closed at the level of the chain dynamic second moment matrix. The physical idea is that the isotropic Rouse model fails due to the dynamical emergence, with increasing chain length,more »« less

Chain and Segmental Dynamics in Polymer–Nanoparticle Composites with High Nanoparticle Loading

Journal Article Lin, Emily Y. ; Frischknecht, Amalie L. ; Riggleman, Robert A. - Macromolecules

Recent experimental and simulation studies have shown that polymer–nanoparticle (NP) composites (PNCs) with ultra-high NP loading (>50%) exhibit remarkable mechanical properties and dramatic increases in polymer glass-transition temperature, viscosity, and thermal stability compared to the bulk polymer. These deviations in macroscopic properties suggest a slowdown in both segmental and chain-scale polymer dynamics due to confinement. In this work, we examine the polymer conformations and dynamics in these PNCs using molecular dynamics simulations of both unentangled and entangled coarse-grained polymers in random-close-packed NP packings with varying polymer fill fractions. We find that the changes in the polymer dynamics depend on themore »« less

Structure and Entanglement Factors on Dynamics of Polymer-Grafted Nanoparticles

Journal Article Liu, Siqi ; Senses, Erkan ; Jiao, Yang ; ... - ACS Macro Letters

Nanoparticles functionalized with long polymer chains at low graft density are interesting systems to study structure–dynamic relationships in polymer nanocomposites since they are shown to aggregate into strings in both solution and melts and also into spheres and branched aggregates in the presence of free polymer chains. Our work investigates structure and entanglement effects in composites of polystyrene-grafted iron oxide nanoparticles by measuring particle relaxations using X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy. And for particles within highly ordered strings and aggregated systems, they experience a dynamically heterogeneous environment displaying hyperdiffusive relaxation commonly observed in jammed soft glassy systems. Furthermore, particle dynamics ismore »« less
