Ten random atomistic systems, each containing ten oligomeric chains of (C 2 H 4 ) 80 , were generated by growing chains in an atom–by-atom fashion using a Markov chain Monte Carlo method to select lower energy config-urations with increased probability. The systems were then equilibrated using NPT simulations performed at T = 500 K and p = 1 atm over a duration of 8 ns. The relaxation times of the thermostat and barostat were 0.1 ps and 1.0 ps, respectively. The average Rouse relaxation time of…

  • 2021

This work introduces a “dual potential” approach for addressing entropic considerations in more complex systems, such as ortho-terphenyl (OTP), and demonstrates that this dual approach not only accurately describes the structure and energetic properties of the underlying atomic model, but also accurately predicts the temperature-dependence of the CG potentials.

It is found that correcting the potential to match the reference pressure leads to nonbonded interactions with much deeper minima and slightly smaller effective bead diameter, and time rescaling factor required to match CG and atomistic models is the same for pressure- and non-pressure-corrected CG models, it strongly depends on temperature.

A detailed study of the transferability over different thermodynamic states of a coarse-grained (CG) force field developed using the iterative Boltzmann inversion method and finds that the polymer chain length does not affect the transferable of the force field and is attributed mainly to the finer model used in describing the polyamide-6,6 than the polystyrene.
