Abstract
In considering the function of polymers, polymer conformations at surface and near-surface depth are very important. In these days, there are many analytical methods to have an information of surface properties of polymers. However, simulation gives us the knowledge of surface and near-surface depth conformations of polymers. And by using the simulation, molecular design becomes possible.
In this chapter, I introduce very easy simulation methods for end-segment distribution of polymer of homopolymer system and blend system (short polymer and long polymer) by using SUSHI of OCTA.
