Dynamics and Association in Individualized Macromolecules (B15*)

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

The project focusses on crystallization and dynamics of reversible association in polymeric molecules under the constraints of solitude and individual spatial confinement. Key questions are which minimum length individualized chains must have to crystallize and how the formation of loops at the crystallite edges constrains this process. Additionally, the impact of solid boundaries on such systems will be investigated. Finally, the association dynamics of hydrogen-bonding functional groups in individualized polymers will be addressed.
