structure of a polymer is determined by the chemical structure of its
monomers. However, the molecular weight and molecular weight
distribution of a polymer generally depend on polymerization
conditions and the Molecular Dynamics Approach will enable the
engineers to predict important properties of the polymeric materials
such as
· Mechanical Properties :
Stress-Strain curve, Elastic modulus, Hysteresis, Peeling, Interfacial
failure
· Thermal Properties - Glass transition, Melting, Thermal expansion
· Permeability/ Diffusion - Gas barrier, Dissolution mechanism of
gas or small molecule, Diffusion mechanism of gas or small molecule
· Interfacial: Solubility, Phase separation, Interface structure, Surface
tension, Surfactant's effect
· Rheology: G', G'', Viscoelasticity
· Optical: Birefringence

And so on for Plastic, Rubber, Elastomer, Synthetic iber, Thin ilm,
