Systematic coarse-graining of the dynamics of entangled polymer melts: the road from chemistry to rheology

Systematic coarse-graining of the dynamics of entangled polymer melts: the road from chemistry to rheology

For optimal processing and design of entangled polymeric materials it is important to establish a rigorous link between the detailed molecular composition of the polymer and the viscoelastic properties of the macroscopic melt. We review current and past computer simulation techniques and critically assess their ability to provide such a …
