Development of a coarse-grained molecular dynamics model for poly(dimethyl-co-diphenyl)siloxane
DOI: 10.1039/D4SM00875H, Paper
Polydimethylsiloxane and its copolymer systems have a wide range of application. We systematically develop a coarse-grained MD model for PDMS-co-PDPS system. The model preserves the structural and dynamic properties of the material quantitatively.
