What Happens When Threading is Suppressed in Blends of Ring and Linear Polymers?
Self-diffusivity of a large tracer ring polymer, D r , immersed in a matrix of linear polymers with N l monomers each shows unusual length dependence. D r initially increases, and then decreases with increasing N l . To understand the relationship between the nonmonoton...
