Liquid state theory of the local and long wavelength structure and thermodynamic properties of block copolymer liquids
… ""polymer reference interaction site model"" (PRISM) theory to AB copolymers is presented. Within a simple ""symmetric"" model, analytical and numerical predictions are made for the fluctuation stabilization, peak scattering wavevector, and effective chi-parameter. The conditions for contact …

Particle microstructure and polymer dynamics in concentrated polymer solutions
… the Polymer Reference Site Interaction Model (PRISM) theory. Exploiting contrast matching small-angle neutron scattering all partial collective structure factors of particles, polymers and their interface are characterized establishing the existence and size of adsorbed polymer layers. …

Statistical mechanical theory of equilibrium structure and miscibility of polymer nanocomposites: effects of polymer chemical heterogeneity and architecture, and nanoparticle surface corrugation and softness
… the Polymer Reference Interaction Site Model (PRISM) theory is extended and applied to study the thermodynamics, statistical structure, and miscibility of diverse polymer nanocomposites (PNCs). Under chemistry-matched conditions and in the absence of interfacial attractions between a …

Statistical mechanical theory of structure and miscibility of polymer nanocomposites: Effects of density, filler shape, and chemical heterogeneity
… the Polymer Reference Site Interaction Model (PRISM) theory is applied to study the structure and miscibility of polymer nanocomposites (PNCs). Spherical fillers are studied in homopolymers of varying density and interfacial interaction strengths, with specific favorable comparisons to …
