摘要
We show that Shaffer's version of the bond fluctuation model can be used to simulate three-arm star polymers. We report a simulation study of both single stars and melts of star polymers with ann lengths up to 90 monomer units (approximately twice the entanglement crossover length for linear chains). Center-of-mass self-diffusion of single stars is Rouse-like (D similar to N-1). Due to a limited range of molecular weights we cannot distinguish between a power-law and an exponential dependence of the star-melt self-diffusion coefficient on arm length.
