Polymers and Classical Simulation Software
Materials Studio's polymer and simulation modeling software allows you to construct and characterize models of isolated chains or crystalline and amorphous bulk polymers. Its prognostic abilities enable you to predict key properties, including miscibility and blending, cohesion and wetting, mechanical behavior, diffusion, and adhesion at surfaces. Applications include paints and coatings, lubricants, food packaging, gels, and adhesives.
