Open source data in large scale are the cornerstones for data-driven research, but they are not readily available for polymers. In this work, we build a benchmark database, called PI1M (referring to ~
The ability to control polyethylene branching density is of great interest as a means by which a polymer’s thermomechanical properties may be tailored. One particularly interesting way in which this c
It has previously been shown that polyethylene (PE) with a bimodal molar mass distribution has a high fracture toughness. Our approach has been to use coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simul
