MOLECULAR DYNAMICS SIMULATION ON VIERATIONAL SPECTROSCOPIC FEATURES OF HYDROGEN BONDS IN CRYSTALLINE POLYMERS

摘要

Introduction The molecular dynamics simulation technique has recently proved to be a suitable alternative approachfor simulation of vibrational spectroscopy. In this study, molecular dynamics was utilized to understandlow frequency vibrations in highly ordered poly(ρ-phenylene terephthalmide) (PPTA). A key structuralfeature of this polymer is the presence of hydrogen bonds. There is little question that this strong
