Water is not a Dynamic Polydisperse Branched Polymer
Abstract
The contributed paper by Naserifar and Goddard reports that their RexPoN water model under ambient conditions simulates liquid water as a dynamic polydisperse branched polymer, which they speculate explains the existence of the liquid-liquid critical point (LLCP) in the supercooled region. Our work addresses several serious factual errors and needless speculation in their paper about their interpretation of their model and its implication for the LLCP in supercooled water.
