Interpenetration of two chains different in sizes: Some Exact Results
Abstract
A model of two interacting polymer chains has been proposed to study the effect of penetration of one chain in to the other. We show that small chain penetrates more in comparison to the long chain. We also find a condition in which both chains cannot grow on their own (or polymerize) but can grow (polymerize) in zipped form.
