• Into what types of overall shapes or conformations can polymer chains arrange themselves? • How do polymer chains interact with one another. • Into what types of forms or morphologies do the chains organize • What is the relationship of conformation and morphology to polymer microstructure. • What is the relationship of conformation and morphology to macroscopic properties.

Hydrogen Bonds
H - N C = O H - N
C = O H - N C = O
There is no simple, universally accepted definition of a hydrogen bond, but the description given by Pauling** comes close to capturing its essence; . . . under certain circumstances an atom of hydrogen is attracted by rather strong forces to two atoms instead of only one, so that it may be considered to be acting as a bond between them. This is called a hydrogen bond The N-H and C=O groups of nylon (and the polypeptides and proteins) interact in this manner;

Hydrogen bonds form between functional groups A–H and B such that the proton usually lies on a straight line joining A–H -- B. The atoms A and B are usually only the most electronegative, i.e., fluorine, oxygen and nitrogen

The hydrogen bond is largely electrostatic in nature

How Many Shapes or Conformations are Available to
a Chain ?
• Assume each bond in the chain is only allowed to be in one of three conformations, trans, gauche and the other gauche • Assume each of these conformations has the same energy
A Simple Estimate
Just one of many conformations or configurations
![Page 22: Estructura_Conformación de cadena](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577cc9e91a28aba711a4eed0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
How Many Conformations are Available to a Chain?
The first bond can therefore be found in any one of three conformations, as can the second, the third, and so on. How many configurations are available to the first two bonds taken together (ignoring redundancies). A. 3+3=6 B. 3x3=9

How many arrangements are there for a chain with 10,000 bonds ?
For this chain of 10 bonds there are 3.3.3.3.3.3.3.3.3.3 = 310 possible arrangements. Or have we over-counted?
![Page 24: Estructura_Conformación de cadena](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022022413/577cc9e91a28aba711a4eed0/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
How Many Conformations are Available to a Chain Consisting of 10,000 Bonds ?
The answer would seem to be simple; 310,000 =104,771
But you have to be careful in doing these types of calculations. You have to account for redundancies.
Crucial Point; even after accounting for redundancies there are one hell of a lot of (distinguishable) configurations available to a chain. So, how on earth can we relate structure, or in this case the absence of structure, to properties?

The Chain End-to-End Distance
R
• It is the enormous number that saves us as it permits a statistical approach. • But we will need a parameter that tells us something about the shape of the chain.

The Chain End-to-End Distance
R
R
The distance between the ends will be equal to the chain length if the chain is fully stretched out;
But may approach zero if the chain is squished in on itself forming a compact ball.
Intuitively, one would expect most chains to lie somewhere between these extremes.

Random Walks and Random Flights
• Consider steps of equal length, defined by the chemical bonds.
For a polymer chain;
Complications; • A polymer chain is sterically excluded from an element of volume occupied by other bits of itself. • The “steps” taken by a chain are constrained by the nature of the covalent bond and the steric limitations placed on bond rotations.

• To begin with we are only going to consider a one- dimensional walk. • Actually, that is all we really need.
• Imagine a three dimensional walk projected onto (say) the x-axis of a Cartesian system • There will be some average value of the bond length <l>, that we can use*. • We can then sum the contributions of projections in all three spatial directions (remember Pythagoras ?) to get the end -to - end distance R
* This is actually calculated using the same arguments as we are going to use for the random walk!

Probability Distributions
• Another way to graph this is to plot the fraction of walks that end up a distance R from the pub. • Each of these values then also represents the probability that a walk of N steps will have an end - to-end distance R. • This is a probability distribution, P(R), and if you know some statistics you may guess that the shape of the curve will be Gaussian (for large N). (See equation on y-axis). We’ll come back to this.

The Radial Distribution Function
A distribution function that describes the end-to-end distance regardless of direction can be obtained by fixing one end of the chain at the origin of a coordinate system and then finding the probability that the other end lies in an element of volume 4πR2dR. This is the radial distribution function and is simply given by

• If a chain in its most probable state is stretched, then it enters a less probable state
