abstract = {Melts of three-armed star polymers have been simulated
using a coarse-grained model parameterized by atomistic
simulations of polyethylene. The bonds between the highly
coarse-grained, and hence soft, polymer beads are explicitly
prevented from crossing by the TWENTANGLEMENT algorithm. The
three melts of symmetric stars, differing in the lengths of
the arms, are compared against five melts of linear polymers
with comparable dimensions to study the impact of branched
architecture on self-diffusion and bulk rheological
properties. Differently from the power-law relation between
the viscosity and molecular mass of linear chains, the star
polymers in our simulations follow an exponential
mass–viscosity relation and show qualitative agreement
with the storage and loss moduli for stars with far longer
arms from experiments. The stress relaxation dynamics of the
stars are also compared with theoretical analysis in terms
of Rouse modes.},
