CoilGlobuleTransition
CoilGlobuleTransition is a physical phenomenon observed in polymer science, describing a conformational change in polymer chains from an expanded coil state to a compact globule form. This transition is often induced by changes in environmental conditions such as temperature, solvent quality, or ionic strength.
In a good solvent, a polymer chain tends to adopt an expanded coil conformation due to favorable
The coil-globule transition is closely related to phase transition theories and is characterized by changes in
The transition can be modeled mathematically through theories like the Flory-Huggins solution theory and self-avoiding walk
Overall, the CoilGlobuleTransition provides significant insight into polymer behavior under varying conditions, with implications across materials
