AbstractThe structure and dynamics of linear monodisperse polyethylene (PE) melts containing homogeneously distributed spherical nanoparticles were investigated. The PE chains were simulated using a coarse-grained model and a Monte Carlo algorithm. Two variables were considered: (i) the wall-to-wall distance between particles d and (ii) the interaction energy between monomers and particles.
