A Science Friction Story: Molecular Interactions in Semiflexible Polymer Networks
Abstract: Established model theories, developed to capture the mechanical behavior of soft, complex materials composed of semiflexible polymers, assume that entropic interactions between filaments are primarily responsible for determining the mechanical response. In recent studies, the generally accepted tube model has been challenged in terms of this basic assumption about filament–filament interactions, but also because of its predictions regarding the frequency dependence of the elastic modulus in the intermediate frequency regime. A central question is how molecular interactions and friction between network constituents influence the rheological response of isotropic entangled networks of semiflexible polymers. It has been previously shown that friction forces between aligned pairs of actin filaments are not negligible. Here, the influence of friction forces and attractive interactions on network rheology is systematically investigated by means of targeted surface modification. It is shown that these forces have a qualitative and quantitative influence on the viscoelastic properties of semiflexible polymer networks and contribute to their response to nonlinear deformations. By comparing two polymer model systems with respect to their surface compositions, a possible explanation is given about the origin of acting forces on a molecular level.
