| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Hydrations and associations in the vicinity of varied types of polymeric membrane materials were evaluated using molecular dynamics simulations. Robust hydration structures were observed around the ketone groups of poly(methyl methacrylate), while the associations between these groups were not identified. In contrast, remarkable associations were observed between the hydroxyl groups of ethylene vinyl alcohol, whereas there were no clear hydration shells around the groups. These results suggest that the hydrations and the associations in the vicinity of molecular chains are significantly different, depending on varied types of polymers.
