Abstract:Interfacial interactions of polymers with 2,6-diamino-3,5-dinitropyrazine-1-oxide (LLM-105) directly influence the surface boating effects of LLM-105. The analyses of interactional models and strength at the atomic and molecular level will help to reveal the micro-mechanism of the interfacial interactions. In this work, molecular dynamics (MD) method was used to simulate the interfacial interactions of fluoropolymers (F2311, F2313, F2314, F2462) and polyurethane (Estane 5703) with LLM-105 at different crystal faces. Interactional mode and strength between the polymers and LLM-105 at different crystal faces were analyzed, and the screening principle of the polymer binders was preliminarily proposed. According to the principle, nitrifying bacterial cellulose (NBC, a new polymer) was selected and the interactions between NBC and LLM-105 were simulated. The effect of six polymers on the mechanical properties of LLM-105 was discussed using static elastic constant analysis. The simulation results show that the bonding energies of all polymers with LLM-105 at various crystal faces are positive and the increasing order of bonding strength is LLM-105/NBC≈LLM-105/Estane 5703>LLM-105/F2313≈LLM-105/F2314≈LLM-105/F2311>LLM-105/F2462. The (1 0 1) crystal face with the largest binding energy has the smallest exposed surface in the crystal(0.39%), while the(0 2 0) and (0 1 1) crystal faces with smaller binding energies have the larger exposed surface (>60% in total). The Van der Waals force is dominant in the interfacial interactions and is much higher than the electrostatic interactions. The polymers possessing strong interactions with LLM-105 simultaneously have good hydrogen-bonding donors and acceptors. The effective isotropic modulus and the Cauchy pressure values show that NBC, Estane 5703, and F2462 can slightly improve, F2311 and F2313 has no influence, and F2314 reduce the mechanical properties of LLM-105.
