How can I study the interaction between polymer (eg PVA) and iodine computationally?
You can study the interaction of polymers and iodine or other salts using density functional theory
Boubaker Zaidi How many monomer units do we need to consider? Also, iodide ions exist in many forms. Where should we place the iodide ions relative to the monomer position?
Please suggest me, I want to present my research work.
