1 PROGRESS IN CHEMISTRY Vol. 16 No. 3 May ( ) O64113 ; O64311 A X(2004) Advances in Computer Simulation of Macromolecule Self2assembly Li Wei 3 3 Han Yongcai Zhang Jinli (School of Chemical Engineering and Technology Tianjin University Tianjin China) Abstract Macromolecules including surfactants can aggregate to form micelles with various shapes in solution and this character makes it widely used in the applications of industrial and living fields. It is significant to study the charac2 ters of aggregation of surfactants especially for the study of aggregation of amphiphilic macromolecules in life sciences and for biomineralization or biomimetic synthesis. In this paper the progress in computer simulation of macromolecules self2assembling is summarized from the thermodynamic and molecular dynamic point of view. Key words macromolecules ; surfactants ; self2assembly ; templates ; molecular dynamics ; simulation ( P ) (DNA ) ; [1 ] ( biomimetic synthesis) [2 3 ] (No ) (No ) 3 3 e2mail edu. cn
