Kuhn length

The Kuhn length is a theoretical treatment, developed by Werner Kuhn, in which a real polymer chain is considered as a collection of N Kuhn segments each with a Kuhn length b. Each Kuhn segment can be thought of as if they are freely jointed with each other.〔Flory, P.J. (1953) ''Principles of Polymer Chemistry'', Cornell Univ. Press, ISBN 0-8014-0134-8〕〔Flory, P.J. (1969) ''Statistical Mechanics of Chain Molecules'', Wiley, ISBN 0-470-26495-0; reissued 1989, ISBN 1-56990-019-1〕〔Rubinstein, M., Colby, R. H. (2003)''Polymer Physics'', Oxford University Press, ISBN 0-19-852059-X〕 Each segment in a freely jointed chain can randomly orient in any direction without the influence of any forces, independent of the directions taken by other segments. Instead of considering a real chain consisting of n bonds and with fixed bond angles, torsion angles, and bond lengths, Kuhn considered an equivalent ideal chain with N connected segments, now called Kuhn segments, that can orient in any random direction.
The length of a fully stretched chain is L=Nb for the Kuhn segment chain.〔
〕 In the simplest treatment, such a chain follows the random walk model, where each step taken in a random direction is independent of the directions taken in the previous steps, forming a random coil. The average end-to-end distance for a chain satisfying the random walk model is \langle R^2\rangle = Nb^2.
Since the space occupied by a segment in the polymer chain cannot be taken by another segment, a self-avoiding random walk model can also be used. The Kuhn segment construction is useful in that it allows complicated polymers to be treated with simplified models as either a random walk or a self-avoiding walk, which can simplify the treatment considerably.
For an actual homopolymer chain (consists of the same repeat units) with bond length l and bond angle θ with a dihedral angle energy potential, the average end-to-end distance can be obtained as
:\langle R^2 \rangle = n l^2 \frac \cdot \frac ,
::where \langle \cos(\textstyle\phi\,\!) \rangle is the average cosine of the dihedral angle.
The fully stretched length L = nl\, \cos(\theta/2). By equating \langle R^2 \rangle and L for the actual chain and the equivalent chain with Kuhn segments, the number of Kuhn segments N and the Kuhn segment length b can be obtained.
For worm-like chain, Kuhn length equals two times the persistence length.〔Gert R. Strobl (2007) ''The physics of polymers: concepts for understanding their structures and behavior'', Springer, ISBN 3-540-25278-9〕
