Conformal behavior of a single chain $АВ$ block copolymer with mobile $В$-blocks

Monte-Carlo computer modeling was used to investigate the conformal behavior of a single chain $AB$ block copolymer with mobile hydrophobic $B$-blocks and hydrophilic $A$-links. The formation of a “tailed globule” was observed with an increase of the energy of attraction between hydrophobic links. A comparison between the collapsing of a chain with mobile blocks and the behavior of regular and random block copolymers of the same structure was conducted.
