Based on the model of random walk on the simple cubic lattice
the distribution function of conformation of a polymer chain in an interfacial layer was deduced.If the model chain was consisted of N segments
it was possible to form both the tail chain
when the terminal segments were adsorbed at the interface
and the adsorbed chain with the non-terminal group.The conformational number Ωtail of a tail chain is equal to Ωfree/(6πN)1/2
where Ωfree is the conformational number of a chain in free state and equals to 6N for this random walk model.It was found from theoretical analysis that
for the set of a chain attached non-terminally to the interface
the total conformational number Ωtot is equal to Ωfree/6.As an result
the average conformational number Ωm for the chain attached non-terminally to the interface is Ωfree/6N.In the case of short chain
for instance N is equal to about 10
the conformational number Ωtail of tail chain is even larger than the total number Ωtot. In the limitation of long chain
however
the conformational number Ωtail for tail chain is nuch large than Ωm
but smaller than Ωtot.The conclusion is that the distribution function of conformation for chains in the interfacial layer is not uniform
but has a special distribution form described in this paper.
