Abstract
By using contact-density chain growth simulations we study the scaling behavior of the adsorption transition of lattice homopoly- mers with up to 503 monomers. The reciprocal solubility parameter s, which controls the quality of the solvent in which the polymer is immersed, is systematically varied within the range from good to poor solvent. The critical adsorption temperature and the crossover exponent φ that is related to the number of monomers in contact with the substrate at the transition point, are obtained for several values of s.
