We investigate via molecular dynamics simulations the behaviour of a polymer melt confined between surfaces with increasing spatial correlation (patchiness) of weakly and strongly interacting sites.

We couple Molecular Dynamics simulations with optical tweezers microrheology to discover that DNA–actin composites display maximal stiffening when the two species have similar number of entanglements and not when entanglements are maximized.
