given chain is “aware” of the presence of its two nearest neighbors and of the presence
of the segments next to them, as opposed to the chain term in the original SAFT-HS.
This implies that more detailed information about the chain formation is incorpo-
rated into the chain EOS, thus improving the predictive abilities of the equation of
state. The new chain free energy contribution has the following form [80]
