Polymers in Solution — Flow Techniques

  • Chapter
Modern Aspects of Small-Angle Scattering

Part of the book series: Nato ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 451))

Abstract

The understanding of the structure and dynamics of polymer molecules, both in solution and in the bulk state, has considerably advanced in the past 20 years by application of the technique of neutron scattering, in particular at small angles (SANS). Variable wavelengths and sample-to-detector distances at modern SANS instruments provide a range of momentum transfer which is suitable for studying molecular structures that are between some 1 and 100 nm across. Studies under equilibrium conditions allow one to characterize single molecule parameters and molecular interaction parameters in dilute and concentrated solutions. Other examples are studies of critical phenomena in phase separation, of chain morphology in aggregated systems such as networks and crystalline polymers and characterization of deformation and orientation processes on a molecular level.
