Abstract
Characterizing Cross‐Linking Within Polymeric Biomaterials in the SEM by Secondary Electron Hyperspectral Imaging
Highlights
The potential of secondary electron (SE) spectroscopy for mate- polymer
The results provide evidence that increasing degree of methacrylate (DM) does directly increase the hardness of the material and has a strong influence on its elastic modulus
The consistency of SE hyperspectral imaging (SEHI) results when compared to those of the Raman spectrum provides a strong argument that both the techniques possess the ability to detect cross-linking in poly(glycerol sebacate)-methacrylate (PGS-M) through CH bonding changes
Summary
The potential of secondary electron (SE) spectroscopy for mate- polymer. Increasing the density of cross-links decreases the rial characterization has been investigated as far back as 1947.[1] ability of polymer chains to slide over each other and accord-. SEHI will be applied to characterize the increasing cross-linking densities of PGS-M at three different DM levels: 30%, 50%, and 80%.
