Abstract

A new approach for studying porosity in ceramic or metallic materials has been developed using multiple neutron scattering in the small‐angle regime. This technique enables the measurement of voids from 0.08 to 10 μm in size with 1% to 50% porosity. Whereas a fully dense alumina sample showed no evidence of multiple neutron‐scattering effects, a more porous alumina exhibited striking neutron wavelength dependence. The voids in the latter material are 1.48 μm in mean diameter and 10.5% in volume fraction.
