Abstract

Laser light scattering (LLS), small angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) and small angle neutron scattering (SANS) are complementary to one another. Together, they become unmatched among the physical techniques which can investigate the structure and dynamics of polymeric materials over a large range of time and length scales. In this lecture, the application of synchrotron x-rays to some of the problems in polymer physics is presented. The work performed by Chu and collaborators on phase transition in polymer blends, structure of ionomers, conformation of polymers and supramolecular structures in solution, epoxy polymerization and crystallization processes, as well as anisotropic scattering by a single filament are discussed.
