This coherently written volume summarizes the analytical power of modern X-ray scattering in the field of soft matter.
Applications of X-ray scattering to soft matter have advanced considerably within recent years, both conceptually and technically. There are now mature high-power X-ray sources, synchrotrons and rotating anodes, as well as high-speed detectors, which have become readily available and which make the whole process more viable.
High-quality time-resolved experiments on polymer structure can now be performed with ease, a major advancement due to the genuine power of the scattering method.
This manual is a detailed description of simple tools that can elucidate the mechanisms of structure evolution in the studied materials. It is also a step-by-step guide to more advanced methods of the latest X-ray scattering techniques, and breaks down these methods.
Data analysis based on clear, unequivocal results is rendered simple and straightforward – with a stress on the careful planning of experiments and adequate recording of all required data.
