Description
Small Angle X-ray Scattering is a phenomenon caused by particles embedded in a matrix of different electron density. If the particle size ranges from 1 nm to 100 nm, the scattering angle lies within the range of 0° to 5°. The smaller the particles, the wider the scattering angles.
The Bruker Nanostar system is capable of characterising the nanostructures of noncrystalline materials, both solid and liquid samples, ranging from 1 nm to roughly 125 nm. SAXS can give you information about the shape and size distribution of your particles, as well as how far apart they sit in space.
