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.

Detailed Description
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.
