From manufacturing to recycling, industries can benefit a lot from the use of polymer analysis by XRF. A recent interview with Christopher Shaffer, XRF, XRD, and OES Business Development Manager, from ...

XRD works by directing X-rays onto a crystalline material and analyzing the angles and intensities of the diffracted beams. The atomic planes within the crystal act as a three-dimensional grating, ...

The UC Enuity ultramicrotome from Leica Microsystems is well-suited for preparing ultrathin sections of polymer samples under both cryogenic and ambient conditions. This article presents a series of ...

Polymers are materials composed of repeated chains of molecules. Both natural and synthetic polymers possess many important properties that are influenced by the conformation and composition of ...
