Anomalous small-angle X-ray scattering with two marker elements was applied to the structural analysis of poly(4-vinylphenol rubidium salt)-block-poly(4-bromostyrene) (RbPVPh-b-PBrS) micelles, where Br and Rb were the markers for the hydrophobic core and the hydrated corona, respectively. By using two different markers for the hydrophobic core and the hydrated corona, the form factors of the core and corona were extracted separately from the scattering profile of the whole RbPVPh-b-PBrS micelles. The form factor of the hydrophobic core (the spatial distribution of Br) revealed that the core was regarded as a solid sphere with a smooth surface and a radius of 47 nm. Conversely, the form factor of the spatial distribution of Rb+indicated that the shell of the RbPVPh-b-PBrS micelles was 15 nm thick.

We have directly observed the <i>in situ</i> self-assembly kinetics of polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) micelles by synchrotron time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering, equipped with a stopped-flow device that provides millisecond temporal resolution. This work has elucidated one general kinetic pathway for the process of PEC micelle formation, which provides useful physical insights for increasing our fundamental understanding of complexation and self-assembly dynamics driven by electrostatic interactions that occur on ultrafast timescales.

Porosity variations induced by swelling agent exchange were studied in a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. Standard methods were used in the characterization of copolymer porosity in the dry state and the results were compared with related structural parameters derived from small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements as developed for the characterization of two-phase systems. The SAXS method was also used for porosity determination in swollen samples. The differences in the porosity of dry samples were found to be an effect of the drying process, while in the swollen state the sample swells and deswells isotropically.
