ABSTRACTWe present small angle neutron scattering data of porous glasses. Analysis of the structure factor shows that the morphology on length scales between 30 A and 800 A depends on fabrication procedures. Fast gelation leads to a clumpy glass, whereas slow gelation produces a random smooth internal interface.

ABSTRACTAs part of our work on the structure of composite materials we have been exploring the use of small-angle neutron scattering using the method of contrast variation to dissect the component form, structure and distribution. This approach has resulted in a new look at very old problemreinforcement of elastomers by carbon black.Using this approach we studied an experimental high surface area (HSA) carbon black and a gel of "HSA-bound" rubber in cyclohexane/deuterocyclohexane mixtures. HSA in cyclohexane is found to be short rodlike particle aggregates. The aggregates have a shell-core structure with a high density graphitic outer shell and an inner core of lower density amorphous carbon. The core is continuous throughout the carbon black aggregate, making the aggregate a stiff, integral unit. Contrast variation of swollen composite gels shows that there are two length scales in the gel structure. Above 10 Å, scattering from carbon black predominates, and below 10 Å the scattering is from both carbon black and the elastomer. The HSA in the composite is completely embedded in polyisoprene. An estimate of the carbon black structure factor shows strong exclusion of neighboring aggregates, probably from excluded volume effects. The surface structure of the carbon black is unaltered by the interactions with elastomer and appears smooth over length scales above about 10 Å. These results show that contrast variation can provide information on composite structure that is not available by other means. This information relates to the reinforcement mechanism of elastomers by carbon blacks.
