In this study, in situ synchrotron X-ray experiments with wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) and small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) detectors were performed on two pure magnesium materials produced by powder metallurgy. According to SAXS analysis, each of the two materials has a porosity of less than 0.5%. Line broadening analysis was performed on diffraction patterns collected by WAXS to analyze the dislocation evolution during material deformation. In both materials, <a>-type dislocation activities dominate the tensile deformation. The influence of grain size and texture on the different tensile behaviors of these two materials is also discussed.

With the advent of new in situ structural characterisation techniques including X-ray scattering, there has been an increased interest in investigations of the reaction kinetics of nucleation and growth of nanoparticles as well as self-assembly processes. In this chapter, we discuss the applications of microfluidic devices specifically developed for the investigation of time resolved analysis of growth kinetics and structural evolution of nanoparticles and nanofibers. We focus on the design considerations required for spectrometry and SAXS analysis, the advantages of using a combination of SAXS and microfluidics for these measurements, and discuss in an applied fashion the use of these devices for time-resolved research.

AbstractInitial results are presented of in-situ wide angle x-ray scattering (WAXS) studies of structure and orientation development in the draw zone during fiber spinning of poly(p-phenylene benzobisoxazole) (PBO) in polyphosphoric acid (PPA). The diffraction patterns show strong [100] and [002] reflections. The coherence lengths found from the [100] and [002] reflections are consistent with those found by electron diffraction and suggest important elements of the microfibrillar morphology may already be present in the texture of the extrudate before coagulation. Increasing extrusion rate is found to produce little improvement in molecular orientation. Molecular orientation initially increases with increasing draw ratio from 1 to 10 but, remains constant for higher draw ratios. These results are compared to an affine deformation model during elongational flow.

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.

Abstract Objective Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis is a sensitive way of determining the ultrastructure of collagen in tissues. Little is known about how parameters measured by SAXS are affected by preservatives commonly used to prevent autolysis. We determined the effects of formalin, glutaraldehyde, Triton X and saline on measurements of fibril diameter, fibril diameter distribution, and D-spacing of corneal collagen using SAXS analysis. Results Compared to sections of sheep and cats’ corneas stored frozen as controls, those preserved in 5% glutaraldehyde and 10% formalin had significantly larger mean collagen fibril diameters, increased fibril diameter distribution and decreased D-spacing. Sections of corneas preserved in Triton X had significantly increased collagen fibril diameters and decreased fibril diameter distribution. Those preserved in 0.9% saline had significantly increased mean collagen fibril diameters and decreased diameter distributions. Subjectively, the corneas preserved in 5% glutaraldehyde and 10% formalin maintained their transparency but those in Triton X and 0.9% saline became opaque. Subjective morphological assessment of transmission electron microscope images of corneas supported the SAXS data. Workers using SAXS analysis to characterize collagen should be alerted to changes that can be introduced by common preservatives in which their samples may have been stored.
