Structural Evaluation of Complex Lamellar Phases in Alkyl Poly(Dimethyl Siloxane) PDMS: An Industrial Perspective

The aim of this webinar is to provide essential knowledge on the principles and application of Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) in order to sensitize and stimulate the minds of research scholars and faculties. This webinar will be focused on how different methodologies of X ray scattering and diffraction were leveraged to unravel the complex lamellar aggregation of tailor made oligomeric and polymeric building block assemblies. The X - Ray structural analysis were further correlated with AFM, FTIR and Calorimetric measurements to get a molecular insight.

Webinar will provide you technical insights into the following topics during this seminar:

·       Small Angle X-Ray Scattering: Getting acquainted with the scattering principle

·       Obtaining particle information and evaluation of scattering curve 

·       Correlation with other characterization techniques

·       Typical samples and applications in various research fields
