Small-angle x-ray scattering from multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in polymeric matrix
Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) was measured from CNT-dispersed resins and the data was analyzed in terms of a core-shell cylinder model. The structural parameters obtained from SAXS perfectly agreed with those from the electron microscopic observations. However, we found that SAXS was rather insensitive to how CNTs were dispersed in the resins.
