Liposomes
Small angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) is a unique technique for studying liposomes. It combines the following key characteristics:X-ray technique: SAXS is able to penetrate the outer surface and offers insights into the important internal structure of liposomes.Non-intrusive: SAXS does not require special sample (pre)-processing or treatment such as filtering, heating,…
SAXS vs DSC
What are the advantages and limitations of small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and how do they complement each other?

Cellulose nanocrystals under shear studied by SAXS
The structural evolution of cellulose nanocrystals under shear is monitored using two different SAXS set-ups In the last two decades, bio-based nanomaterials have attracted increasing research interest for applications in a multitude of industrial sectors. Moreover, with soaring oil prices and the rising consumer appeal toward sustainable products, market growth…
Shear alignment of Pluronic block copolymers
The structural evolution of P123 Pluronics was monitored and analyzed through shearSAXS measurements performed with the Xenocs Couette stage Poloxamers, also known under commercial names as Pluronics®, Synperonics® or Kolliphor® are a class of synthetic triblock copolymers that are composed of polyethylene oxide (PEO) and polypropylene oxide (PPO) blocks. They…
Shearing of clay minerals in suspension
Investigation of smectite suspension shear behavior through SAXS measurements performed with the Xenocs Couette stage Clay minerals are a group of hydrous aluminosilicate minerals that are commonly found in soils, sediments, and rocks. The most common types include kaolinite, illite, and smectite, each with its own distinct characteristics and uses.…
