SAXS/WAXS results help elucidate structure-function relationships in foams

Foams – gas trapped in solids or liquids – are common materials, found all around us. Liquid foams can be found in cosmetic formulations, home care products and food, whereas solid foams find use in mattresses, insulation and lightweight structures in automotive, space and aircraft applications. Solid foams are cellular…

Xeuss 2.0 HR SAXS/WAXS instrument at The Pennsylvania State University

The Materials Characterization lab at the Pennsylvania State University's Materials Research Institute recently purchased a Xeuss 2.0 HR SAXS/WAXS system equipped with a Pilatus3 200K detector and SWAXS module to replace their current X-ray scattering instrument installed ten years ago. The instrument will be used to expand the characterization capabilities…
