By Linda C. Sawyer

Polymer Microscopy, 3rd variation, is a complete and useful advisor to the research of the microstructure of polymers, and is the results of the authors' a long time of educational and commercial event. to deal with the desires of scholars and execs from quite a few backgrounds, introductory chapters take care of the elemental options of either polymer morphology and processing and microscopy and imaging conception. The center of the ebook is extra utilized, with many examples of specimen practise and photo interpretation resulting in fabrics characterization. Microscopy is utilized to the characterization of quite a lot of polymer structures, together with fibers, movies, engineering resins and plastics, composites, nanocomposites, polymer blends, emulsions and liquid crystalline polymers. mild microscopy, atomic strength microscopy, and scanning and transmission electron microscopy innovations are all thought of, as are rising options equivalent to compositional mapping within which microscopy is mixed with spectroscopy. This commonly up-to-date and revised new version closes with an issue fixing advisor, which gives a scientific framework for picking out compatible methods to the characterization of polymer microstructure.

If the specimen is transparent and not coa ted, dark field in reflection allows observation of subsurface features and details that scatt er light. 2 Phase Contrast Thin sections of polymer blends can give bright field images with little or no contrast between the components. Transmitt ed light phase contrast converts the refractive index differences in such a specimen to light and dark image regions [1, 39, 18]. Small differences in thickness are also made more visible. Examples of tran smitted light and phase contrast images are described in Chapter 5 (see Fig.
