Abstract:
Polymer materials are widely used in our lives with their outstanding performance, but their development is limited due to our lack of research tools.The new synchrotron radiation light sources may be the most effective means to reveal the structure and multi-scale dynamics of polymer formation and evolution, through techniques such as scattering absorption and imaging with high spatial, temporal and energy resolution. Based on the works of the authors and other collaborators,we present an introduction to the application of synchrotron radiation microscopy of polymer materials through specific examples. We hope that this article can play a role in attracting more colleagues in the polymer community to carry out research with synchrotron radiation.
