X-ray scattering can provide a wealth of information about nanomaterials, including:
Particle Size: The size of nanoparticles can be determined by analyzing the intensity of the scattered X-rays. Shape and Morphology: The shape and surface features of nanomaterials can be inferred from the scattering pattern. Crystalline Structure: Information about the atomic arrangement within the nanoparticles can be obtained, which is essential for understanding their properties. Aggregation State: X-ray scattering can reveal whether nanoparticles are isolated, aggregated, or form complex networks.
