Rapid internal bubble formation in a microwave heated polymer observed in real-time by x-ray scattering
Résumé
A combined study of small-angle and wide-angle X-rayscattering (SAXS/WAXS) of the melting of a nylon-6 sample by localized microwave radiation has shown that this method can reveal the presence of bubbles forming and disappearing rapidly in realtime in the interior of the sample due to its thermal decomposition.
