The periodic tricontinuous network structure (TNS) of symmetric isoprene (I)–styrene (S)–2-vinylpyridine (P) triblock copolymers has been studied by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). The observed SAXS profiles were compared with the calculated diffraction intensities based on the model electron density distributions constructed for a pair of surfaces parallel to the infinite periodic minimal surface. In the model, an imaginary minimal surface exists at the centre of the styrene labyrinth and both I/S and S/P interfaces are on the parallel surfaces, powder orientation of the model structure being assumed. The experimental SAXS patterns for the samples with different styrene volume fractions,i.e.0.48 and 0.66, which are the lower and higher extremes for tricontinuous network structure, are well explained by the model calculation for surfaces parallel to the Gyroid minimal surface.

We have directly observed the <i>in situ</i> self-assembly kinetics of polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) micelles by synchrotron time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering, equipped with a stopped-flow device that provides millisecond temporal resolution. This work has elucidated one general kinetic pathway for the process of PEC micelle formation, which provides useful physical insights for increasing our fundamental understanding of complexation and self-assembly dynamics driven by electrostatic interactions that occur on ultrafast timescales.

Porosity variations induced by swelling agent exchange were studied in a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. Standard methods were used in the characterization of copolymer porosity in the dry state and the results were compared with related structural parameters derived from small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) measurements as developed for the characterization of two-phase systems. The SAXS method was also used for porosity determination in swollen samples. The differences in the porosity of dry samples were found to be an effect of the drying process, while in the swollen state the sample swells and deswells isotropically.
