Low Angle Electron Scattering from Carbonized Polymer Fibres

Nature volume 235, pages 437–438 (1972)Cite this article

Abstract

MANY observations have been made on carbon or “graphite” fibres by the technique of small angle X-ray scattering1–3. Valuable as these observations are for the investigation of mean scattering parameters from a bundle of fibres they cannot normally be made on single fibres, nor can they easily be correlated with microstructural features in the fibre. For these reasons the technique of low angle electron scattering, carried out in an electron microscope, was expected to be more useful for single fibre studies.
