要旨:
Small-angle neutron and X-ray scattering are techniques, which are frequently used for studying the structure and interactions of block copolymer micelles. Recent developments of models for the analysis of small-angle scattering data are reviewed. The most recent models, based on Monte Carlo simulations, are able to provide information on shape, aggregation number, polydispersity, core size, core solvation, corona shape/size, and on the interactions between the chains in the corona.
