Estimation of the molecular weight of nanoparticles using a single small-angle X-ray scattering measurement on a relative scale

Abstract Both small-angle scattering methods, X-rays (SAXS) and neutrons (SANS) rank among the methods that facilitate the determination of the molar mass of nanoparticles. Using this measure, aggregation or degradation processes are easy to follow. Mono- and multichain assemblies of nanoparticles i...
