Topic

What do we see in wood with X-ray and neutron scattering?

Presenter:

Dr Paavo Penttilä, Aalto University, FI

Summary

Wood and other renewable plant-based resources play an important role on our way to a sustainable future. The development of new applications from these abundant raw materials would greatly benefit from a more detailed understanding on their nanoscale structure. X-ray and neutron scattering methods are exceptionally suitable for such studies, because they allow nanoscale structural characterization of intact samples under various conditions. In this presentation, I will discuss what information scattering methods can provide from wood materials, concentrating especially on small-angle scattering and the effects of moisture.

Registration fee
