Tapping-mode atomic force microscopy studies showed that as these hyperbranched PAA films became somewhat less smooth as they increased in thickness through successive grafting stages [24]. For example, a very smooth initial single-crystal Au(lll) surface with a root mean square (RMS) roughness of 0.2 nm (over a 2 xm x 2 im area) had its roughness increased to...

However, this subject continued to be a controversial matter. Some authors used atomic force microscopy (AFM) in tapping mode to prove the existence of a two-phase structure in epoxy networks this structures comprises a hard microgel phase and a dispersed phase of soft partially reacted material (Vanlandingham et al., 1999). However, the interpretation of this kind of experimental result seems still to depend very much on what one wants to find.
