Structural analysis of dissolved dendrimers with SANS and SAXS

Structural analysis of dissolved dendrimers with SANS and SAXS 

The principal focus of interest has hitherto been on the group of flexible dendrimers, which embraces the major part of the dendrimers reported in the literature, also including the commercially available POPAM and PAMAM dendrimers having an aliphatic scaffold. In recent years valuable knowledge about the density profile, the three-dimensional structure, and the interactions of dendrimers in solution has been obtained with the aid of small-angle scattering techniques, as is apparent from the following overview.
