Outline of Final Research Achievements

It is expected that higher level information is obtainable in soft matter researches by complementary use of quantum beam such as neutron, synchrotron radiation (SR) X-ray and muon. We have studied (1) flow-induced polymer crystallization by neutron and SR X-ray small angle scattering to find small molecular weight component is included more in extended chain crystals than large molecular weight one. (2) glass transition distribution in polymer thin films using neutron reflectivity and low energy muon method, (3) dynamics of rubber including fillers using inelastic neutron scattering and muon spin relaxation method to find the motional slowing down due to the flowers.
