Abstract
Associating soft matter such as surfactants, polymers, proteins, and liposomes, may form structures with dimensions not readily accessible by optical methods. Scattering methods can provide detailed information about the mechanism of associative phase separation including nucleation density, size, and shape. Ultra-small angle neutron scattering, a reciprocal space method, provides sensitivity to submicron to micron-scale structures in a non-invasive manner and described in the context of nucleation and growth of dilute droplets formed by a temperature jump into the meta-stable region of polyelectrolyte complex coacervates.Citation
