Identifying and mapping chemical bonding within phenolic resin using secondary electron hyperspectral imaging

Abstract

The distributions of methylene and ether bridges have been shown to impact the mechanical properties of phenolic resin. This work demonstrates the ability of the novel SEM based technique, secondary electron hyperspectral imaging (SEHI), to characterise and map methylene and ether bridges within phenolic resin at the nanoscale.
