Fractal geometry of silica condensation polymers

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
;
The fractal dimension, D, of branched silica polymers is measured by small-angle x-ray scattering. D is independent of branching ratio and does not change during the course of polymerization to a gel.
