These studies are potentially important for spinal injury remediation. We would also like to exploit more fully our new multi-channel capillary system to determine under what conditions measurable alignment of CNT's may be achieved in a flowing system. This would have significant importance for high-level CNT applications where high-quality CNT dispersion and ordering or alignmewnt are required. equipment_required: USAXS flow cell with working microlab computer interface. experiment: USAXS Flow Cell Studies of Peptide Amphiphiles and Carbon Nanotube Alignment foreign_nationals: None hazards: Chemlab use for sample preparation and flow cell set-up will be required. Some use of solvents, acids, bases and surfactants, and sonication will be needed, but this should be within the envelope of previous flow cell experiments. instrument: 33ID-D USAXS instrument_other: minimumdays: 4 name: Andrew Allen nonmembers: K.
