Demonstrating the complementary nature of SANS, SAXS and Wet-STEM on unfrozen samples

Micellar solutions can be used to treat wastewater containing cationic elements that need to be recovered either for valorisation or for immobilisation on solids in a decontamination process. The nanoobjects formed in such solutions can be characterized by SANS and SAXS, but also using Wet-Scanning Transmission Electron Microscopy (wet-STEM).
