Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Positron annihilation spectroscopy for chemical analysis (PASCA) has been developed to analyze the microstructure of polymers as discussed by the authors, where the positronium atom is trapped in the atomic-scale holes which have a size ranging from 1 to 10 A. Theoretical aspects, experimental developments, and examples in analyzing the microstructures of epoxy, PEEK, and PMMA polymers are presented.
