An atomic force microscope operating in a contact mode can provide 5-1 5-nm atomic-scale images of a poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET ) film that allows the identification of what are believed to be phenyl groups and phenyl chains. Largescale, 5-1 5-mm images reveal the presence of raised surface f

## Abstract **Summary:** Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been applied to get molecular images of diblock poly(propylene)β__block__βpoly(ethyleneβ__co__βpropylene) copolymers deposited on mica from diluted solutions at elevated temperatures. Both isolated molecules and their small aggregates have
The aim of this study was to show that atomic force microscopy (AFM) can be used to obtain mechanistic and kinetic information about the process of moisture-induced surface crystallization of single particles of amorphous lactose. Completely amorphous lactose particles were prepared by spray-drying
