Scattering curves from CNovel and its mixture with a low content of TEC10V30E. (a) Scattering curve from CNovel MH00 in the absence of solvent. It exhibits a shoulder-like feature (arrow) at q-values slightly higher than those for TEC10V30E (see Fig. 3a), and it is analyzable by McSAS (inset). (b) Scattering curve from CNovel MH00dispersed in 50% TBE. Note that the shoulder-like feature is no longer observable. (c) Scattering curve from a mixture of TEC10V30E and CNovel MH00 (TEC = 15% by weight) in the absence of solvent. The shoulder-like feature is similar to that of CNovel alone (a). (d) Scattering curve from a mixture of TEC10V30E and CNovel MH00 (TEC = 15% by weight) dispersed in 50% TBE. The shoulder-like feature remains recognizable, but it is positioned at slightly higher q-values than in (a) and (c).
