<i>K</i>‑Index: A Descriptor, Predictor, and Correlator of Complex Nanomorphology to Other Material Properties by Tahereh Taghvaee (3906586)

“…Herewith, the θ-to-Π ratio is referred to as the <i>K</i>-index, and it was noticed that all polyurea samples of this study could be put in eight <i>K</i>-index groups with separate nanomorphologies ranging from caterpillar-like assemblies of nanoparticles, to thin nanofibers, to cocoon-like structures, to large bald microspheres. A first validation of the <i>K</i>-index as a morphology descriptor was based on compressing samples to different strains: it was observed that as the porosity decreases, the water-contact angle decreases proportionally, and thereby the <i>K</i>-index remains constant. …”
