Positron annihilation doppler broadening spectroscopy of carbon black and carbon black-filled rubber polymers by Semaan, Mars E.

“…This behavior can be understood as due to a combination of reduction in positronium formation as carbon black is added to the polymer, and the decrease in positron annihilation with valence electrons in the sample as the amount of carbon black-polymer links are increased. No effect on the S parameter is observed for sample mixing times longer than 45 seconds. …”
