Very thin equatorial small-angle scattering of Cu Kα radiation is observed from metallic wires, glass fibres and hard elastic polypropylene which can be explained quantitatively as a refraction phenomenon if the excess refractive indices n = 1 - ![[epsilon]](/logos/entities/epsiv_rmgif.gif)
of the samples are smaller than unity. For Cu Kα radiation and SiO2 glass has a value of 7.2 × 10-6. The intensity Is of reflection within a total reflection angle δ = 3.8 × 10-3 = 13' is negligibly small compared with the intensity of refraction IB. In addition to refraction, diffraction by gaps and holes in strained polypropylene was observed. The scattering of 60 μm particles of Li-Ba silicate glass powders [Nau & Brückner (1971). Kolloid Z. Z. Polym. 244, 223-233] can be explained by transforming the observed scattering of spheres to cylinders yielding the refraction IB as calculated.
