anisotropic structuring under nonequilibrium fields.
Although anisotropic structure-property relationships have
been extensively explored theoretically, comparison to
experiments requires determination of the microstructural
orientation probability distribution function (OPDF) of
microstructural elements. Small angle scattering (SAS)
measurements encode information about the OPDF, but tools to
navigate this connection are incomplete. Here, we develop
and validate an explicit framework to link arbitrary OPDFs
to SAS measurements. Specifically, we propose, validate, and
apply a method, maximum a posteriori scattering inference
(MAPSI), whereby the OPDF may be obtained from SAS
measurements using a Bayesian estimation method. Using this
method, we obtain estimates of the full 3D OPDF for two
model semidilute fd-virus (rodlike) dispersions at
concentrations that are approximately equal to and twice the
overlap concentration. From the OPDF, we calculate its
second and fourth moments and compare these to predictions
for a dilute suspension of rigid rods and to a recent theory
for semidilute suspensions. Finally, we use both the
theoretical and measured moments to calculate the stress,
both for dilute and semidilute suspensions. These
predictions are not only compared to each other, but also to
measured values of the shear stress, and point to new
insights into the behavior of suspensions of highly
elongated particles in the transition between dilute and
semidilute behavior. We also use this new framework to
provide perspective on the connection between scalar
parameterizations of scattering and the OPDF that have
frequently been used in the past. The new tools developed in
this work provide an unprecedented path toward experimental
validation of dynamical theories of rodlike colloids and
polymers, and for measurement of nonequilibrium structures
and stresses of other complex fluids and soft materials with
SAS.},
