I have been experimenting with determining the integrity of cross linked
polymers.  So far I have exposing my samples in an oxygen rich plasma etch
for 10 minutes then analyzing the sample in a SEM.  I think we are seeing
that examples of proper or "good" cross linked polymers show a grain of
structure of uniform size and orientation while the "bad" samples seem
to display a wide variation of grain size over a given area.  Is this a
viable method of analyzing such materials?  Can anyone add anything to
this?  I am not very familiar with such materials so consider me mostly
ignorant on this subject.  Any information (in simple terms) would be of
great help.

Thanks,
