ForMAX is a new initiative at the MAX IV Laboratory, co-funded by industrial partners and private foundations, with the objective to advance research and development of new materials and specialty chemicals from the forest. The ForMAX instrument will combine small- and wide-angle x-ray scattering (SWAXS), scanning SWAXS imaging, and full-field microtomography for multi-scale structural characterization of hierarchical materials from sub-nm to mm length scales, with sufficient temporal resolution to facilitate in-situ studies of material processing. A special focus will be on fibrous materials. The ForMAX beamline is in construction phase and we expect first light in 2021.
