Polymer materials play an important role in various aspects of daily life such as automobile, information and communications. Their forms used are different depending on each use and the demanded functions are also different. Structural control in the nano region is important to the function of polymer materials, especially for nanocomposites and polymer films. For materials development, it is necessary to elucidate the mechanism of function expression, so precise structural analysis is required. Structural analysis technology applying synchrotron radiation has developed rapidly in recent years due to the enhancement of domestic synchrotron radiation facility and it is also a powerful tool for polymer materials. In this paper, as an example of the structural analysis of polymer materials by synchrotron radiation, we show the application to end-modified styrene butadiene rubber for fuel-efficient tire and polyimide film for liquid crystal alignment film.
