Filtration system

Manufactured by Merck Group
Sourced in United States

The Filtration system is a laboratory equipment designed to separate solid particles from a liquid or gaseous mixture. It uses a porous medium, such as a filter paper or membrane, to trap the solid particles while allowing the fluid to pass through. The core function of this system is to purify or clarify the fluid by removing unwanted contaminants, depending on the pore size of the filter.

Synthesis and Purification of MWNTs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The MWNTs were synthesized using a floating catalytic chemical vapor deposition process using ferrocene and ethylene as the transition metal and carbon precursors, respectively. After the synthesis, the MWNTs were submitted to a simple purification process by washing and filtering several times with isopropyl alcohol in a Millipore filtration system to remove any non-reacted ferrocene and other carbon impurities. After the cleaning process, the MWNTs were dried at 80 °C for 12 h.

All chemicals and solvents were purchased from commercial sources and used without further purification. Solvents were purified by standard procedures. The water was purified by a Millipore filtration system. All chemical reactions were detected by thin-layer chromatography under 254 nm (or 365 nm) UV lamp. 1H and 13C NMR spectra were recorded on a WIPM 400 spectrometer using tetramethylsilane (TMS) as the internal standard. High-resolution mass (HRMS) spectra were recorded on a Waters LCT Premier XE spectrometer using standard conditions (ESI, 70 eV). All absorption spectrums were measured on a UV-1800 UV visible spectrophotometer. All fluorescence spectra were measured on an FL-4500 fluorescence spectrometer.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
