The crystalline structures of samples were performed by a powder X-ray diffraction (XRD; Bruker DAVINCI D8 ADVANCE). The surface morphology of the catalysts was revealed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM; Quanta 200, FEI, American). The microstructures of the samples were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM; Talos F200X, FEI Company, USA) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM). The corresponding elemental mapping of the sample was obtained on the TEM with an energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyser. The chemical state of the analysis of the elements was performed by an X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS; ESCALAB 250Xi, Thermo Fisher). The UV-vis absorption spectra were investigated by using ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance (DRS, Metash UV-8000). The recombination characteristics of photo-generated carriers of samples were collected by steady photoluminescence (PL) spectra on a spectrophotometer (Edinburgh FS5) under 365 nm excitation. The nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms of the samples were tested using a gas adsorption analyzer (Autosorb iQ2, Quantachrome sorptometer, Osaka, Japan). The specific surface areas and pore size distribution of the samples were obtained by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) method and the Barrett–Joyner–Halenda (BJH) method, respectively.

The MgFe-LDH (LDH) was prepared by separate nucleation and aging steps [35 (link)]. The Mg(NO3) 2·6H2O and Fe(NO3) 3·9H2O and the NaOH and Na2CO3 were separately dissolved in 100 mL of water. The two solutions were simultaneously added to a colloid mill rotating at 3000 rpm and mixed for 1 min. The resulting slurry was moved to a flask and aged at 80 °C for 24 h. The final precipitate was filtered and washed. The LDH was dried at 60 °C after being washed successively with water and ethanol. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the samples were obtained using a Bruker DAVINCI D8 ADVANCE diffractometer with a scan range of 5–75°.

We obtained transmission electron microscopy (TEM; Talos F200X G2, Thermo Fisher, USA) images to reveal the morphology of the NPs. We measured the hydration particle sizes and zeta potentials using a dynamic light scattering spectrometer (NanoZS, Malvern, UK). Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (Nicolet 6700, Thermo Fisher, USA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA 8000, PerkinElmer, Norwalk, CT, USA) were performed to analyze the surface-coating molecules. The X-ray diffractions of the nanoparticles were characterized following freeze-drying (D8 Advance Davinci, Bruker, Fremont, CA, USA).

Quantify Cement Crystalline Components

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In order to quantify the amount of crystalline non-hydrated cement components, powder X-ray diffraction measurements were performed. Corundum (α-alumina) was used as an internal standard. The samples for XRD measurements were prepared by grinding the cement material together with corundum by hand using a mortar and pestle. The measurements were performed at room temperature, with the diffraction angle 2θ between 10° and 75° on a Bruker D8 Advance DaVinci diffractometer with Bragg–Brentano geometry, using CuKα radiation (λ  =  1.54187 Å). The X-ray powder diffraction pattern was collected over the course of one hour.

To determine the crystalline state of untreated and SC-CO2-treated PKPI samples, XRD patterns were taken using an X-ray diffractometer (Model: D8 Advance DAVINCI, Bruker AXS Inc., Madison, WI, USA) by following the method outlined by Malik and Saini [34 (link)]. Diffractograms were recorded between 5–40° (2θ) at a rate of 3.2°/min with a step size of 0.0131°. The collected data were processed using XPert High Score plus software to determine the crystallinity.

Characterization of Synthesized Catalysts via Advanced Microscopy and Spectroscopy

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The morphology measurement of the synthesized catalysts was performed by SEM (GeminiSEM 300). HRTEM images, HAADF-STEM images, and STEM-EDS mapping images were obtained by an FEI Titan G2 microscope equipped with an aberration corrector for probe-forming lens and a Bruker SuperX energy dispersive spectrometer operated at 300 kV. The Pt contents in the catalysts were measured by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry. The XPS spectra of elementals were tested by a surface analysis system (ESCALAB250Xi). The phase and crystal information were obtained by Cu Kα radiation in an X-ray diffractometer (XRD, Bruker, D8 Advance Davinci). The EXAFS measurement of the PtSA-NiO/Ni, PtSA-NiO, and PtSA-NiO/Ni at the Pt L3-edge was performed at 1W1B station at the Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility. Data analysis and fitting were performed with Athena and Artemis in the Demeter package.

Some important properties of BC, PBC-2, and nZVI@PBC-20 were characterized. The surface and morphology of samples were observed by a scanning electron microscope (SEM, FEI Nova NanoSem 450, FEI, OR, USA). A transmission electron microscope (TEM, JEM-2100F, JEOL, Shizuoka, Japan) equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was selected for further morphology and elemental distribution tests.

The
solid addition method was used to determine the point of zero charge
(pHPZC) of AB.52 (link) Several 0.1
mol/L KNO3 solutions were adjusted at pH values between
2 and 8 by adding 0.1 HNO3 or NaOH. Each solution with
0.1 g of AB was placed in a sealed flask under constant stirring (150
rpm). After 48 h, the final pH was measured. The plot of ΔpH

AB characterization
was carried out before and after the adsorption experiments by SEM,
XRD, and solid-state 13C CP/MAS NMR. The morphology of
the biosorbent was evaluated by using a scanning electron microscope,
JEOL JSM-6400 (US). EDS microanalysis was conducted to identify the
elements in AB. The samples were weighed (0.2 g) and characterized
with an X-ray diffractometer, Bruker D8 Advance Da Vinci (USA), using
Cu Kα radiation at a step size of 0.03°. Nuclear magnetic
resonance analysis was performed using CP/MAS for 13C nuclei
in a 500 MHz spectrometer (Bruker, USA).

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.
