Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The densities (ρ) of pure GILs, MeCN and their binary mixtures were experimentally determined in the temperature range from 283.15 to 333.15 K at an interval of 5 K, employing an Anton Paar DMA 5000M digital vibrating tube densimeter automatically thermostated within ±0.01 K at ambient pressure. The accuracy and precision of the densimeter were at ±0.000005 g cm−3, and the uncertainty of the measurements was estimated to be better than ±0.000001 g cm−3. Before each measurement, the densimeter was calibrated at 283.15 K, 288.15 K, 293.15 K, 298.15 K, 303.15 K, 308.15 K, 313.15 K, 318.15 K, 323.15 K, 328.15 K and 333.15 K with deionized water and dry air. To reduce the uncertainties in the density values, viscosity corrections needed for GILs with highly viscous liquids are automatically made by the densimeter. Each experimental density value is the average of three measurements at each temperature. The experimental densities of MeCN were compared with the available literature data21–25 (link) to confirm the procedure and reproducibility of our present measurements (see Table S1 in ESI).

All the chemicals used in this study were analytical grade. 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (C4mimTf2N) was procured from Shanghai Cheng Jie Chemical Co., LTD., China. N-Methylimidazole, 4-bromo-1-butanol, dibutyl phosphate, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTf2N), and other reagents were purchased from Aladdin Industrial Corporation. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectra were recorded on a Bruker Avance 400 MHz spectrometer. TGA was conducted on a TA 2950 instrument. The densities were determined using an Anton Paar DMA 5000 M oscillating tube density meter. The concentration of uranium was measured using an AttoM (Nu Instruments, Wreham, UK) high-resolution sector field inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (SF-ICP-MS).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The viscosity of the dope solution was determined using a rolling-ball viscometer (Model: Lovis 2000 M/ME, Anton Paar, Ashland, AL, USA). An amount of 100 μL sample solution was taken and put in a capillary tube with a metal ball and the sample viscosity was determined by considering the time taken for the ball to travel through the sample solution in the capillary tube.
The density of the dope solution was determined using a digital density meter (Model: DMA 5000 M, Anton Paar) with an oscillating capillary U-tube. The measurement of density is based on the frequency of oscillation. An amount of 1 mL sample solution is filled into a U-shaped oscillating capillary tube. The density meter is set in connection with the rolling ball viscometer. For the determination of viscosity and density, PC/DCM dope solutions with 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 17, 19 and 21 wt % polymer concentrations and PC/NMP solutions with 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18 wt % polymer concentrations were used. The same sample solutions were also analyzed for the refractive index using a refractometer (RX5000α, Atago, Washington, DC, USA). The refractometer was first calibrated with distilled water of known refractive index. About 2–3 mL of the sample solution was drawn and put in the sample cone of the refractometer.

Lipid Molecular Volume Determination

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Samples for densitometry were prepared by dispensing SM stock solution in chloroform/methanol (98/2 v/v) into a clean, preweighed glass vial. Bulk solvent was then removed with a nitrogen stream and gentle heating, followed by overnight vacuum pumping at room temperature. The vial was then weighed, and the lipid mass (20–40 mg) was calculated to within 0.1 mg. H2O (1.5 mL) was added to the vial and the weight recorded to within 0.1 mg. The sample was hydrated at 60 °C for 2 h with intermittent brief sonication in a Bransonic 5510 ultrasonic bath (Emerson, St. Louis, MO) to disperse the lipid. Density measurements were performed with an Anton Parr (Ashland, VA) DMA 5000 M vibrating tube density meter. Lipid molecular volume VL was calculated using the relationship:25 (link) VL=ML0.6022ρS[1+mWmS(1ρSρW)],
where ML is the molar mass of the lipid, ρS and ρW are the measured densities of the sample and H2O, respectively, mS is the mass of the dry lipid, and mW is the mass of H2O added to the dry lipid. Densitometry data for PSM and SSM are shown in Fig. S5.

The density measurements for partial specific volume determination were carried out in a density meter (DMA 5000M, Anton Paar, Graz, Austria) according to the classical procedure of Kratky et al.

Pretreatment Fluid Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Density
and viscosity of the pretreatment fluids were simultaneously determined
in an Anton Paar DMA 5000 M oscillating U-tube density meter with
an Anton Paar LOVIS 2000 ME microviscometer module attached based
on the rolling ball principle. The density meter chamber has two integrated
Pt 100 platinum thermometers together with Peltier elements for the
precise thermostating of the sample (temperature accuracy: 0.01 °C)
and performs an automatic correction of viscosity-related errors over
the full viscosity range. Uncertainty of the density values obtained
was estimated to be 1 × 10–5 g/cm3. The capillary of the microviscometer module, located into a temperature-controlled
block (temperature accuracy: 0.02 °C), was adjusted with a certified
viscosity standard fluid by Anton Paar. The dynamic viscosity values
thus obtained are accurate to within 0.5%.

Densitometry data were obtained on samples having a total 10 mg/mL lipid concentration using the Density and Sound Velocity Meter: DMA 5000 M from Anton-Paar (Ashland, Virginia) at the Partnership for Soft Condensed Matter (PSCM) in Grenoble, France. Three samples were measured by cooling: dDPPC, DLPC and 1:1 dDPPC:DLPC. The lipid samples consisted of multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) in H2O, which had been incubated and gently rocked overnight at 40 °C. The samples were loaded at room temperature, and densitometry data were taken from 50 °C down to 5 °C in steps of 1 °C.

Characterization of Solvent Properties

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Both water and the water-trehalose solution used to prepare microgel suspensions were characterized by density, viscosity and refractive index, over the temperature range of DLS measurements.
For the water-trehalose solution, the kinematic viscosity ν was measured with a micro-Ubbelhode viscosimeter, the mass density ρ with an Anton Paar DMA 5000 M densitometer, and the dynamic viscosity η was calculated as η = ρν. At any temperature, the refractive index n D is related to ρ by the Lorentz-Lorenz equation,
, where the specific refractivity r is rather temperature-independent. The value of r was obtained at 298.3 K from n D = 1.368, measured with a NAR-1T Liquid Abbe refractometer, and ρ = 1.098643 g cm -3 , independently measured.
For pure water, mass density, refractive index, and viscosity data as a function of temperature are available from the literature. We used ρ and n D taken from ref. [40] (link), after having verified the agreement with the measured value at one reference temperature. Measurements of ν were repeated, providing values of η in perfect agreement with the literature ones [41] (link). The temperature dependence of ρ, η and n D for the two solvent media is shown in Fig. S1.

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.
