Thermal Characterization of Ethyl Cellulose Films

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The thermal degradation of ethyl cellulose films was characterized using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA/DSC1, Mettler Toledo AG (MTANA), Zürich, Switzerland). The dried films (~ 20 mg) were placed on a ceramic pan and heated from 25 °C to 600 °C. The heating rate was 10 °C·min−1 using a furnace under a dry N2 purge of 50 mL·min−1. Differential scanning calorimetry (TGA/DSC1, Mettler Toledo AG (MTANA), Switzerland) was used to determine the glass transition (Tg) and melting (Tm) temperatures of the films.

Quantifying SiO2 Content in Hybrid Materials

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The amount of deposited SiO2 content was determined using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) using the TGA/DSC I from Mettler Toledo. Portions of a 119.9–121.4 mg (125.8 ± 3.1 mg) sample were weighed into a 900 µL alumina crucible, and thermal analysis was performed under synthetic air (50 mL/min). A heating rate of 5 K/min in a temperature range from 30 to 800 °C was performed. The relative mass of the remaining residue is the proportion of SiO2 to the mass of the hybrid material.

TGA measurements were carried out in order to investigate the thermal stability of polymeric micelles. Investigations were performed with a METTLER-Toledo TGA/DSC 1 (Mettler-Toledo GmbH, Gießen, Germany). Then, 5 ± 0.2-mg was measured into aluminum pans, closed and inserted into the furnace. The furnace was heated up from 25 °C to 275 °C with 10 °C/min heating rate and we measured the thermic changes in the sample. The results were evaluated using STARe Software.

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images were obtained by a high-resolution scanning electron microscope (JEOL, JSM-7401, JEOL Ltd., Akishima-shi, Japan) at 3.0 kV. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) experiments were performed on a high-resolution transmission electron microscope (JEOL, TEM, exited at 100 kV, JEOL Ltd., Akishima-shi, Japan) equipped with selected area electron diffraction (SAED). X-ray diffraction (XRD) was recorded on a Rigaku D/Max-RB diffractometer (Rigaku Corporation, Tokyo, Japan) with CuKα radiation at 40 kV and 120 mA. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was carried out using a thermogravimetric analyzer (METTLER TOLEDO, TGA/DSC-1, Mettler-Toledo GmbH, Switzerland) from 30°C to 600°C at a heating rate of 10°C min−1 in N2. Raman spectra were characterized by a JY Horiba Raman (Aramis, Horiba, Ltd., Minami-ku Kyoto, Japan) under 514-nm laser for the accumulation intensity of three-time scan.

The thermal stability of original MCC and regenerated celluloses was determined using a Mettler Toledo TGA/DSC1 thermogravimetric analyzer (Mettler-Toledo Ltd, Port Melbourne, Victoria, Australia). The samples (ca. 4 mg) were loaded into 70 μL alumina crucibles with a cap with a pinhole and heated from 30 °C to 750 °C at 10 °C/min under nitrogen environment. Each test was performed in triplicate.

Thermal Stability Evaluation of Polymers

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Thermogravimetric
analysis (TGA) experiments to evaluate the thermal stability of the
respective polymers both in air and N2 (flow rate of 50
mL/min) were performed using a Mettler Toledo DSC/TGA 1 equipped with
a water-cooling system. To capture the mass loss as a function of
temperature, a ∼4–10 mg polymer sample in 70 μL
alumina pans was heated from 25 to 700 °C at a ramp rate of 10
K/min. The temperature calibration for the onset and peak temperatures
of the degradation process was performed using the melting transitions
of indium and aluminum.

FTIR (Tensor II, Bruker, Germany) in a range of 4000 to 400 cm−1 was performed to assay the functional groups as well as the chemical and structural changes of the samples. TGA (DSC/TGA1, Mettler Toledo, Switzerland) was to study the thermostability of the samples. Hence, thermograms from 30 to 600 °C were plotted to evaluate the thermostability of the samples.

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.
