All chemicals, such as Li3PO4 (Chempur 99.99%), MnCO3 (Aldrich 99.99%), NH4H2PO4 (Chempur 99.99%), MnCl2 (99.999% Aldrich) and pure-MWCNTs were used as received without any further purification. The supporting electrolyte solution, 0.05 M phosphate buffer (PB) was prepared by using sodium phosphate (dibasic and monobasic, anhydrous; Sigma-Aldrich). The pH of PB solution was adjusted to neutral (pH-7) by using NaOH/H2SO4. The de-ionized (DI) water was used to prepare all electrolyte solutions for electrocatalytic studies. The samples such as Human serum (E48), and rat brain serum (C7) were acquired from Chang Gung University, Taiwan. The experimental protocols were carried out on approval of the Institutional Animal Ethics Committee.

Li1.2Ni0.2Mn0.6O2 was synthesized by wet chemical process as described briefly here. Nickel sulfate hexahydrate (NiSO4·6H2O), manganese sulfate monohydrate (MnSO4·H2O), sodium hydroxide (NaOH), and ammonium hydroxide (NH3·H2O) were used as the starting materials to prepare Ni0.25Mn0.75(OH)2 precursor. The precursor material was washed with hot water to remove residual sodium and sulfuric species, then filtered and dried inside a vacuum oven set at 80 °C for 24 h. Ni0.25Mn0.75(OH)2 was mixed well with Li2CO3 and then calcined at 900 C for 15 h to form the cathode materials. Detailed experimental set-up for the synthesis of the materials was reported in Wang et al.58 . A facile solid-state reaction method, which is easy to scale up for mass production, was adopted to synthesize the spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4. In detail, LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 was prepared by ball milling a mixture of Li2CO3, NiO and MnCO3 (all from Aldrich) in stoichiometric amount for 4 h followed by calcination at 900 °C for 24 h in air with the heating rate of 10 °C min−1 and cooling rate of 5 °C min−1.

Optimization of Calcium-Zinc-Manganese Phosphate

Ca9Zn1xMnxNa(PO4)7 with x = 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5, 0.7, and 1.0 (for short CZ1–xMxN) was synthesized by a standard solid-state method from stoichiometric mixtures of CaCO3, ZnO, NH4H2PO4, MnCO3, and Na2CO3 reagents purchased from Sigma-Aldrich [6 (link)]. Firstly, the reagents with a chemical purity of 99.9% were heat-treated to remove possible moisture impurities. Moreover, this was performed to reliably eliminate the possible admixtures and maximize purity of the raw materials. After that, the stoichiometric mixtures were heated to 1373 K and kept for 24 h in a reducing atmosphere of activated carbon to enable the reaction. Powder X-ray diffraction patterns of the synthesized powders were checked using the ICCD PDF-4 database to ensure the absence of all extraneous reflections of the initial or intermediate phases.

Li-rich layered oxides were prepared by using Li2CO3, Ni(OH)2, MnCO3, and RuO2 as precursors, which were purchased from Sigma Aldrich. Precursors at a stoichiometric ratio of Li: Ni: TM = 1.2:0.2:0.6 (TM = Mn, Ru) were first mixed on a Spex 8000 mill for 3 h, followed by a calcination process at a temperature of 950 °C for 15 h in air.

Synthesis of Trifluoroacetate Metal Complexes

All experiments were carried out under nitrogen atmosphere using standard Schlenk techniques. K2CO3 (99%), Cs2CO3 (99.9%), MnCO3 (99.9%), amorphous SiO2 (99.8%, surface area 175–225 m2 g−1), and anhydrous CF3COOH (99%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich and used as received. Double-distilled water was used throughout. Polycrystalline bi- and monometallic trifluoroacetates were synthesized via solvent evaporation.5 (link), 23 (link) The procedure for the preparation of phase-pure K4Mn2(tfa)8 and Cs3Mn2(tfa)7(tfaH) is described in detail elsewhere.5 (link) Monometallic trifluoroacetates KH(tfa)2 and CsH(tfa)2 were synthesized by dissolving the corresponding metal carbonate (1 mmol) in a mixture of 3 mL of tfaH and 3 mL of double-distilled water in a 50 mL two-neck round-bottom flask. A colorless transparent solution was thus obtained. The flask containing the reaction mixture was immersed in a sand bath and solvent evaporation took place at 65 °C for 48 h under a constant flow of dry nitrogen (140 mL min−1). The resulting white solids were stored in a nitrogen-filled glove box.

Synthesis of Na0.44Mn1-xCoxO2 Cathodes

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The samples
of Na0.44Mn1–xCoxO2 (x = 0, 0.01,
0.05) were synthesized by a simple solid-state reaction. Na2CO3 (Sigma, >99%), MnCO3 (Sigma, >99%),
and
Co3O4 (Sigma, >99%) raw materials were mixed
in a stoichiometric ratio. An extra 10 wt % NaCO2 was added
to the mixture to compensate for the loss of Na at high temperatures.
Raw powders were mixed by ball-milling for 1 h to obtain a homogeneous
mixture, then placed in an alumina boat and calcined at 300 °C
for 8 h. The mixtures were heated at 800 °C for 9 h to obtain
the final structure. All heat treatments were carried out in the air
atmosphere with a 5 °C/min heating rate and cooled uncontrolled
to room temperature. Due to the moisture sensitivity of the samples,
all samples were placed in a glovebox filled with argon after heat
treatment.

Mn(II) Oxidation Kinetics in Basal Media

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Glassware used in the kinetic experiments were acid washed with 3.7% HCl and combusted at 550 °C to eliminate residue metals and organic carbon. All cultures were incubated at 37 °C with shaking at 200 rpm.
The kinetic experiments were performed in 1 L flasks with 0.4 L of the basal media using commercial MnCO3 (Sigma-Aldrich) with a final content of 100 mM Mn(II) as determined using the ICP-MS method (below). The basal media contain either 1 mM NaNO3 (n=4) or 1 mM NH4Cl (n=5) as the N source. Each culture flask was inoculated with 5 ml of a Mn oxide slurry sampled from a flask of an active co-culture grown with 1 mM nitrate and 1 mM urea as the N source. Culture material was sampled from each flask daily for the first 36 days, followed by 3 final, well separated time points over the final 30 days. At each time point, culture flasks were removed from the shaking incubator and swirled. Immediately thereafter, a total of 3 ml of oxides and culture fluid mixture was aseptically sampled from the flask via 5 ml disposable pipette. Of this, 1 ml of the sample was saved at −80 °C for later ICP-MS analysis (below); 2 ml of the sample was centrifuged at 8000 × g for 5 min and the pellet was stored at −80 °C for later quantitative PCR analyses. DNA was extracted from the pellets and quantified as above.

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.
