Synthesis of Metal-Containing Emulsions

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All chemicals were of analytical grade unless noted otherwise and used as received. Dichloroethane (DCE, 99.8%), tetrabutylammonium perchlorate (TBAP, 99%), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS, 99%), hexachloroplatinic acid, and iron (III) chloride were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich and used without further purification. Chromium (III) chloride, cobalt (II) chloride, manganese (II) chloride, vanadium (III) chloride, nickel (II) chloride, indium (III) chloride, cobalt (II) nitrate, nickel (II) nitrate, lanthanum (III) nitrate, iron (II) nitrate, platinum (IV) nitrate, and gadolinium (III) chloride were obtained from Fisher Scientific and used without further purification. Stock solutions (100–300 mM) of each metal were prepared in MilliQ water (>18 MΩ cm) and diluted as necessary to be used in the emulsion preparation. Metal salt solutions were stored in a dark refrigerator (4 ℃) to avoid photodecomposition. Metal salt compatibility was investigated to prevent competing reactions (Supplementary Table 4). Metal salts were analyzed by UV-vis spectroscopy to ensure no leakage into the DCE phase following sonication (Supplementary Fig. 20).

Chitosan Sulfonation Protocol

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The introduction of sulfonic acid groups was performed by a reaction between chitosan and chlorosulfonic acid (Sigma-Aldrich, Darmstadt, Germany). Adding 5 g of chitosan (Sigma-Aldrich) to 100 cm3 of dichloroethane (Sigma-Aldrich, the mixture was stirred for 1 h, at 25 °C. After this period, an appropriate amount of chlorosulfonic acid (0.004, 0.008, 0.015, 0.023 and 0.030 mol for the catalyst 1–CH–SO3H, 2–CH–SO3H, 3–CH–SO3H, 4–CH–SO3H, and 5–CH–SO3H, respectively) was added dropwise under stirring for 30 min in an ice-bath. The catalyst was then removed from the mixture by filtration. After this operation, the materials were washed with dichloroethane, and dried at room temperature.

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.
