FT-IR was performed on VERTEX70 (Bruker, Germany). XRD was carried out on an Empyrean diffractometer with Cu-Kα radiation (PANalytical B.V., Holland). 1H NMR was measured on Bruker 500 M (Bruker, Germany) with (methyl sulfoxide)-d6 as the solvent and tetramethylsilane (TMS) as the internal standard. Elemental analysis was determined by an Elementar Vario EL III (Elementar, Germany). TGA was carried out on a TGA/DSC3+ thermal analysis system (Mettler toledo, Switzerland). The morphology was obtained by a SU8010 SEM equipped with an EDS detector (HITACHI, Japan). UV–vis absorption spectra were recorded on a U-3900 spectrophotometer (HITACHI, Japan). XPS was carried out on a K-Alpha+ X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (Thermo fisher Scientific, America). ICP-OES analysis was carried out on ICP-OES 730 (Agilent, America). IC analysis was carried out on ICS-1100 (DIONEX, America).

Characterization of As-Synthesized Powdery Samples

The purity, crystalline nature, and microstructure of the as-synthesized powdery sample were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
For XRD analysis, an Empyrean diffractometer with Cu radiation from PANalytical (Almelo, The Netherlands), equipped with a hybrid monochromator for Cu and a PIXcel3D detector, was used. Scans were collected on the mildly ground powder, using Bragg–Brentano geometry between 5–80° diffraction angles, with 0.5° incidence angle, under step scan mode (0.04° scanning step size and 3 s acquisition time per scanning step).
TEM investigation was performed using the TecnaiTM G2 F30 S-TWIN high-resolution equipment from Thermo Fischer Scientific (former FEI, Hillsboro, OR, USA). Data collection was performed in transmission mode, with point and line resolutions of 2 Å and 1 Å, respectively. Before analysis, small amounts of the as-synthesized powdery sample were dispersed in ethanol under sonication for 15 min, then placed onto the carbon-coated copper grid and dried at RT.

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.
