Thermogravimetric analysis was used at first as an analytical tool of PPy carbonization. This was performed in 50 cm3·min−1 nitrogen flow at a heating rate of 10 °C·min−1 with a TGA 7 Thermogravimetric Analyzer (Perkin Elmer, Waltham, MA, USA). A comparative experiment in air has also been done.
In a preparative carbonization, 5 g of PPy nanotubes or globular PPy bases were heated in an inert nitrogen atmosphere to 650 °C in an electric oven. The selection of this particular temperature was made according previous experiments on polyaniline and PPy. In case of polyaniline it follows from the evolution of the infrared and Raman spectra that after carbonization at 650 °C, the G and D bands characteristic of a carbon material are well developed and the residue of the sample is close to 60 wt %. It has been proven also for nanotubular PPy derived carbon nanotubes [20 (link)]. When the carbonization temperature was lower, the carbonization was not complete. At higher temperatures, the yield of carbonized product is substantially reduced.
The heating was switched on, and the temperature increased at 10 °C·min−1 rate. After the target temperature was reached, the heating was switched off, and the residue was left to cool down in the flowing nitrogen stream.

Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns of UiO-66 nMOF were recorded on Rigaku R-Axis Spider with a Cu Kα source and an Oxford Instruments Cryostream Plus (80–500 K) over the range of 3–60° (2θ). Approximately 100 mg of UiO-66 samples were dried before PXRD analysis. Nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms were measured with a Quantachrome NOVA 4200e surface area and pore size analyzer at 77.35 K. UiO-66 nMOF was degassed in a vacuum at 50 °C overnight before measurements. Surface area and pore volume were calculated by the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) using the adsorption data. SEM was performed on a FEI Nova 200 Nanolab eletron microscope. The morphology of UiO-66 conjugates was also evaluated by JEM-1400Plus transmission electron microscope (JEOL USA, Peabody, MA) and Zetasizer Nano Z (Malvern Instruments, Westborough, MA). FT-IR spectrum was recorded in a Spectrum BX FTIR spectrometer (PerkinElmer) using the KBr method. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (1H NMR) were recorded by a Varian MR400 NMR spectrometer.

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.
