Characterization of Thin Film Photocatalysts

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The thin film photocatalysts were characterized to determine the surface morphology by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) (Inspect S50, FEI, Czech Republic), Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) (Inspect S50, FEI, Czech Republic). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) (D/Max-2200, Rigaku, Japan) analysis was used to determine the crystal structures of each thin film photocatalysts. The potentiostat system (VersaSTAT3, Amedek, Ireland) was used with the linear sweep voltammetry experiments.

Comprehensive Characterization of ZrO2 NPs in Resins

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The complete and even of distribution of NPs within the resins was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM, FEI, Inspect S50, Brno, Czech Republic at 20 kV). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) (Nicolet 6700, FTIR spectrometer, Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, United States) was used to explore the bonding of the specimens prepared with various ZrO2NP concentrations (0 wt, 0.5 wt, 1 wt, 3 wt, and 5 wt.%). To obtain the FTIR spectra, the specimens were scanned between 4000 and 400 cm−1. The specimen preparations steps for SEM and FTIR analyses were detailed in our previous study [41 (link)].

Fracture Analysis via Stereomicroscopy and SEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Fracture analysis was firstly performed by means of a binocular stereomicroscope (Discovery V20, Carl Zeiss, Göttingen, Germany) for determination of the spatial relationships of the observed fracture features [33 ,34 ]. The fragments were then cleaned in an ultrasonic bath (Ultrasonic CD-4820, Shenzhen Codyson Electrical Ltd, Guangdong, China) with isopropyl alcohol for 10 min, dried, and coated by gold-sputtering (Emitech SC7620, Quorum Technologies Ltd, Laughton, UK). They were then analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (INSPECT S50, FEI, Brno, Czech Republic).

Structural Characterization of FMSP-nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The structure and morphology of FMSP-nanoparticles was examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) (FEI, INSPECT S50, Brno, Czech Republic), and the size of fluorescent submicron magnetic nanoparticle was measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) (FEI, MORGAGNE.268, Brno, Czech Republic). The TEM and SEM analyses were done at the Department of Biophysics, Institute for Research and Medical Consultations, Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, Dammam, Saudi Arabia.

Scanning Electron Microscopy of AXGL5 Films

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The surface morphologies of the AXGL5 and AXGL5D films were studied using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) (FEI, Inspect S50, Brno, Czech Republic). For this purpose, AX-GL film samples were fixed on the SEM metallic stub using double-sided adhesive tape. These samples were then coated with gold (Quorum, Q150R ES, Lewes, UK). The SEM was operated at an accelerating voltage of 20 KV, and micrographs were captured at different magnifications.

After bond testing, representative specimens derived from the separated glass-ceramic side of the assembly were dehydrated, sputter-coated with gold-palladium, and examined with a scanning electron microscope (SEM; Inspect S50, FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR, USA) operated at 15 kV.

Acid Corrosion Mitigation of 304 SS

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The specimens were immersed in 1.0 M, 1.5 M and 2.0 M H2SO4 solution with and without inhibitor (2000 mg/L) for one week at ambient temperature. Then, the specimens were washed with demineralized water and dried at room temperature. The morphological structure of the 304 SS surface was observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM; FEI Inspect S-50, Tokyo, Japan). Before observation, all specimens were sputtered with a 10 nm layer of gold.

Scanning Electron Microscopy Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Cross-sections and average thickness of the films were evaluated with a scanning electron microscope (In-spect™S50, FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR, USA) at room temperature since the internal structure of the composites was regarded as the most important for the multilayers assessment. Film samples were placed on adhesive tapes fixed to the surface of a special stand and gold sprayed. Different magnifications (1000×–5000×) were utilized.

Analyzing Rice Grain Chalkiness and Structure

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mature grains were harvested and naturally dried, then stored at room temperature. Grains of Nip and Olr were dehulled using a rice huller or manually. Then brown rice of Nip and Olr was ground into white rice (endosperms) using a rice polisher. The appearance quality of these white rice, including the percentage of endosperms with chalkiness and degree of endosperm chalkiness, was analyzed using a rice quality analyzer (TPMZ-A, Zhejiang Top Cloud-agri Technology Co., Ltd., Hangzhou, China).
Brown rice grains of Nip and Olr were transversely cut in the middle using a dissecting blade. Then the corresponding half-brown rice grains were mounted on stubs, and the transverse sections of these samples were first observed under a dissecting microscope (SMZ745T, Nikon, Tokyo, Japan). Then each of the same observed samples was mounted on a stub, and the transverse section was coated with gold and subsequently observed under an SEM (Inspect S50, FEI Company, Hillsboro, OR, USA) with an accelerating voltage of 20.00 kV. The transverse sections of the brown rice grains with or without chalkiness and the corresponding starch granules were observed and photographed under the SEM.

The nature of failure was examined by bare eye and SEM as described by Gad et al
22 (link)
and Qaw et al.
23 (link)
The morphology of the fractured surfaces of specimens was further examined using SEM (FEI; INSPECT S50, Czech Republic), where various magnifications were used to classify the nature of failure. Compact and smooth surface represents brittle fracture, while rough and jagged appearance represents ductile fracture mode.

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.
