CuFeS₂ was previously synthesized in a planetary mill Pulverisette 6 (Fritsch, Idar-Oberstein, Germany) by milling of 1.73 g of elemental copper, 1.52 g iron and 1.75 g of sulphur. The milling was carried out at 550 rpm using a tungsten carbide milling chamber (250 mL in volume) and 50 balls (10 mm in diameter), composed of the same material, during 60 min in an argon atmosphere according to Equation (1) and the procedure described in [16 (link)].
CuFeS₂/TiO₂ nanocomposite in the molar ratio 1:4 (chosen based on the previous results [14 ,15 ]) was prepared by the co-milling of 1.824 g of previously synthesized CuFeS₂ and 3.176 g of commercial TiO₂. The co-milling of CuFeS₂ and TiO₂ was carried out in a planetary mill Pulverisette 6 (Fritsch, Idar-Oberstein, Germany) according to Equation (2) in an argon atmosphere for only 30 min. The 250 mL tungsten carbide milling chamber with 50 tungsten carbide balls (360 g), 10 mm in diameter, was used. The rotational speed of the planet carrier was 500 rpm. The ball-to-powder ratio was 72:1.
Preparation of the CuFeS₂/TiO₂ nanocomposite can be described by the subsequent reactions and is displayed in Figure 1:

Use of expired, banked human bone was approved by Northern Ostrobothnia Hospital District Ethical committee (statement 16/2009) and Valvira, National Supervisory Authority for Welfare and Health (Dnro 220/05.01.00.06/2009). The procedure to extract the tissue was conducted in accordance with guidelines approved by Northern Ostrobothnia Hospital District Ethical committee. Donors had given their informed written consent to use the material in academic research. Cortical human bone from three different donors was mechanically pre-ground to produce millimetre scale powder. The pre-processed bone was further milled in ethanol suspension with a planetary ball mill (Fritsch Pulverisette 6, Idar-Oberstein, Germany) to reach a particle size of 10–1000 nm, in order to produce a smooth and thin coating. Sedimentation in ethanol was used to isolate a 10–200 nm-sized fraction of particles for coating. The milling balls used were 2 mm diameter ZrO₂ particles from Retch (Haan, Germany). After milling the bone particle suspension was allowed settle for 15 min and the soluble fraction was removed. This fraction was further allowed to sediment for 2 h. After second sedimentation step the soluble fraction was taken out and allowed to sediment for 16 h. The third fraction of particles remaining in suspension was then removed and used for coating the selected surfaces.

Cubic BaSnF₄ was synthesized via
a ball-milling process using a planetary mill (Fritsch Pulverisette
6). Precursors (SnF₂, Sigma-Aldrich, 99%; BaF₂, Sigma-Aldrich 99.99%) were dried at 150 °C under vacuum
for 3 h and stored under Ar inert atmosphere. The desired amounts
of precursors were weighed and sealed in Zirconia milling jars in
an argon-filled glovebox, with a powder-to-ball ratio of 1:13. The
balls were 10 mm in diameter and made out of zirconia. The precursors
were then milled at 400 rotations/min for 12 h, divided into 24 cycles.
Each cycle consisted of 15 min of milling and 15 min of pause, which
prevented overheating.

The mechanosynthesis of Aurivillius Bi 4 Ti 2-x Mn x Fe 0.5 Nb 0.5 O 12 compounds with x = 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5 was achieved by the mechanical treatment of precursors in a high-energy planetary mill. Firstly, stoichiometric mixtures of analytical grade Bi 2 O 3 (Sigma-Aldrich, 99.9%), TiO 2 anatase (Cerac, 99.9%), MnO 2 (Merck, 85-90%), Fe 2 O 3 (Sigma-Aldrich, 99+%) and Nb 2 O 5 (Sigma-Aldrich, 99.9%) were thoroughly ground in an agate mortar and 4 g were placed in an 80 cm 3 tungsten carbide vessel along with five 20 mm diameter balls of the same material for mechanical treatment in a Fritsch Pulverisette 6 mill operating at 300 rpm. These conditions were recently shown to be adequate for the mechanosynthesis of Bi 4 Ti 3-2x Fe x Nb x O 12 compounds up to x = 1. 24 Cumulative cycles of 30 min milling and 10 min break were used, which prevented overheating and allowed small amounts of sample to be retrieved for monitoring the mixture evolution. The phases were monitored by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) with a Bruker AXS D8 Advance diffractometer. Patterns were

Adsorption Capacity of Quartz and Cristobalite

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols

The sample
of α-quartz was naturally collected from Guiding, Guizhou Province
of China, and the α-cristobalite sample was purchased from Veston
Silicon Co., Ltd. in Guiping County, Guangxi Province of China. To
acquire a relatively uniform average particle size, both samples were
ground with a planetary ball mill (FRITSCH Pulverisette 6, Germany)
for about 2 h. All of the powders were immersed in 0.01 M HCl solution
for 24 h and then rinsed with deionized water until they were free
from chloride ions. After drying, the samples were calcined in a muffle
furnace at 450 °C for 12 h. The specific surface area of samples
was determined by a Micromeritics ASAP 2020M specific surface area
and porosity analyzer. To compare well the surface property of α-quartz
and α-cristobalite, the adsorption capacity was all normalized
to the specific surface area of samples.
Reagent-grade crystal
violet (CV) (C₂₅H₃₀N₃Cl·3H₂O, purity ≥ 99.0%), from Tianjin Kemiou Chemical Reagent
Co., Ltd., was used to prepare all solutions for the adsorption experiments.
All solutions were prepared in deionized water, and the solution pH
was adjusted with standard acid (0.1 M HCl) and standard base (0.1
M NaOH) solutions.

The cured UPRs were cut into small pieces and then grinded into fine particles (<500 µm). Then the mixture of the cured UPR fine particles, transesterification catalyst (zinc acetate), and dipentaerythritol at different concentrations was dried in an oven overnight under vacuum and then poured into the ball mill tank (Fritsch pulverisette 6), purged with N₂, and finally ball milled for 60 min at a speed of 570 rpm into ultrafine powder mixture. The resultant ultrafine powder mixtures were compression molded at 200 °C and 5 MPa for 60 min in a mold made from stainless steel, to obtain vitrimerized samples. The same procedure was followed for additional reprocessing of the vitrimerized samples except that no catalyst and alcohol were added to the system during the ball milling.

For the synthesis of hematite (α-Fe₂O₃) and magnetite (Fe₃O₄) nanoparticles, the conventional top-down approach by using a high-energy ball mill (Fritsch Pulverisette 6) was chosen. The micro-meter-size powder of iron oxide samples was put into a vial. The 28 stainless steel balls of 9 mm diameter were utilized to grind the samples. The ball mill was operated at a speed of 300 rpm for 6 h with the ball to powder ratio (BPR) of 10:1. After every half an hour, the ball mill was paused for 15 min to avoid overheating. After 6 h, the sample was taken out, and a small quantity of the ball-milled powder was mixed with 2-propanol. The mixture of 2-propanol and powder sample (~1% by mass) was placed under an ultrasonic homogenizer (JY92-IIN) operating at a power of 400 W for 75 min at room temperature. After eight hours of break, ~35% of the mass was accumulated suspended as supernatant, and dried under a vacuum oven at 50 °C. The dried sample was then used further for the required characterizations. Figure S1 depicts the ball-milled samples of magnetite (Fe₃O₄) and hematite (α-Fe₂O₃) nanopowders.

The samples were milled (using a ball mill Pulverisette 6, Fritsch, Idar-Oberstein, Germany) and sieved (using a Modell AS 200 basic, Retsch, Haan, Germany) to a particle size <0.5 mm. The organosolv process was performed according to an earlier published procedure [34 (link),91 (link),92 (link),93 (link)]. All samples were prepared without using catalysts. Approximately 50 g Miscanthus x giganteus was passed through a 0.5 mm sieve and then mixed with 400 mL Ethanol (80% υ/υ). The mixture was heated at 170 °C for 90 min under continuous stirring in a Parr reactor with a Parr 4848 Reactor Controller. Afterwards, the Miscanthus biomass is vacuum filtrated and washed 5 times with 50 mL Ethanol (80% υ/υ). Three volumes of water and approximately 10 mL hydrochloric acid was added to the filtrate to precipitate the organosolv lignin, which was collected by centrifugation at 3500 rpm for 5 min and washed 3 times with distilled water. Lastly, the samples were freeze-dried for 72 h.
