Characterization of CT/GO Membrane Morphology

The pore size distribution of CT nanoparticles was evaluated using
the BJH method. A field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM,
Hitachi S-4800) instrument equipped with an X-ray energy-dispersive

was tested by dynamic light scattering analysis (zeta sizer 3000HSA)
at room temperature. The CT/GO membranes were examined by X-ray photoelectron
spectroscopy (XPS, PerkinElmer PHI 5000C) using Al Kα as the
X-ray source. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the produced membranes
were measured by an XRD analyzer with Cu Kα radiation (Rigacu

CT/GO membranes with varied CT loadings were investigated by a sessile
drop analysis system (CAM200, KSV). The reported WCA for each sample
in this study was the average value from three random locations on

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.
