The ICP-AES (Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry) is an analytical instrument used for the detection and quantification of trace elements in various sample types. It utilizes the principle of atomic emission spectroscopy to identify and measure the concentrations of elements present in a sample.

Monazite Leachate Analysis via ICP-AES and TEM

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The concentration of the elements in the monazite leachate was determined by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES, Shimadzu). The morphology, size, and elemental distribution of the intermediate and final product particles were observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM, MERLIN) and transmission electron microscopy (JEM-2100F TEM, JEOL) operated at 200 kV embedded with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). Crystal structure analysis was done with X-ray diffractometer (Rigaku MiniFlex) with Cu-Kα source, with radiation wavelength of 0.15418 nm. For intermediate products, TEM, TEM-EDS, and HRTEM characterizations were performed on JEM-2100F by JEOL Ltd. For TEM analysis, RE and Fe oxide particles were dispersed in ethanol. Magnetic properties were measured by physical property measurement system (PPMS, Evercool II–9T) in the vibrating sample magnetometer mode. JEOL JEM-ARM200F Cs-corrected TEM was used to obtain “High-angle annular dark-field imaging scanning transmission electron microscopy” (HAADF-STEM) and “Low-angle annular dark-field imaging scanning transmission electron microscopy” (LAADF-STEM) images.

The mixture of PSar106-block-PLLA32 in chloroform (1 mL, 1 µmol) and 100 µL of B cluster (10 µmol) in chloroform (or DMF) were added to a test tube and evaporated to form a polymer-B compound film. Then, 2.0 mL of DPBS was added and treated with a bath-type sonicator for 20 min, followed by conditioning the mixture with the PD-10 desalting column (GE Healthcare, Buckinghamshire, UK) and the nanoparticle-enriched eluate was collected. The eluate was then passed through a 0.22 µm syringe filter (Merck Millipore, Dublin, Ireland), followed by filtration at 0.1 µm (PALL Corporation, NY, USA) to exclude larger-sized and aggregated particles (Figure 1C). The B compounds loaded into the AB-Lac particles comprised o-carborane, m-carborane, p-carborane, diC1-Carb, diC6-Carb, or diC12-Carb. The loaded B amount in the particles was measured with ICP-AES (Shimadzu, Kyoto, Japan). The particle size distribution (PSD) and polydispersity index (PdI) of the AB-Lac particles were determined by taking 40 µL of sample solution into a disposable low volume cuvette (GmbH & Co. KG, Weinheim, Germany) and a Zetasizer (Nano ZSP; Malvern, Instruments, Malvern, UK) for 60 s equilibration time. The PSD and PdI data are represented as mean ± S.D.

Characterization of Magnetic Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
All TEM images were obtained using a JEOL EM-2010 microscope at an acceleration voltage of 200 kV. The samples for TEM studies were prepared by drying a drop of the suspension of the nanoparticles on a piece of the carbon-coated copper grid under ambient conditions. The X-ray diffraction pattern was taken by a Rigaku D/Max-2500 diffractometer system. The particle size was estimated by measuring the sizes of 200 particles from TEM images. Elemental analysis was performed by using inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES, Shimadzu, Japan). Magnetization measurements were performed on a Quantum Design MPMS 5XL SQUID magnetometer. MR imaging of the phantoms was performed under a standard head coil and by using a 1.5 T MR imager (Signa Excite; GE Medical Systems, Milwaukee, WI) to obtain the T2-axial images. The nitrogen adsorption and desorption isotherms were measured at 77 K using a Micromeritics ASAP 2000 Gas Adsorption Analyzer. Total surface areas and pore volumes were determined using the BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) equation and the single point method, respectively.

Microstructural and Magnetic Characterization

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The concentration of the elements in the leachate was determined by the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometer (ICP-AES, Shimadzu). Crystal structure and phases were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns using a Rigaku Diffractometer (XRD, Rigaku). The morphology, size, and elemental distribution were observed with field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM, Merlin), conventional transmission electron microscopy (TEM, JEM-2100F), and aberration-corrected TEM (ARM-200F) with energy- dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). TEM was operated at the accelerating voltage of 200 kV. Magnetic properties (M-H curves) of final product were measured by Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS, Evercool II–9T) in the vibrating sample magnetometer mode. LECO ON-736 analyzer was used to determine the oxygen content in (Nd-RE)2Fe14B.
Specimens for TEM were prepared by focused ion beam (FIB- NX2000, Hitachi) using the lift-out technique. For TEM measurement, the sample was treated as the same process reported by Kim et al.27 (link) and orientation of the sample along the required zone axis was confirmed by using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) by TEAM™ Pegasus, Ametek Co. Ltd. USA.

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.
