Commercial multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs, 15 ± 5 nm diameter, 1–5 μm length) were purchased from Nanolab, Inc. These CNTs were not subject to any explicit chemical treatment for functionalization. In-house CsH2PO4 was synthesized by dissolving stoichiometric quantities of Cs2CO3 and H3PO4 (85% assay) in deionized water, followed by a methanol-induced precipitation. The resulting precipitate was dried at 120 °C for 12 h. Untreated Toray carbon paper (TGP-H-120, Fuel Cell Earth, LLC.) was used as the current collector in electrochemical cells and as the substrate for electrospray deposition. Polyvinylpyrrolidone (Alfa Aesar, Mw ∼ 8000 g mol–1) and Nanosperse AQ (Nanolab, Inc.) were used as dispersants for suspending carbon nanotubes in aqueous solutions in the electrospray step. Scanning electron microscopy images were collected at the Department of Geological and Planetary Sciences at Caltech (ZEISS 1550VP FESEM) and at Northwestern University's Atomic and Nanoscale Characterization Experimental Center (Hitachi SU8030). Thermogravimetric analysis was conducted on Netzsch STA 449 C Jupiter and Netzsch STA 449 F3 Jupiter thermal analyzers. X-Ray powder diffraction was performed using a PANalytical X'Pert PW3040-PRO (Cu Kα). Raman spectra were collected with a Renishaw M1000 Micro Raman Spectrometer System, using a green laser at 514.5 nm.

X-ray diffraction (XRD) data were collected by a Bruker D8 Advance X-ray diffractometer with Cu Kα radiation at an acceleration voltage of 40 kV and a current density of 40 mA. The transmission electron microscopic (TEM) images were analysed by Tecnai G2 F20 TEM (200 kV). ICAP6300 was performed to gather the inductively coupled plasma–atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) results and confirm the actual metal loadings of the catalysts. NETZSCH STA 449F3 Jupiter was chosen to collect thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and derivative thermogravimetry (DTG) data and analyse carbon deposition on the catalyst. AUTOChem II 2920 was performed to collect NH3-TPD data and analyse the properties of supports. Before the test, the sample was purged under an inert atmosphere. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses were performed using an ESCA 3400 (Kratos Analytical Ltd, Manchester, UK).

The synthesized
BAILs and ester products were characterized by utilizing 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy with Bruker AVANCE 400 MHz
NMR instruments. All the NMR spectra were assigned using Bruker’s
Topspin (4.0.6) processing software. The Hammett acidity functions
of BAILs were determined using UV/vis spectroscopy (Cary 5000 UV–Vis–NIR
spectrophotometer). The attenuated total reflectance—FT-IR
spectroscopy (ATR–FT-IR) technique was used for the analysis
of functional groups before and after esterification of LA by a Bruker
Vertex 80v FT-IR spectrometer (vacuum bench) with a DTGS detector.
The thermal stability of BAILs were analyzed by thermogravimetric
analysis (TGA) by heating the samples under an Ar flow using a Netzsch
STA 449 F3 Jupiter” (STA) instrument. All samples were heated
from 25 to 500 °C with a heating rate of 10 °C min–1. The moisture contained in the BAILs was analyzed by Karl Fischer
titration using a KF-coulometer (Metrohm). A gas chromatography–flame
ionization detector (GC–FID) (Agilent 6890 N) equipped with
an HP-5 column was used for quantitative analysis of products.

A NETZSCH STA 449 F3 Jupiter differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) equipped with a data station was used for scanning the melting transitions of the samples in aluminum pans. The samples were heated from 25 to 200 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C min−1 under an argon flow (20 ml min−1). The degree of crystallization was calculated using eqn (1), as follows: where ΔHf is the melting enthalpy measured in the heating experiments and ΔHf0 is the theoretical value of enthalpy of 100% crystalline PP, which has a value of 207.1 J g−1.26 (link)X-ray diffraction patterns were collected by a Bruker D8 Discover apparatus (Bruker, Germany) with Cu Kα as the radiation source (λ = 1.5418 Å). It was operated at 40 kV and 40 mA and the scanning range was 10–50° at a scanning rate of 2° min−1.
The hollow structure and particle size of MSs were visualized using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) with 200 kV field emission (Tecnai G2 F20 S-TWIN, USA). For TEM imaging, particle dispersions diluted in ethanol were deposited on the carbon side of a carbon/copper grid.
The morphology of the PP/MS foams was examined using a scanning electron microscope (SEM; Zeiss MERLIN Compact 14184, Germany). Samples were immersed in liquid nitrogen for 2 min, fractured, and mounted on stubs. They were then sputter-coated with gold to prevent charging during the test.

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.
