Mineralogical Analysis of TCC Material

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Mineralogical analysis was first carried out to determine the mineral components of the TCC material using an X-ray diffraction method. A powdered sample was prepared from the scrapings of the freshly exposed TCC surface, excluding visually-observable coarse particles from the sample blocks, and this was then ground with anhydrous ethanol (used as coolant and lubricant) in a McCrone micronizing mill (Verder Scientific Inc., Nwetown, PA, USA) for three minutes to obtain binder particles smaller than 45 μm in size.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) was conducted on the powdered sample, which had a random particle orientation, in a Siemens D-5000 diffractometer (Karlsruhe, Germany) using Cu-Kα radiation generated at 40 kV and 30 mA, using a scan range of 2°–70° (2θ, where θ is the diffraction angle). The scan used a 0.996° divergence slit, 0.501° scatter slit, and 0.1 mm receiving slit at a rotating speed of 1° 2θ/min and a step size of 0.02° 2θ. XRD patterns were analyzed both qualitatively and quantitatively. A computer program, Jade 9.0 (MDI, Livermore, CA, USA), was used to identify and match the XRD reflections, while semi-quantitative analysis was based on the methodology developed by Cook et al. [15 ], and an in-house computer program, XRDPhil (Philips electronic Co., Eindhoven, The Netherlands), was used to estimate the mass fractions of the major identified mineral phases.

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
For high-energy ball milling synthesis of (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3, all analytical grade K2CO3, Na2CO3, and Nb2O5, which were purchased from Aldrich (Germany), were dried at 200°C for 2 h prior to use in order to remove moisture. Stoichiometric mixtures of these raw materials were placed in a 125 mL stainless-steel vial of a Fritsch Pulverisette 6 planetary mill. The rotational speed was changed from 300 to 600 rpm. Different numbers of stainless-steel milling balls with diameters of 10 and 20 mm were used depending on the ball-to-powder weight ratio ranging from 25/1 to 40/1. For investigation of thermal decomposition of intermediate carbonate complex, as-milled samples synthesized at optimized conditions were calcined at temperatures ranging from 300 to 1000°C for 3 h. X-ray diffraction diagrams of obtained samples were recorded using Siemens D-5000 diffractometer (Siemens, Germany) with CuKα radiation. For the determination of lattice parameters, Si (Aldrich, Germany) was used as an internal standard. The synthesized samples were also characterized by field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM, Hitachi S 4800 microscope, Japan), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR, GX-Perkin-Elmer, USA), and thermal analysis (Setaram Labsys Evo thermal analyser, France).

The crystal structure of the as-prepared nanofibers was characterized using powder X-ray diffraction [XRD, Siemens D-5000 diffractometer with Cu–Kα irradiation (λ = 1.5406 Å)]. The microstructure of the samples was characterized using a HITACHI S4800 scanning electron microscope (SEM), a transmission electron microscope (TEM), and a high-resolution TEM operating at 200 kV. The samples were also analyzed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS, Surface Science Instruments S-probe spectrometer). The Raman spectrum was acquired at room temperature with excitation laser lines of 514 nm (Renishaw). Specific surface areas were measured using a Tristar II 3020 instrument by adsorption of nitrogen at 77 K. The pore diameter distribution of the mesopores was tested by nitrogen adsorption/desorption analysis (MicroActive ASAP 2460). The thermal gravimetric analysis was recorded on a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA, PerkinElmer, Diamond TG/DTA) with a heating rate of 10 °C min−1 in air from 30 to 800 °C.

Film structures were determined by x-ray diffraction (XRD) using a Siemens D5000 diffractometer operating with CuKα radiation at a wavelength of 0.154 nm. XRD analysis indicated amorphous structures. Elemental compositions and atomic concentrations were determined by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS) at the Uppsala Tandem Laboratory, specifically using 2 MeV 4He ions backscattered at an angle of 170 degrees. The RBS data were fitted to a model of the film–substrate system by use of the SIMNRA program24 . Film density ρ was ~5.5 g cm−3 as computed from
ρ=MNsnatomsNAd,
where M is molar mass, Ns is areal density of atoms, natoms is the number of atoms in a molecule, and NA is Avogadro’s constant.

XRPD diffractogram at 25˚C provided another piece of information for the identification and crystallinity of starting materials and co-crystals. Moreover, the powder diffraction patterns generated with the single-crystal data of compounds (I-V) using Mercury [20 (link)] matches accurately these experimental XRPD spectra measured using the D5000 powder diffractometer, thereby confirming the purity of the synthesized co-crystals. XRPD diffractograms were collected by SIEMENS D5000 DIFFRACTOMETER. The source of XRPD was CuKα (1.542 Å) and the diffractometer was operated at 40 kV and 30 mA. The X-ray was passed through a 1 mm slit and the signal a 1 mm slit, a nickel filter, and another 0.1 mm slit. The detector type was a scintillation counter. The scanning rate was set at 0.05° ranging from 5° to 35°. The quantity of sample used was around 20–30 mg.

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.
