The IECP processes with and without catalyst
were analyzed using a TAQ500 TGA (TA Instruments) equipped with an
FT-IR spectrometer (Tensor-27, Bruker, Germany). The TG was combined
with the FT-IR spectrometer by a thermostatic tube of 200 °C.
Approximately 15 ± 0.1 mg of the sample was placed in an alumina
crucible and then heated to 850 °C with a heating rate of 30
°C/min in a nitrogen flow of 100 mL/min.

The crystal structure of the prepared materials was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD, XPERT- PRO- Analytical) with Cu Kα radiation (λ = 1.54 °A). The surface morphology was investigated by field-emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM-Zeiss SEM Ultra-60). The morphology of the samples was investigated using high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM, JOEL JEM-2100) operating at an accelerating voltage of 120 kV. The infrared (IR) spectra were recorded using a JASCO spectrometer (FTIR-6300 type A) in the range 400–4000 cm−1. The UV/Vis spectrophotometric measurements were made using a Shimadzu 2040 spectrophotometer. Raman measurements were performed using a micro-Raman microscope with an excitation laser beam wavelength of 325 nm. The weight loss of the samples was determined using TGA thermal analyzer (TA TGA-Q500) from room temperature to 800 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C/min in nitrogen atmosphere.

Comprehensive Characterization of Functionalized Magnetite Nanoparticles

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The phase purity and crystallinity of the pure Fe3O4, PVPylated Fe3O4 and TQ-PVP-Fe3O4 NPs were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD, model D5005D, Germany). The chemical structure, functional groups and thymoquinone loading on PVPylated Fe3O4 NPs were analysed by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy (FITR, Jasco Tensor 27, Japan). The surface micrograph of pure Fe3O4, PVPylated-Fe3O4 and TQ-PVP-Fe3O4 NPs were viewed using a field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM, Quanta-250 FEG, Germany) with line scanning using an energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDX, Bruker, Germany) and transmission electron microscope (TEM, JEOL JEM-1200, Japan). The surface charge of magnetic NPs was measured using a zeta potential analyzer (Nicomp Zetasizer 380ZLS, USA). The weight loss and thermal stabilities of the pure Fe3O4, PVPylated-Fe3O4 and TQ-PVP-Fe3O4 NPs were measured by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) under an oxygen gas flow (TA-TGA Q-500, TA Instrument, USA). A vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM, EV X model, USA) was used to measure the superparamagnetic behaviour of the pure Fe3O4 and drug-loaded Fe3O4 NPs at room temperature. The specific surface area, pore volume and pore size distribution of PVPylated Fe3O4 NPs were measured using a Brunner–Emmett–Teller surface area analyzer (BET, Microtarc, BELSORP-max, Japan).

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.
