A digital micrometer (QuantuMike IP 65, Mitutoyo, Japan) with an accuracy of 1 μm was used to measure the thickness of the film samples [40 (link)].
The mechanical properties were measured using an Instron Universal Testing Machine (Model 5565, Instron Engineering Corporation, Canton, MA, USA) following the standard ASTM method D 882-88. The machine was operated with an initial grip separation of 50 mm and a crosshead speed of 50 mm/min using a 500 N load cell [27 (link)].

SEM images were obtained using a Hitachi S-4200 microscope in a secondary electron image mode with accelerating voltages of 5–15 kV. The samples were dried and fractured in liquid nitrogen before SEM observations to obtain clean cut cross-sections. The flexural (bending) modulus of the samples was measured in a three-point bending mode using an Instron universal testing machine (model 5565).

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.
