Objectives

  1. Run DSC on all of the prepared DSC clay samples.
  2. Run DSC on the previously prepared PVA-Lamp microspheres.
  3. Prepare another dye stock solution for PVA-clay microspheres to soak it.
  4. Allow the PVA-clay microspheres to absorb dye.
  5. Remove soaking hydrogels from water and allow then to absorb dye.
  6. Synthesize more PVA-clay microspheres.


Dye stock solution

  • As with the preparation of the PVA-clay hydrogels, Rhodamine 6G will be used as the dye. An internal concentration of 1μM dye will be used.
    • Because of the removal of all liquid from the microspheres, a 1μM stock solution will be prepared.
