* Decant all microsphere samples prepared on [[User:Moira_M._Esson/Notebook/CHEM-581/2013/03 | * Decant all microsphere samples prepared on [[User:Moira_M._Esson/Notebook/CHEM-581/2013/03/20|2013/03/20]] and [[User:Moira_M._Esson/Notebook/CHEM-581/2013/03/22|2013/03/22]] | ||
* Rinse microsphere samples with hexanes and allow samples to completely dry. | |||

*A set of control microspheres will be prepared next time with only PVA MW:130,000 and PVA MW 146,000-186,000. These will be prepared on a 0.05g scale | |||
*A set control hydrogels will be prepared next time with only PVA MW 130,000 and PVA MW 146,000-186,000. These will be prepared on a 1g scale. | |||
*DSC will be run on all microsphere samples decanted and rinsed today. | |||
*X-ray diffraction will be run on all prepared microsphere samples in order to determine whether clay has agglomerated separately from the PVA. As a hydrophilic polymer, clay blends well and a peak shift below 10 degrees is a strong indicator of intercalation. | |||
