Testing Materials

  1. XRD
    1. 5 samples for XRD
      1. TiO2
      2. solvent cast ABS
      3. solvent cast 1% TiO2
      4. solvent cast 5% TiO2
      5. solvent cast 10% TiO2
    2. Running conditions
      1. Stationary sample holder
      2. Two theta from 3 to 90
      3. 0.02 A steps
  2. FTIR
    1. Took spectra of solvent cast samples
      1. 0%
      2. 1% (made yesterday)
      3. 1% (made 10./2014)
      4. 5% (made yesterday)
      5. 5% (made 10./2014)
  3. Photochemistry
    1. Used Doug's photochem setup
    2. Placed broken dog bones in vials with water
    3. Placed in photochem setup for 6 hours
    4. removed dog bones to dry over night

Making materials

  1. Using Doug's Compounder
  2. 0% sample
    1. Set temperature to 195 C
    2. Set motor to 80 rpm
    3. Added 12 g of cut solvent-cast polymer into the hopper
    4. After everything had been added for 5 minutes, opened the valve to extrude
    5. After extrusion, open the face and clean out all of the polymer
  3. Repeat process for 1%, 5%, and 10%
