14、SO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical c

15、ommittee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electr

16、otechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the m

17、ember bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a technical committee may decide to publish other types of doc

18、ument: an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members of the parent committee casting a vote; an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) repres

22、le-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) are an allotropic form of carbon which exhibit unique mechanical, thermal and electronic properties respective to the geometric structure12345. SWCNTs can be synthesized by several different methods, including pulsed laser vaporization, arc discharge, high pressure

23、disproportionation of carbon monoxide, and chemical vapor deposition678. These processes often yield a heterogeneous mixture of SWCNTs and impurities, requiring post-synthesis purification. Commonly observed impurities include other forms of carbon e.g. fullerenes, amorphous carbon, graphitic carbon

24、 and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), as well as residual metallic catalyst nanoparticles. Purification can be accomplished using gaseous, chemical and/or thermal oxidation processes9101112. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is one of a number of techniques that can be used to assess impurity lev

25、els in as-produced and purified samples containing SWCNTs14 to 22. TGA measures changes in mass as a function of temperature and is widely used to assess reaction kinetics associated with structural decomposition, oxidation, corrosion, moisture adsorption/desorption, and gas evolution. By evaluating

26、 the reaction kinetics for a given sample, the relative fraction of different constituents present can be either quantitatively or qualitatively determined. For SWCNT-containing samples, TGA is typically used to quantify the level of non-volatile impurities present (e.g. metal catalyst particles). T

27、GA is also used to assess thermal stability (a measure of the type or types of carbon present). However, TGA alone cannot conclusively quantify the relative fractions of carbonaceous products within the material. Therefore, the information obtained from TGA is used to supplement information gathered

28、 from other analytical techniques in order to achieve an overall purity and quality assessment of a SWCNT-containing sample. Additional uses of TGA include process and quality control23and the characterization of MWCNTs2425262728and few-walled carbon nanotubes29. DD ISO/TS 11308:2011DD ISO/TS 11308:

29、2011TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION ISO/TS 11308:2011(E) ISO 2011 All rights reserved 1Nanotechnologies Characterization of single-wall carbon nanotubes using thermogravimetric analysis 1 Scope This Technical Specification provides guidelines for the characterization of SWCNT-containing samples by the use o

30、f TGA, performed in an air environment. Guidance is provided on purity assessment of SWCNT samples through a quantitative measure of the non-carbon impurity (i.e. metal catalyst) level within the material. In addition, this technique can provide a qualitative assessment of the thermal stability and

31、homogeneity of the SWCNT-containing sample. Additional characterization techniques are required to confirm the presence of SWCNTs and to verify the composition of the metallic impurities present. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this

36、ghts reserved3.5 monotypic material consisting of only one type of carbon nanomaterial NOTE A typical SWCNT sample is comprised of several types of carbon nanomaterials, including amorphous carbon, fullerenes, SWCNTs and MWCNTs. 3.6 purity measure of the fraction (percentage weight or mass fraction)

37、 of SWCNT within a given sample NOTE TGA alone cannot conclusively quantify the relative fractions of any and all carbonaceous products within the material. It can, however, quantify the level of non-volatile (i.e. metal catalyst) impurities, which is one measure of purity. 3.7 quality measure of th

38、e overall degree of excellence of SWCNT material, established by the level of impurities and the level of structural imperfections or defects to the crystal structure (structural integrity) NOTE 1 TGA can partly contribute to the quality assessment of SWCNT material by providing its residual weight

39、and oxidation temperature. NOTE 2 A SWCNT material may have a high purity level (i.e. a net mass fraction of 100%) but it may have a considerable amount of damage which can alter or destroy its physical properties, thereby deteriorating the quality of the SWCNT material. 4 Abbreviated terms TGA ther

43、TGA requires the precise measurements of weight, temperature and temperature change. The weight loss of a material is related to the composition of the material. Weight loss relative to an increase in temperature can result from the removal of absorbed moisture, solvent residues, chemically bound mo

44、ieties and/or decomposition of product. TGA alone cannot identify the volatile materials; however, if other analytical equipment such as a mass spectrometer or infrared spectrometer is employed, such information can be obtained. With respect to SWCNT materials, TGA cannot by itself identify the diff

45、erent carbon forms present within the material. However, it can provide a quantitative measure of the non-volatile products and the temperature at which the carbon species oxidize. 5.2 Exothermic and endothermic reactions Many materials can undergo transitions in which heat is absorbed or given off

46、without a change in weight. Such events will result in differences in temperature between the sample and a reference. Many TGA systems are equipped to operate in a DTA or DSC mode, which can provide information on these transitions. SWCNT-containing samples of particular morphologies have been obser

47、ved to undergo combustive reactions resulting in rapid burning of material, which may be catalyzed by residual metals. 6 Sampling 6.1 Sample pan selection Sample pan size and type will vary depending on the type of instrument being used. Other than equipment limitations, there is no restriction on t

48、he sample pan size so long as it is capable of accommodating the required amount of SWCNT material. Larger pan sizes can accommodate SWCNT without need for compaction, which is desirable but might not be accessible for all instruments. Either aluminium or platinum pans can be used under the experime

49、ntal temperature range. Aluminium pans are recommended since they are less likely to catalytically oxidize SWCNTs, which can lead to erroneous data. It is recommended that the pans be conditioned by prior heating to at least 1 000 C in an air environment in order to prevent errors due to oxidation of the pan material during sample analysis. 6.2 Sample size The type of SWCNTs (as-produced versus purified) is the controlling factor in the selection of sample size. As-produced materials can be more
