'''Prepared PVOH films in water:'''
* Prepare more microsphere samples expanding upon new previous method developed (new modifications)
* In 10mL beaker, weigh out ~ 0.5 grams PVOH (MW 130,000)  
'''(Actual Mass = 0.4934g)'''
* Then, using a graduated cylinder add ~ 3 mL H<sub>2</sub>O to the beaker
* In another 10mL beaker, weigh out ~ 1.0 gram PVOH (MW 130,000)
'''(Actual Mass = 0.9965g)'''
* Then, using a graduated cylinder add ~ 5 mL H<sub>2</sub>O to the beaker


'''Standard PVOH Film Protocol:'''
==PVOH 130K Prepared Microsphere Samples & Dye Preparations 2==
* After adding and combining PVOH (MW 130,000) in small beakers with H<sub>2</sub>O, add stir bars and prepare to stir solution.
'''RECALL MICROSPHERE PREPARATION PROTOCOL ON 2/20/13'''
* On hot plate, stir and heat both beaker solutions at 70-80°C for ~ 12 min or until PVOH dissolves.
* Once PVOH solids thoroughly dissolve in solution, pour each solution in a Teflon dish to sit, cool, and dry in a fume hood for ~ 1 day.


'''Notes:'''
'''1μM Rhodamine 6G Dye Concentration (90:10)'''
* An additional 2-3 mL H<sub>2</sub>O was added to each solution to aid the dissolving of the PVOH
  M<sub>1</sub>V<sub>1</sub> = M<sub>2</sub>V<sub>2</sub>
* Heat was reduced when solutions began to boil too rapidly
  1μM (RG6)x 10mL = (92μM)V<sub>2</sub>    V<sub>2</sub> = 109μL
* While transferring solutions to Teflon dishes, loss of sample within the small beakers (sample loss = incomplete sample transfer)


'''1μM Rhodamine 6G Dye Concentration (50:50)'''
  M<sub>1</sub>V<sub>1</sub> = M<sub>2</sub>V<sub>2</sub>
  1μM (RG6)x 10mL = (165μM)V<sub>2</sub>    V<sub>2</sub> = 61μL

__NOTOC__
==Notes==
* Originally, samples were being prepared on a 0.1 gram scale; however, since then samples were divided into 1/4. New modifications include:
  # 50:50 clay vs. PVOH samples, the max amount being used is 0.025 grams for each substance
  # 90:10 clay vs. PVOH samples, the max amount being used is 0.01 grams clay and 0.04 grams PVOH
 
* Based upon new sample modifications using 1/4 the original ratio, microsphere samples have began to form actual smaller microspheres rather than microgels or connected large clumps of spheres

Notes

  • Originally, samples were being prepared on a 0.1 gram scale; however, since then samples were divided into 1/4. New modifications include:
  # 50:50 clay vs. PVOH samples, the max amount being used is 0.025 grams for each substance
  # 90:10 clay vs. PVOH samples, the max amount being used is 0.01 grams clay and 0.04 grams PVOH
  • Based upon new sample modifications using 1/4 the original ratio, microsphere samples have began to form actual smaller microspheres rather than microgels or connected large clumps of spheres
