==Notes== | |||
* Clays previously prepared on 2/1/13 only exchanged for ~ 5 days rather than a week. | |||
* While attempting to filter the clays, due to vacuum filtration moving rather slowly during separation, clays only were filter for ~ 2.5 hours before actually being placed in the oven. | |||
* The temperature of the oven when the clays were placed in was ~ 90°C. | |||
