“…22. Comparison of the IR absorbance spectra (without the background) of the SbSI ethanogel (a after (Starczewska et al, 2008)) and SbSI methanogel (a after (Starczewska et al, 2008)) heated to different temperatures: -as prepared, --dried in vacuum (10 -4 mbar) at T=353 K, ··· annealed in vacuum (10 -4 mbar) at T=393 K. Drying and annealing were performed during 8 hours. All spectra were recorded at 300 K Generally, in the case of SbSI nanowires sonochemically prepared in ethanol, the IR bands can be attributed to the vibrations inside the adsorbed C 2 H 5 OH molecules, C 2 H 5 O species, C 2 H 4 molecules, OH groups, and H 2 O molecules (Table 10).…”
