“…This kind of TGA The XRD analysis was carried out to investigate the crystallinity of HKUST-1 as patterned in Figure 7a. Here, the XRD spectra show a similar peak pattern as that obtained by the previous studies [8,9,51,57]. In Figure 7a, the XRD spectrum of HKUST-1 synthesized under the optimum condition (blue line) exhibits ( 200), ( 220), ( 222), (400), and (420) planes located at 2θ = 6.5 • , 9.3 • , 11.4 • , 13.2 • , and 14.9 • , respectively, while the other spectra of HKUST-1 have peaks in a similar location.…”
