“…The sample structures were characterized via a FTIR system (FTIR-650, GANG DONG, China), X-ray diffractometer (SmartLab 9 kW, Rigaku Corporation, Japan), an elemental analyzer (UNICUBE, Elementar, Germany), a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA/DSC 3+, METTLER TOLEDO, Switzerland), a nanoparticle size analyzer (90Plus Zeta, Brookhaven, USA), and a Raman spectrometer (DXR2xi, Thermo Fisher, USA). Finally, the mechanical properties of carbonized nanofiber strips were tested via an XQ-1C tensile tester from Donghua University in China, as in our previous work. ,− …”
