21. 2. The total weight of material recovered was 162 mg.
22. The elemental composition of the as-synthesized FePt particle materials was obtained by inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry. The samples were precipitated from hexane dispersions by adding ethanol and then drying. The analysis was performed at Galbraith Laboratories (Knoxville, TN).
