As received, HiPco tubes were treated at 250 °C in moist air for over 15 h, and then impurities were continuously removed using the Soxhlet extraction set up with 20.2% hydrochloric acid. After Soxhlet extraction, TGA in air showed 0.63 wt % residue. This corresponded to 0.4 wt % FeO based on iron oxide that was identified by the XPS analysis.
