    Mechanical Properties of Hydroxyapatite Composites Reinforced With Hydroxyapatite Whiskers
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Şimşek, Deniz; Çiftçioğlu, Rukiye; Güden, Mustafa; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Harsa, Hayriye Şebnem
    Sintering and mechanical behavior of pure and hydroxyapatite (HA) whisker reinforced HA composites were investigated in this work. Pure and composite samples were prepared by using a commercial powder and whiskers prepared by molten salt synthesis. The dry-pressed samples were sintered in the 800 and 1300°C range. The effect of whisker-addition on the mechanical properties of HA was investigated through compression and hardness testing. Compressive strength and fracture strain were observed to increase by the addition of whiskers.

    Low Temperature Synthesis of Spinel Powders by Mechanical Grinding
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Yalamaç, Emre; Akkurt, Sedat; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin
    Low temperature synthesis of spinel powder via intense mechanical grinding was performed. A dramatic decrease in the synthesis temperatures of ground powders was achieved. We were able to produce partially crystallized spinel at room temperature via a 110 minute grinding. Characterization of the synthesized powders was performed using SEM, XRD and DTA. Each stage of synthesis was analyzed using these techniques. Mixtures of Mg(OH)2 and Al(OH) 3 were used for synthesis. Temperatures as low as 800°C were able to produce bumps in the XRD patterns of ground powders at the 2θ angles for spinel crystals.

    Preparation and Characterization of Nanocrystalline Titania
    (Türk Seramik Derneği, 2001) Çağlar, Özlem; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Güden, Mustafa
    Nanokristal seramikler, ileri seramiklerin gelecekteki uygulamalannda önemli etkileri olabilecek özgün kimyasal, fiziksel ve mekanik özelliklere sahiptir. Bu çalışmada, tItanyum; izopropoksit'ten titan seramikleri hazırlanması ve karakterizasyonu incelendi. Şekillendirilmiş yapılar 650-850 C aralığında hava ortamında sinterlendi. Sol-jel prosesi ve jellerin kontrollü kurutulması ile elde edilen seramiklerin yoğunluklan teorik yoğrunluğun %79-99' u olarak bulundu. Sollar, jeller ve çökertme yöntemleriyle hazırlanan tozlardan preslenen peletlerin sinterlerne işlemi öncesi ve sonrası yoğunlukları sırasıyla teorik yoğunluğun %40-52 ve %55-83' ü olarak bulundu.

    Preparation and Microstuructural Development of Nanocrystalline Titania and Alumina
    (Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Çağlar Duvarcı, Özlem; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Güden, Mustafa; Arıkut, G.
    The preparation of nanocrystalline titania and alumina was investigated by sol-gel methods using titanium isopropoxide, boehmite and aluminum isopropoxide. Various drying control chemical additives like oxalic acid, acetic acid and polyacrylic acid were used for modifying the drying behaviour and shrinkage of the gels. The sintered densities of the ceramics prepared by sol-gel processing and the dried gels were in the 79-99% of theoretical density for rutile. The green and sintered densities of the pellets prepared by uniaxial pressing of powders derived from sols, gels and precipitation techniques for titania were in the 40-52% and 55-83% respectively. The titania ceramics were observed to experience anatase-rutile phase transformation upon heat treatment at 650oC. The grain size of the sintered ceramics at 650oC was determined to be about 26 nm. Grain size of titania increased to 213 nm. at 850oC. The mechanical properties of these nanocrystalline ceramics were investigated by using microhardness testing.

    Effect of Strain Rate on the Compressive Mechanical Behavior of a Continuous Alumina Fiber Reinforced Ze41a Magnesium Alloy Based Composite
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Güden, Mustafa; Akil, Övünç; Taşdemirci, Alper; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Hall, Ian W.
    The compressive mechanical response of an FP™ continuous fiber (35 vol.%) Mg composite has been determined in the transverse and longitudinal directions at quasi-static and high strain rates. It was found that the composite in the transverse direction exhibited strain rate sensitivity of the flow stress and maximum stress within the studied strain-rate range of 1.3 × 10−4 to 1550 s−1. The failure strain in this direction, however, decreased with increasing strain rate. Microscopic observations on the failed samples have shown that the composite failed by shear banding along the diagonal axis, 45° to the loading axis. Twinning was observed in the deformed cross-sections of the samples particularly in and near the shear band region. The strain rate sensitivity of the fracture stress of the composite in transverse direction is attributed to the matrix strain rate sensitivity. In the longitudinal direction, the composite failed by kink formation at quasi-static strain rates, while kinking and splitting were observed at the high strain rates. The maximum stress in the longitudinal direction was, however, found to be strain rate insensitive within the strain rate regime of 1.3 × 10−4 to 500 s−1. In this direction, similar to transverse direction, twinning was observed in the highly deformed kink region. Several different reasons are proposed for the strain rate insensitive compressive strength in this direction.
