Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Magnesium-Ion Battery Anode From Polymer-Derived Sioc Nanobeads(Wiley, 2023) Guo, Wuqi; Kober, Delf; Gurlo, Aleksander; Bekheet, Maged F.; İçin, Öykü; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfTin-containing silicon oxycarbide (SiOC/Sn) nanobeads are synthesized with different carbon/tin content and tested as electrodes for magnesium-ion batteries. The synthesized ceramics are characterized by thermogravimetric-mass spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman spectroscopy, N2 sorption analysis, scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray, and elemental analysis. Galvanostatic cycling tests, rate performance tests, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), cyclic voltammetry (CV) tests, and ex situ XRD measurements are conducted. Results of battery performance tests present a high capacity of 198.2 mAh g-1 after the first discharging and a reversible capacity of 144.5 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 500 mA g-1. Excellent rate performance efficiency of 85.2% is achieved. Battery performances in this research are influenced by surface area, and tin contentof the SiOC/Sn nanobeads. EIS, CV tests, and ex situ XRD measurements reveal that higher surface area contributes to higher capacity by providing more accessible Mg2+ ion storage sites and higher rate capability by improving the diffusion process. Higher Sn content increases battery capacity through reversible Mg-Mg2Sn-Mg alloying/dealloying process and improves the rate performances by increasing electrical conductivity. Besides, SiOC advances cycling stability by preventing electrode collapse and enhances the capacity due to higher surface capacitive effects. SiOC nanobeads containing Sn nanoparticles are synthesized and tested as anode for magnesium-ion batteries. The anodes show high performance with reversible capacity of 144.5 mAh g-1 after 100 cycles at 500 mA g-1 and excellent rate performance efficiency of 85.2% from 50 to 500 mA g-1.imageArticle Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Design and Performance Comparison of Polymer-Derived Ceramic Ambigels and Aerogels(American Chemical Society, 2023) Soraru, Gian Domenico; İçin, Öykü; Semerci, Tuğçe; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfThis work reports the synthesis and characterization of preceramic-and polymer-derived SiOC aerogels obtained from a commercial siloxane resin. The preceramic aerogels were obtained by ambient pressure drying (ambigels) and CO2 supercritical drying. Despite different drying processes, the final ceramic ambi/aerogels have very similar microstructural features in density, porosity, pore size, and specific surface area. Both materials have shown promising results for oil sorption and water cleaning. Supercritically dried-SiOC aerogel had low thermal conductivity with 0.046 W.m(-1).K-1 at RT and 0.073 W.m(-1).K-1 at 500 degrees C. These results suggest that substituting the rather complicated and expensive CO2-SC drying with the more friendly and cheap ambient pressure drying can be done without having to accept significant microstructural/property degradation.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Formation of Monolithic Srtio3-Tio2 Ceramic Heterostructures by Reactive Hydrothermal Sintering(Elsevier, 2023) Karacasulu, Levent; Kartal, Uğur; İçin, Öykü; Bortolotti, Mauro; Biesuz, Mattia; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfIn a one-pot approach, monolithic SrTiO3-TiO2 ceramic heterostructures were obtained using the reactive hydrothermal liquid phase densification (rHLPD). Structural, morphological, and photocatalytic properties of the obtained ceramics were analyzed. The relative density of the formed components reached about 80% with reaction time, temperature, and NaOH concentration variation. It was observed via Rietveld refinement that there was no XRD detectable phase other than TiO2 and SrTiO3 in the final structure. The monolithic SrTiO3-TiO2 ceramics obtained by hydrothermal reaction at 120 °C for 24 h in 1 M NaOH concentration showed a dielectric constant being around 500, and the dielectric loss was below 0.25 at frequencies higher than 10 kHz. The SrTiO3-TiO2 heterostructured monoliths having only 20 vol% total porosity and low specific surface area, demonstrated ∼60% efficiency (in 5 h) in degrading Methylene Blue photo-catalytically. © 2023 Elsevier LtdArticle Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 2Targeted Multidrug Delivery Systems To Kill Antibiotic-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus(Editions de Sante, 2023) Özalp, Veli Cengiz; Ucak, Samet; Dursun, Ali D.; Sudağıdan, Mert; İçin, Öykü; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf; Henning, Laura M.; Simon, Ulla; Gurlo, AleksanderDifferent ordered mesoporous silica (OMS) nanoparticles, ranging from regular COK-12 to COK-12 modified in terms of pore shape and size, have been employed as standard drug carriers for the controlled adsorption and release of drug molecules in comparison to well-known OMS SBA-15 and MCM-41. The cytotoxicity analysis demonstrated that regular COK-12 particles were less harmful to mammalian cultured cells, causing lower apoptosis induction than modified COK-12, MCM-41, and SBA-15 particles. Thus, regular COK-12 was further used to prepare a dual antibiotic-loaded drug delivery material, followed by surface functionalization with Staphylococcus aureus-specific aptamers for targeting. The results demonstrated that the joint loading of lysozyme and vancomycin in regular COK-12 improved the ability of the antibiotic treatments to kill methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus strains via aptamer targeting. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values decreased 4.1-fold and 12-fold compared to the non-targeted use of the antimicrobial agents in homogeneous solutions for vancomycin and lysozyme, respectively, clearly demonstrating the high potential of COK-12 to be used as a carrier in multidrug therapy. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 12Dye Removal by Polymer Derived Ceramic Nanobeads(Elsevier, 2021) İçin, Öykü; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar VakıfEmulsion processed polymer derived ceramic (PDC) nanobeads are used for Methylene Blue dye removal from aqueous solutions. The PDC nanobeads, produced at 600 degrees C and 1200 degrees C pyrolysis, are subsequently coated with titania (anatase). Titania-coated nanobeads show less than 35%, i.e., limited dye adsorption capability in dark. Instead, enhanced total removal efficiency (similar to 97%) is obtained when the initial adsorption is succeeded by photodegradation under UV. Direct reusability tests show that even after the third cycle, very high regeneration efficiencies being above 92% are observed for titania-coated nanobeads.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Investigations of Flame Retardant Properties of Zinc Borate Accompanying With Huntite and Hydromagnesite in Polymer Composites(Polish Mineral Engineering Society, 2020) Atay, Hüsnügül Yılmaz; İçin, Öykü; Kuru, BuketFires have been a danger to human beings for the centuries. As people lost their lives and property in fires, they tried to fight the fire and their efforts in this area continued increasingly. Unfortunately, it is still not possible to completely reset the risk of starting the fire. But it seems likely to extinguish immediately after the fire has started, and this is very important to save people's lives. Scientists have been working in this field in recent years; they are concentrated on producing fire-resistant materials using different materials. This can be provided by different ways; either fire-resistant material can be produced new, or the fire resistivity can be provided by incorporating the additive material into a flammable material. In our previous studies, we used huntite and hydromagnesite minerals to give fire resistance property to polymer materials, very successful results were obtained. In this study, huntite and hydromagnesite minerals were used for accompanying with zinc borate in polypropylene composites in order to increase the flame retardant property of a polymeric materials. Different content of minerals were blended with polypropylene, and composites were produced by twin-screw extruder for observing synergistic effect. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analyses were conducted to determine the structural and morphological properties of the composites. Thermal properties were determined according to thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Tensile and three point bending tests were carried out to obtain mechanical properties. Flame retardant performance was evaluated according to UL 94 vertically flammability test. It was concluded that very good synergistic effects were obtained that zinc borate was significantly influential with huntite/hydromagnesite in the flammability characteristics of composites because higher char formation is observed with zinc borate addtion. Moreover, the zinc borate reduced the smoke generated during combustion.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Manufacturing Radar-Absorbing Composite Materials by Using Magnetic Co-Doped Zinc Oxide Particles Synthesized by Sol-Gel(SAGE Publications Inc., 2020) Atay, Hüsnügül Yılmaz; İçin, ÖyküAn indicator of being a strong country in today's world is that they have powerful weapons. In this sector where science is used exceedingly, the "stealth" takes an important place. Radar-absorbing materials are used in stealth technology to disguise an object from radar detection, such that it can allow a plane to be perceived as a bird. In this study, Co-doped zinc oxide reinforced styrofoam sheet composites were manufactured as radar-absorbing materials. For this purpose, Co-doped zinc-ZnO particles were synthesized via the Sol-Gel method with doping concentrations of 0%, 3%, 6%, 9%, and 12%. They were embedded in a styrofoam matrix with different loading levels to see the concentration dependence. The as-prepared powders were characterized by using X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy. Magnetic characterization of samples was carried out using a vibrating sample magnetometer. Finally, the radar-absorbing test was applied with a network analyzer to achieve the main purpose of this research. It was concluded that Co-doped zinc oxide reinforced composites have electromagnetic properties that indicate potential applications in the radar-absorbing area.
