Article Effects of Span 60 Template and Freeze Drying on Zinc Borate Produced From Zinc Nitrate Hexahydrate and Borax Decahydrate(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2022) Alp, Burcu; Gönen, Mehmet; Atakul Savrık, Sevdiye; Balköse, DevrimZinc borate is an important additive to polymers and lubricants. The process variables such as reactant concentration, presence of template in precipitating medium and drying method determine the composition and particle size of zinc borates. In the present study, zinc borate precipitate obtained by mixing aqueous zinc nitrate and borax decahydrate solutions was dried either by conventional method or by freeze drying. The products were well characterized by advanced methods. Zinc borate from 1 mol dm(-3) reactants had (2.1 +/- 0.5)x(2.5 +/- 0.5)x(1.3 +/- 0.2) mu m and (0.5 +/- 0.1)x(1.3 +/- 0.1)x(0.028 +/- 0.01) mu m dimensions by conventional and freeze drying respectively. Individual particles smaller in size is obtained since the particles are not agglomerated due to absence of surface tension of liquid water for case of freeze drying. Planar particles agglomerated into 20 to 60 mu m crystals in the presence of template Span 60 in 1 mol dm(-3) reactants for conventional drying. Nano zinc borate particles with primary particle size of (46 +/- 9) nm were obtained by decreasing the reactant concentration to 0.1 mol dm(-3). The primary particle size was decreased to (40 +/- 3) nm by addition of Span 60 to dilute solutions. However zinc borate nanoparticles obtained from dilute solutions adhered to each other forming agglomerates during conventional drying. Their freeze drying would allow formation of a freely flowing nano powder.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Characterization of a Pearlescent Biaxially Oriented Multilayer Polypropylene Film(Lviv Polytechnic National University, 2015) Arkış, Esen; Çetinkaya, Hayrullah; Kurtuluş, Işıl; Ulucan, Utku; Aytaç, Arda; Balcı, Beste; Balköse, DevrimThe morphology, composition, optical, thermal and mechanical properties of a commercial pearlescent and multilayer biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films were determined.

Natural and modified Luffa fibers were characterized by using IR spectroscopy. Composites were produced with PVC plastisol and natural Luffa fiber. Natural Luffa fiber is a highly hydrophilic substance. This feature increased the water sorption capacity of the composites. Flexible PVC-luffa cylindrica composites had higher liquid water sorption capacity (0.3-0.6%) compared to that of flexible PVC (0.1%). There was no volume change of composites due to liquid water sorption.Book Part Control of the Particle Size and Purity of Nano Zinc Oxide(Taylor & Francis, 2014) Özmıhçı Ömürlü, Filiz; Balköse, DevrimEffects of template, mechanical mixing and/or ultrasound mixing on the size of the ZnO crystals obtained by precipitation at 30 °C from aqueous zinc chloride and potassium hydroxide solutions were investigated by 2k factorial design. Precipitation method is employed to synthesize nano zinc oxide particles. Monodisperse nano ZnO having 29 nm particle size was produced by adding triethyl amine and applying simultaneously mechanical and ultrasound mixing. The surface area and the density of the powder were 21 m2/g and 4.8 g/cm3. It contains 5.2% impurities present as CO3-2 and bound OH- groups. Volumetric resistivity was found as 1.3 × 107ohm cm. Absorption spectrum of the powder showed absorption peak at 353 nm. The room temperature fluorescence spectrum of the powder revealed a strong and sharp UV emission band at 391 nm due to free exciton or bound exciton of ZnO and a weak and broad violet emission band at 405 nm due to zinc vacancies.Book Citation - Scopus: 5Aluminium-Coated Polymer Films as Infrared Light Shields for Food Packing(Apple Academic Press, 2014) Hamrang, Abbas; Balköse, Devrim; Zaikov, Gennadij Efremovich; Haghi, A.

Clinoptilolite, a natural zeolitic tuff, was used as the filling material into the composites. Effect of both pure clinoptilolite and silver ion exchanged form of clinoptilolite addition on the thermal degradation kinetics of polypropylene composites was studied by using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetry analysis (TGA) techniques. Polymer degradation was evaluated by using DSC with heating rates of 5, 10, and 20 degrees C/ min from room temperature up to 500 degrees C. Silver concentration (4.36, 27.85 and 183.8 mg Ag/g zeolite) was the selected parameter under consideration. From the DSC curves, it was observed that the heat of degradation values of the composites containing 2-6% silver exchanged zeolites (321-390 kJ/kg) were larger compared to that of the pure PP free of silver and zeolite (258 kJ/kg). From the DSC results it was confirmed that PP-zeolite composites can be used at higher temperatures compared to the pure PP polymer because of its higher thermal stability. The thermal decomposition activation energies of the composites were calculated by using both the Kissenger and Ozawa models. The values predicted from these two equations were in close agreement. From the TGA curves, it was found that zeolite addition into the PP matrix speeds down the decomposition reaction, however, silver exchanged zeolite addition into the matrix accelerates the reaction. The higher the silver concentration, the lower the thermal decomposition activation energies were obtained. As a result, PP was found to be much more susceptible to thermal decomposition in the presence of silver exchanged zeolite.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Use, Preparation, and Characterization of Copper-Containing Silica Gel(American Chemical Society, 2020) Ulutan, Sevgi; Tüzüm Demir, Ayşe Pınar; Balköse, DevrimThe preparation and characterization of humidity-indicating silica gel containing copper sulfate were aimed at in the present study. The equilibrium and kinetics of Cu(II) sorption were investigated by contacting 200-1600 mg dm(-3) Cu ion-containing solutions with silica hydrogel slabs having 10% silica. The diffusion coefficient of Cu(II) in silica hydrogel was determined to be on the order of 10(-10) m(2) s(-1). X-ray diffraction indicated that the gels contained mainly CuSO4 center dot 3H(2)O, CuSO4 center dot H2O, and small amounts of CuSO4 and CuSiO3 center dot 2H(2)O. The silica gel with Cu(II) can be used as a humidity indicator since its color changes from light blue to dark blue upon moisture adsorption.Article Citation - WoS: 6Citation - Scopus: 9Preparation and Characterization of Flexible Polyvinylchloride-Copper Composite Films(Smithers Rapra Technology, 2013) Kurt, Emrah; Özçelik, Cenk Yağız; Yetgin, Senem; Özmıhçı Ömürlü, Filiz; Balköse, DevrimFlexible PVC films are statically charged due to their low electrical conductivity. This creates fire threat during its handling. Conductive materials are added to films to prevent this. In the present study it was aimed to prepare PVC- copper composite films by sol gel technique and characterize the prepared films. It was aimed to increase the electrical conductivity of the films by adding copper powder. However, the copper particles settled down to bottom instead of forming a conductive network that covers the whole cross section. Thus at the film crosssection a plastic upper phase and a copper rich lower phase were present. The film did not conduct electricity due to this uneven distribution. The minimum volumetric and surface resistivities of the films were at the order of 109 ohm-cm and 1010 ohm square respectively.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 10Water and Water Vapor Sorption Studies in Poly(propylene)-Zeolite Composites(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2003) Pehlivan, Hilal; Özmıhçı, Filiz; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, SemraWater and water vapor sorption to porous poly(propylene)zeolite composites prepared by hot pressing have been studied as a function of zeolite loading. This work presents the first report on the effect of the zeolite as a filler on the water sorption properties of PP composites. Water swelling experiments were conducted at 25°C using pure PP and PP-zeolite film samples having different zeolite loadings (6-40 wt%). Since PP is a hydrophobic polymer, it does not sorp any water, but the composites having 10, 20, 30, and 40% zeolite sorbed 0.63, 1.00, 1.72 and 3.74 wt% water, respectively. The zeolite itself at the same conditions sorbed 24.5 wt% water. As the filler loading in the composites increased, equilibrium uptake values increased too. On the other hand, water vapor sorption and kinetics has been studied using a Cahn 2000 gravimetric sorption system. Within in the range 0.35-0.95%, water vapor was adsorbed by the composites containing 10-40 wt% zeolite. Experimental effective water vapor diffusivities of the composite films were about one order of magnitude higher than the experimental water diffusion coefficient in composites. The transport of water in composites was slower than that in the liquid water due to the longer diffusion pathway and adsorption on the surface of the composites. Although the liquid water may fill all the voids in the composite, water vapor is adsorbed on the surface of the zeolite only.
