Article Citation - Scopus: 4One-step hydrothermal synthesis of spinel manganese oxide ion-sieve from commercial Γ-Mno2 and its uptake performance for lithium(Elsevier Ltd, 2024) Toprak, Seyra; Demir, Mustafa MuammerThe selective extraction of lithium from aqueous systems necessitates efficient sorbent materials. Spinel-type lithium manganese oxide ion sieves (LMOs) have been bee recognized for their high performance in this application. However, the elevated market cost of the spinel form (λ-MnO2) raises economic concerns, posing challenges to the feasibility of the extraction process. In this study, the one-step hydrothermal synthesis of Li1.33Mn1.67O4 was carried out at 200 °C for 7 days using commercial γ-MnO2 powder and aqueous LiOH solution as reactants. The synthesized powder exhibited characteristic XRD reflections consistent with spinel Li1.33Mn1.67O4. Lithium ion-sieve (H1.33Mn1.67O4) was obtained by leaching the LMO product with dilute hydrochloric acid solution. The sorption capacity of γ-MnO2 is increased from 8.4 to 23.1 mg/g (C0=200 mg/L), this capacity is very close to the one of the commercial λ-MnO2. The synthesized spinel HMO sorbent achieved a maximum Langmuir adsorption capacity of 52.1 mg/g. The extraction efficiency reached 94% at the sorbent dose of 20 g/L. The distribution coefficients of metal ions were in the order Li+ > Ca2+ > K+ > Na+, emphasizing selective Li+ extraction from brines with high Na+ content. These findings highlight the successful development of a spinel-type lithium manganese oxide ion sieve from γ-MnO2 polymorph, which is nearly an order of magnitude cheaper than the selective λ-MnO2. The study addresses critical issue of economic feasibility in lithium extraction processes, providing a potential solution for the selective recovery of bulk lithium. © 2024 Elsevier LtdBook Part Citation - Scopus: 1A Recycling Route of Plastics Via Electrospinning: From Daily Wastes To Functional Fibers(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2019) Isık, Tuğba; Horzum,N.; Demir, Mustafa MuammerSince large-scale plastic production has begun in the 1940s, plastics have been produced and used globally, bringing many advantages to modern life. The consumption of plastics has increased exponentially due to their low cost, chemical resistance, lightness, durability and ability to combine with other materials. However, plastic materials represent high tonnage in urban wastes, and it is known that these plastics discarded at the end of their useful life by filling the landfill sites. Electrospinning is a well-established and versatile technique for the fabrication of submicron fibers. In addition, it is a promising approach for the recycling of waste polymers without using complex methodologies. In this chapter, utilization of electrospinning approach for the recycling of daily wastes will be discussed. The literature about the daily wastes of both synthetic materials and natural/agricultural materials will be analyzed, and the applications of these materials will be given in detail. © 2019 Walter de Gruyter GmbH, Berlin/Boston.

It is a relatively affordable substance widely used in food and non-food applications. Fresh rhizomes of Curcuma longa L. and Curcuma caesia extract turmeric starch (Zingiberaceae). Turmeric starch is a common food ingredient used in the thickening of soups and making syrups and other sugars. It is easily modified and finds many uses in industries such as adhesives, paper products, anti-sticking agents, and textile manufacturing. Morphological characteristics such as the shape and size of starch granules vary significantly, and further studies are expected for Turmeric starch, with promising results and increasing the usefulness of starches in industries. This book chapter outlines recent developments in understanding starch isolation, chemical composition, morphology, pasting, rheological and thermal characteristics, and various applications of turmeric starch. Potential applications of oat starches are also reviewed. © 2024 Elsevier Inc.

A high-pressure autoclave was used to conduct water-rock interaction experiments under similar conditions of the field. Rainwater and seawater were treated with volcanic rocks at 140 degrees C (reservoir temperature) and 4.5 bar pressure. The change in the ionic content of the resulting fluids was examined in terms of the type of volcanic rocks and mineral saturation index. The results indicate that talc and diopside minerals in geothermal systems may cause scaling at high temperatures depending on the geothermal fluid and pH.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 9Experimental Apparatus for Simultaneous Measurement of Triboelectricity and Triboluminescence(Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Arıca, Tuğçe A.; Topçu, Gökhan; Pala, Atamert; Demir, Mustafa MuammerTriboelectricity is a phenomenon caused by the accumulation of opposite electric charges on the surfaces of two different materials as a result of contact with each other. The phenomenon of emitting cold light when the material is subjected to physical deformation is called triboluminescence. This paper presents an experimental apparatus that allows simultaneous measurement of both triboelectricity and triboluminescence of a model composite system based on poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and europium tetrakis (dibenzoylmethide) triethylammonium (EuD(4)TEA). While the former component was studied in contact-separation mode giving triboelectricity, the latter emits triboluminescence upon application of mechanical impact. The device was operated at varying range of frequencies from 0.5 to 4.8 Hz and the force in the range of 5.4-9.5 N. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd.

Inspired from the cornea structure, gelatin methacryloyl-poly(2-hydroxymethyl methacrylate) (GelMA-p(HEMA)) composite hydrogel was fabricated. GelMA fibers were produced via electrospinning and covered with a thin layer of p(HEMA) in the presence of N,N?-methylenebisacrylamide (MBA) as cross-linker by drop-casting. The structure of resulting GelMA-p(HEMA) composite was characterized by spectrophotometry, microscopy, and swelling studies. Biocompatibility and biological properties of the both p(HEMA) and GelMA-p(HEMA) composite have been investigated by 3D cell culture, red blood cell hemolysis, and protein adsorption studies (i.e., human serum albumin, human immunoglobulin and egg white lysozyme). The optical transmittance of the GelMA-p(HEMA) composite was found to be approximately 70% at 550 nm. The GelMA-p(HEMA) composite was biocompatible with tear fluid proteins and convenient for cell adhesion and growth. Thus, as prepared hydrogel composite may find extensive applications in future for the development of corneal tissue engineering as well as preparation of stroma of the corneal material. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.Book Citation - Scopus: 19Advanced Sensor and Detection Materials(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2014) Tiwari, Ashutosh; Demir, Mustafa MuammerPresents a comprehensive and interdisciplinary review of the major cutting-edge technology research areas-especially those on new materials and methods as well as advanced structures and properties-for various sensor and detection devices. The development of sensors and detectors at macroscopic or nanometric scale is the driving force stimulating research in sensing materials and technology for accurate detection in solid, liquid, or gas phases; contact or non-contact configurations; or multiple sensing. The emphasis on reduced-scale detection techniques requires the use of new materials and methods. These techniques offer appealing perspectives given by spin crossover organic, inorganic, and composite materials that could be unique for sensor fabrication. The influence of the length, composition, and conformation structure of materials on their properties, and the possibility of adjusting sensing properties by doping or adding the side-groups, are indicative of the starting point of multifarious sensing. The role of intermolecular interactions, polymer and ordered phase formation, as well as behavior under pressure and magnetic and electric fields are also important facts for processing ultra-sensing materials. The 15 chapters written by senior researchers in Advanced Sensor and Detection Materials cover all these subjects and key features under three foci: 1) principals and perspectives, 2) new materials and methods, and 3) advanced structures and properties for various sensor devices. © 2014 Scrivener Publishing LLC.

Incorporation of Cr 3 + ions into the perovskite crystal lattices is achieved by following a facile route involving an antisolvent recrystallization method at room temperature. It is shown that both Cr-doping and formation of crystals in the CsPbBr x Cl 3 - x phase are provided by increasing the concentration of the CrCl 3 solution. It is also observed that the doping procedure leads to the emergence of three types of distinctive peaks in the PL spectrum originating from CsPbBr x Cl 3 - x domains (476-427nm), Cr-strained host lattices (515nm), and midgap states formed by Cr dopants (675-775nm). It is also found that the Cr-doped perovskites emitting a dark violaceous color change their color to white with a high color rendering index (88) in 30-day time intervals. Easy-tunable optical properties of all-inorganic Cs perovskites indicate their great potential for future optoelectronic device applications.Article Citation - WoS: 89Citation - Scopus: 85Cspbbr3 Perovskites: Theoretical and Experimental Investigation on Water-Assisted Transition From Nanowire Formation To Degradation(American Physical Society, 2018) Akbalı, Barış; Topçu, Gökhan; Güner, Tuğrul; Özcan, Mehmet; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Şahin, HasanRecent advances in colloidal synthesis methods have led to an increased research focus on halide perovskites. Due to the highly ionic crystal structure of perovskite materials, a stability issue pops up, especially against polar solvents such as water. In this study, we investigate water-driven structural evolution of CsPbBr3 by performing experiments and state-of-the-art first-principles calculations. It is seen that while an optical image shows the gradual degradation of the yellowish CsPbBr3 structure under daylight, UV illumination reveals that the degradation of crystals takes place in two steps: transition from a blue-emitting to green-emitting structure and and then a transition from a green-emitting phase to complete degradation. We found that as-synthesized CsPbBr3 nanowires (NWs) emit blue light under a 254 nm UV source. Before the degradation, first, CsPbBr3 NWs undergo a water-driven structural transition to form large bundles. It is also seen that formation of such bundles provides longer-term environmental stability. In addition theoretical calculations revealed the strength of the interaction of water molecules with ligands and surfaces of CsPbBr3 and provide an atomistic-level explanation to a transition from ligand-covered NWs to bundle formation. Further interaction of green-light-emitting bundles with water causes complete degradation of CsPbBr3 and the photoluminescence signal is entirely quenched. Moreover, Raman and x-ray-diffraction measurements revealed that completely degraded regions are decomposed to PbBr2 and CsBr precursors. We believe that the findings of this study may provide further insight into the degradation mechanism of CsPbBr3 perovskite by water.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 46Phosphor-Based White Led by Various Glassy Particles:control Over Luminous Efficiency(The Optical Society, 2019) Yüce, Hürriyet; Güner, Tuğrul; Balcı, Sinan; Demir, Mustafa MuammerGenerating white light through a mainstream remote phosphor design suffers from phosphor conversion efficiency loss due to a backscattering of light. Such a loss also reduces luminous efficiency of the resulting white light. To overcome this issue, various glassy scatterers with different morphologies such as glass bubbles, glass beads, and nanosized silica particles were employed as scatterers, together with a fixed amount of yellow phosphor (YAG:Ce3+) and a poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) matrix. In addition, the simulation of the system validates the rigorous multiple scattering of the incoming light most probably due to refractive index mismatch between the glass bubbles and surrounding PDMS matrix along with the internal reflections.
