    Enhanced Methylene Blue Removal Efficiency of Tio2 Embedded Porous Glass
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Ertuş, E.Burak; Vakıfahmetoğlu, Çekdar; Öztürk, Abdullah
    A porous glass (PG) embedded with titanium dioxide (TiO2) was produced via impregnation of the PG with Titanium (IV) Isopropoxide solution followed by crystallization. N2 sorption analyses revealed that the specific surface area (SSA) and total pore volume of the PG reached to 358 m2/g and 0.370 cm3/g, respectively. The adsorption capacity of methylene blue (MB) for the glasses was measured in the dark, instead the photocatalytic MB removal efficiency was evaluated by the degradation of MB under UV light illumination using a UV–vis spectrometer. The MB removal efficiency of the TiO2 synthesized anatase powder was only 32.3 % whereas, for TiO2 embedded PG (TiPG) it was 91.6 %, and nearly complete (> 99 %) efficacy was achieved for TiO2 embedded alkaline leached PG (TiPG-AL) under UV illumination 3 h period. Better MB removal efficiency was attributed to high SSA and dispersion of nano size anatase TiO2 crystallites within the porous structure. © 2020 Elsevier Ltd

    Cold Sintering of Soda-Lime Glass
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2021) Karacasulu, Levent; Ögür, Ezgi; Pişkin, Cerem; Vakıfahmetoğlu, Çekdar
    Ordinary recycled soda lime glass powder was densified via cold sintering process with the aid of concentrated NaOH solution. Increase in processing time, temperature and concentration of the NaOH solution resulted in the formation of monolithic glass artifacts with higher relative densities. The sample densified the most (95.2%) was obtained when the sintering was performed at 250˚C with a 20 min dwell time using 15 M NaOH solution.

    Hierarchically Porous Polymer Derived Ceramics: a Promising Platform for Multidrug Delivery Systems
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2018) Vakıfahmetoğlu, Çekdar; Zeydanlı, Damla; Özalp, Veli Cengiz; Borsa, Barış Ata; Soraru, Gian Domenico
    Mesoporous silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) components were formed with the use of “molecular spacer” (a sacrificial vinyl-terminated linear siloxane which while decomposing during pyrolysis generates pores with size proportional to the molecular weight), followed by a post-pyrolysis etching treatment by hydrofluoric acid (HF) to obtain C-rich SiOC samples having additional micro-/mesoporosity and specific surface area reaching to 774 m2/g. The biocompatibility of the samples was validated by hemolysis test, and their cargo/drug loading capacities were studied by two different sized polypeptides as model molecules. SiOC particles showed less hemolysis compared to the reference material MCM-41. Similarly, the loading capacity and the release kinetics of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and vancomycin-loaded SiOC particles were improved compared to that of MCM-41. In the multi cargo loading/release capacity tests, done by using different sized molecules, Bio2-HF and MCM-41 were loaded both with fluorescein and BSA. While a lagging time in fluorescein release was observed for MCM-41, the release kinetics of fluorescein and BSA was not affected when they are loaded together in the hierarchical pores of Bio2-HF, allowing the release of both large and small cargo molecules. The antimicrobial activity tests showed that Bio2-HF performed better than MCM-41 particles in improving bactericidal activity.
