Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Transparent block copolymer thin films for protection of optical elements via chemical vapor deposition(Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Karabıyık, Merve; Ebil, ÖzgençIn this study, glycidyl methacrylate and 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorodecyl acrylate copolymer p(GMA-co-PFDA) thin-films fabricated via Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition (iCVD) were investigated as protective coatings on optical BK7 glass substrates and commercial optical filters. Durability tests based on military standards MIL-F-48616 and MIL-C-48497A were performed to evaluate performance of coatings for the protection of surfaces of optical elements. Cross-linked p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer coatings successfully passed all durability tests showing excellent mechanical properties and protection against humidity, salt water, swelling in water, and resistance to organic solvents while providing excellent adhesion to substrate. iCVD process enabled fine tuning of film morphology, mechanical properties and hydrophobicity by controlling the process parameters. Fabricated films were hydrophobic and highly transparent (>98%) in the wavelength range from 300 nm to 1000 nm. Optical transmittance measurements before and after coating process proved that while providing chemical and physical protection, p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer thin-films do not cause any detectable change in optical performance of commercial narrow band and wide band filters.Article Citation - Scopus: 2Enthalpy-Driven Selective Loading of Cdse0.75s0.25 Nanoalloys in Triblock Copolymer Polystyrene-B(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Aşkın, Görkem; Çeçen, Volkan; Ünlütürk, Seçil Sevim; Özçelik, Serdar; Demir, Mustafa MuammerCdSe0.75S0.25 nanoalloys were blended with asymmetric triblock copolymer of polystyrene-b-polyisoprene-b-polystyrene(PS-SIS) in tetrahydrofuran. The fraction of styrene block varies from 14 to 22% with respect to isoprene by mass. The morphology of the copolymer cast film experiences a phase change from cylinder to lamella. CdSe0.75S0.25 nanoalloys were prepared by two-phase method. The surface of the nanoalloys was capped by either oleic acid (OA) or n-tri-octylphosphonic acid (TOPO) in situ. The mean diameter of the alloyed particles is around 12 nm in both systems. The chemical nature of the nanoalloy surface was found to influence the dispersion of the particles over polymer volume. The size of the nanoalloy domains in PS is 50 nm, on average, consisting of approximately 0.7 wt% nanoalloys. However, the size of the nanoalloy domains is smaller when they are loaded into PS-SIS. The structure formation is predominantly determined by enthalpic compatibilization. Atomic force microscopy results suggest that the nanoalloys capped with TOPO sequester into PS-rich domains and enlarge the domain. On the other hand, the ones capped with OA prefer to locate in polyisoprene domains. The increase of particles over 1.0 wt% distorts the lamella structure.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 7Alumina/Water Suspensions in the Presence of Peo-Ppo Triblock Copolymers(Elsevier Ltd., 2004) Şakar Deliormanlı, Aylin; Polat, Hürriyet; Çiftçioğlu, MuhsinThe aim of this study was to investigate the stability and dispersion behaviour of aqueous alumina suspensions in the presence of polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide (PEO-PPO-PEO) type triblock copolymers. For this purpose alumina suspensions at various solids loadings were prepared using four different methods. These are: Method I: powder and water were stirred only; Method II: powder and water were stirred and ultrasonic treatment was applied; Method III: powder and water were stirred in the presence of block copolymers; Method IV: powder and water were stirred and ultrasonic treatment was applied in the presence of block copolymers. These suspensions were characterized by means of rheological measurements. Sedimentation and turbidity measurements were also conducted to support these results and to investigate the stability of these systems for longer times. Surface tension measurements were performed to investigate the adsorption behaviour of block copolymers onto alumina surface. It was found that the use of PEO-PPO-PEO type triblock copolymers improved the dispersion behaviour of aqueous alumina suspensions in the presence of ultrasonic treatment at low solids loadings. However their effect was not significant at high solids loadings and without ultrasonic treatment.Conference Object Effect of Peo/Ppo Type Triblock Copolymers on Dispersion Behaviour of Aqueous Alumina Suspensions(Trans Tech Publications, 2001) Şakar, Aylin M.; Polat, Hürriyet; Çiftçioğlu, MuhsinThe aim of this study was to investigate the stability and dispersion behaviour of aqueous alumina suspensions in the presence of polyethylene oxide-polypropylene oxide-polyethylene oxide (PEO/PPO/PEO) type block copolymers. The influence of water soluble triblock copolymers with molecular weight ranging from 2900 to 12600 g/mole were tested at Φ = 0.125, 1, 10, 20 vol % solid loading alumina suspensions by rheological, turbidity, sedimentation and surface tension measurements. The results indicate that an alternative dispersant for alumina suspensions is the PEO/PPO triblock copolymers. Their stabilisation mechanism was attributed to the depletion stabilisation. Rheological measurements indicated that these block copolymers (at high EO percentages) coupled with ultrasonic treatment have a positive effect on the dispersion of the agglomerated alumina suspensions. It was not possible to create stable dispersions in the absence of ultrasonic bath treatment. Turbidity measurements at Φ = 0.025, 0.125 vol % showed that, alumina suspensions with PEO/PPO added were stable and have higher turbidity values than block copolymer free suspensions.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 24Kinetics of Oil Dispersion in the Absence and Presence of Block Copolymers(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 1999) Polat, Hürriyet; Polat, Mehmet; Chander, SubhashA phenomenological model proposed describes droplet breakup in the turbitlently agitated lean oil-in-water dispersions and provides a correlation between the median droplet size in an agitated vessel of standard geometry and the time of dispersion. It was assumed that the droplet breakup takes place in the dispersion-only region and coalescence is negligible. Vie model described the data from this study and the literature quite satisfactorily under these conditions. The effect of adding triblock PEO/PPO/PEO copofymeric surfactants on the dispersion kinetics of oil was also investigated. Addition of surfactant reduced the median oil droplet size significanfty, and the extent of this reduction was a strong function of surfactant concentration. Application of the model on these data demonstrated that the change in the median droplet size could be divided into two distinct regions. The breakage rate was high initially, most probably due to continuous adsorption of surfactant molecules at the oil/water interface. A lower breakage rate was attained at longer tunes, as the surfactant molecules were depleted from the solution. The time of transition bet\veen the t\vo was affected strongly by the concentration of the surfactant added. Furthermore, the time of addition of the surfactant did not affect the final droplet-size distribution in the system.
