Article Citation - WoS: 24Citation - Scopus: 29Hydrophobic Coatings From Photochemically Prepared Hydrophilic Polymethacrylates Via Electrospraying(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2017) Işık, Tuğba; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Isık, Tuğba; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Yağcı, Yusuf; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyLinear poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) P(HEMA-co-MMA) and poly(dimehylaminoethyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) P(DMAEMA-co-MMA) and their corresponding hyperbranched copolymers were synthesized by conventional photoinitiated free radical polymerization and self-condensing vinyl polymerization (SCVP) using Type I and Type II photoinitiators, respectively. Then, the polymers were processed by electrospraying in N, N-dimethylformamide. The surface of the resulting electrospray coatings was examined by SEM, XPS, and WCA then compared with those prepared by drop casting. Regardless of the structural nature of the polymers, electrospraying allows the preparation of rough surface that shows more hydrophobic behavior. Electrospray coatings with linear and hyperbranched copolymers exhibited WCA as ∼150° and ∼130°, respectively, indicating that branching reduces the WCA.Article Citation - WoS: 185Pmma/Zinc Oxide Nanocomposites Prepared by In-Situ Bulk Polymerization(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2006) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Castignolles, Patrice; Wegner, Gerhard; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyDispersing surface-modified zinc oxide nano-particles (ZnO) in methyl methacrylate (MMA) improves the free radical bulk polymerization process as well as the thermal stability of the formed polymer. Hydroxy groups available on the ZnO surface may induce a degenerative transfer. This suppresses the gel effect, which leads to a better control of the heat evolution during the late stages of polymerization. The formation of chains having vinylidene end groups and head-to-head links is suppressed, which shifts the onset of thermal decomposition to the regime where decomposition occurs by random chain scission.Article Citation - WoS: 51Citation - Scopus: 53Challenges in the Preparation of Optical Polymer Composites With Nanosized Pigment Particles: a Review on Recent Efforts(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2012) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyBlends of nanosized pigment particles and polymers are widely believed to offer the potential for the design of novel or at least improved materials. This review critically evaluates the recent literature with regard to the following issues: (a) why and how does the size of the particles matter, (b) what are the requirements to create compatibility between amorphous polymers and nanoparticles, (c) carbon allotropes as nanosized pigments, (d) bulk polymerization of monomer/pigment mixtures, (e) interaction of growing chains with the particles in the polymerization, (f) depletion flocculation as a mechanism to counteract homogeneous distribution of the particles in the polymer matrix and ways to suppress the undesirable flocculation, and (g) optical properties of the blends as well as methods of optical characterization.
