Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 12Effect of Process Parameters on Surface Quality for Wire Saw Cutting of Alumina Ceramic(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2011) Teomete, EgemenSilicon wafers are sliced using wire saw in micro electronics and photo voltaic industries. Wire saw process occupies a great portion of silicon wafer production cost which affects the market directly. The process is also used to cut ceramics, concrete and rocks in civil engineering. The high cost of the process motivates researchers to develop models that will relate the process efficiency and quality with process parameters. In this study, an experimental parametric study was conducted to investigate the effect of process parameters on the wire bow angle, distributed wire load and surface roughness in wire saw cutting of alumina ceramic. The material removal and surface damage formation mechanisms are identified. Process design recommendations for increasing efficiency of the process while keeping the surface roughness constant, are presented. The surface roughness increases with increasing feed rate, decreases with wire speed and is independent of wire tension. The material is removed by trans-granular failure of the grains while inter-granular fractures of the grains affect the surface quality.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Investigation of the Permeability of Pure Gases in Sol-Gel Derived Al 2o 3 Membrane(Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Topuz, Berna; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Özkan, FehimeThe preparation, characterization and pure gas permeation of sol-gel derived alumina membranes were investigated in this work. The effects of acid concentration/type and water content on the particle size in the sols and pore size distributions of the unsupported membrane were investigated by N 2 adsorption/desorption isotherms and Dynamic Light Scattering. Increasing the H +/Al 3+ mole ratio from 0.1 to 0.25 caused the hydrodynamic sol particle size and BJH pore size to decrease from 65 to 30 nm and 3.6 to 2.9 nm, respectively. The pore size increased from 2.8 nm to 3 nm upon increasing the calcination temperature from 500 to 600°C. Unsupported membranes were heat treated in the 200 to 1200 °C range for the characterization of the phase structure. Pinhole and crack free alumina membranes about 3 μm (2-layer) in thickness was observed from the SEM pictures with insignificant infiltration. The CO 2 permeability through the double layer γ-Al 2O 3 membrane calcined at 600 °C was 2.25*10 -7 mol/m 2.s.Pa, and had a slight pressure dependence indicating Knudsen Diffusion and Laminar Flow being the effective transport mechanisms. Upon the calcination of a similar 2-layer alumina membrane at 500°C, the CO 2 permeability decreased to 1.51 *10 -8 mol/m 2.s.Pa. without pressure dependence.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Effects of Processing on the Properties and Permeability of Pure Gases Through Sol-Gel Silica Membranes(Trans Tech Publications, 2004) Topuz, Berna; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin; Özkan, FehimeN2, O2 and CO2 pure gas permeation through sol-gel derived silica membranes were determined and the effects of processing parameters on the microstructure of the membrane was investigated. Silica sols were prepared in an alcoholic solution by hydrolysis and condensation of TEOS as a function of acid content. The thickness of the silica membranes was determined to be about 2μm and significant infiltration into the support was observed from the SEM pictures. The supported membranes were heat treated in the 50-400°C. The N2 permeabilities of silica membranes varied in the 2.2*10-10-2.7*10-8 mol/m2.s.Pa range for single layer membranes dipped for 10s. in the sol. The CO2 permeability of these membranes varied in the 1.2*10-9-6.95 *10-8 mol/m2.s.Pa range. The sols became viscous and gelled at 50°C in 16 hours. The O2 permeability increased with aging time. The optimum dipping time during processing was determined to be 10 seconds. The increase in the acid content of the sols were observed to increase permeabilities of the membranes significantly.
