Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 22Fabrication and Properties of Novel Porous Ceramic Membrane Supports From the (sig) Diatomite and Alumina Mixtures(Elsevier, 2022) Aouadja, Faycal; Bouzerara, Ferhat; Güvenç, Çetin Meriç; Demir, Mustafa M.In this paper, the manufacturing of macro-porous tubular ceramic supports for membranes is described. The novel supports are fabricated from natural diatomite and alumina raw materials using the extrusion method. The structure was analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and mercury porosimetry techniques; the presence of possible defects was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The permeability has been measured from water flux in standard experiments. Experimental results show that the open porosity, the average pore size (APS), the pore size distribution, the strength, and the permeability of sintered supports, have been found to depend, mainly on the concentration of alumina (Al2O3) additive. Supports prepared with the addition of 10 wt.% of alumina and sintered at 1200 degrees C, can be considered as the most optimized; they have a porosity ratio of about 46%, an APS is around 7.7 mu m, a flexural strength value of about 28 MPa, and water permeability of around 15 m(3)h(-1) m(-2) bar(-1). Such materials could be of great interest in the supports fabrication for membrane application, for instance, water filtration. (C) 2021 SECV.

This process is also used to machine almost all kinds of brittle materials where high yield and low surface damage is desired. The wire saw process induces roughness and long waviness on the cut surface. These defects have to be removed by post-process techniques including grinding and lapping, which increases costs. The present study investigated the long waviness induced by the wire saw process. An analytical model for long waviness generation has been developed. Experimental work was conducted with different process parameters. The analytical model is capable of explaining the long waviness generation observed in experimental work. Process design recommendations with minimal waviness and high efficiency are presented.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.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Determination of the Particle Interactions, Rheology and the Surface Roughness Relationship for Dental Restorative Ceramics(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Kes, Mürşide; Polat, Hürriyet; Keleşoğlu, Serkan; Polat, Mehmet; Aksoy, GökhanThe effect of inter-particle interactions on the slurry properties and the final surface roughness of the dental ceramic restoratives was investigated. A commercial dental ceramic powder, IPS Empress 2 veneer, was used as the raw material. The magnitudes of the particle-particle interactions were computed by the DLVO theory for the ceramic slurries of different electrolyte solutions (0.1 M, 0.25 M, 0.5 M, 0.75 M, 1 M NaCl and CaCl2). As expected, the energies of particle-particle interactions were influenced significantly by the presence of electrolytes. These computations demonstrated that addition of electrolytes leads to a progressive depression of the repulsive double layer forces. The absence of these forces should inevitably lead to agglomeration caused by the ever-present van der Waals forces. The rheological measurements carried out using the slurries with same solution properties supported the findings of the DLVO computations. It was found that dental ceramic slurries showed a Newtonian behavior in the absence of electrolytes, which is indicative of little or no agglomeration in the slurry. On the other hand, the same slurries displayed a non-Newtonian, shear thinning behavior in the presence of electrolytes which can be attributed to agglomeration or gelation. Roughness of the ceramic surfaces produced from these slurries was studied by SEM analysis and profilometer measurements. Contact angle studies were also carried out on the same surfaces. It was observed that the surface became rougher initially with electrolyte addition to a maximum, most probably due to formation of isolated agglomerates due to a reduction of the repulsive double layer forces. After reaching a maximum, surface roughness decreased to a much lower value with further increase in electrolyte concentration. This was most probably caused by the formation of a relatively homogeneous, gel-like structure within the extensively agglomerated slurry due to a complete collapse of the double layer.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.Article Citation - WoS: 67Citation - Scopus: 82Microhardness and Fracture Toughness of Dental Materials by Indentation Method(John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2005) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Şakar Deliormanlı, Aylin Müyesser; Güden, Mustafa; Güden, MustafaThe main objective of this study was to measure the fracture toughness of the human teeth enamel using the microindentation technique and to compare the results calculated from the equations developed for Palmqvist and radial-median cracks. Vickers microhardness measurements of dental ceramic (alumina) and human teeth were performed using indentation fracture method. The fracture toughness of enamel was calculated using different equations reported in the literature. Vickers microhardness of the sintered alumina specimen (98.8% theoretical density) was measured to be 14.92 GPa under 9.8N indentation load. Three equations based on the radial-median cracks were found to be applicable for the fracture toughness determination of the enamel. Results show that indentation fracture method is adequate to measure microhardness and fracture toughness of dental materials. However the calculation of fracture toughness depended on the nature of the cracks and also on the location of the indentation. Therefore, it is necessary to identify the crack profile and to select the appropriate equation for accurate fracture toughness values.
