The synthesis of ZnO nanostructures with different morphology by varying anodic oxidation parameters containing electrolytes, molarity, voltage, and duration was analyzed. ZnO nanostructures were prepared through different parameters consisting of six samples. The produced ZnO nanostructures were investigated by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, diffuse reflectance spectroscopy, and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. It was found that the morphology of ZnO structures was formed as nanorods, needle-like, flower-like, heterogeneous, and homogeneous of mixed structures. ZnO nanostructures were identified by matching X-Ray diffraction peaks due to the international center for diffraction data database. Experiments on photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue demonstrated that the photocatalytic activity of ZnO samples. The best photocatalytic performance was observed by the sample anodized for an hour in 0.05 M of KHCO3 electrolytes with 40 V electrical potential. It was observed that the removal of methylene blue increased 3 times (photocatalytic degradation efficiency similar to 31% for methylene blue vs similar to 90% by the best sample) thanks to the obtained ZnO nanostructured photocatalysts. The results showed that an increment of the voltage has a significant effect on the photocatalytic activity of ZnO while keeping other parameters including molarity, time, and electrolyte type constant.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 8Influence of Applied Current Density on the Nanostructural and Light Emitting Properties of N-Type Porous Silicon(World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd, 2015) Çetinel, A.; Artunç, N.; Şahin, Gündoğdu; Tarhan, EnverEffects of current density on nanostructure and light emitting properties of porous silicon (PS) samples were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), gravimetric method, Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. FE-SEM images have shown that below 60 mA/cm2, macropore and mesopore arrays, exhibiting rough morphology, are formed together, whose pore diameter, pore depth and porosity are about 265-760 nm, 58-63 μ m and 44-61%, respectively. However, PS samples prepared above 60 mA/cm2 display smooth and straight macropore arrays, with pore diameter ranging from 900-1250 nm, porosity of 61-80% and pore depth between 63-69 μm. Raman analyses have shown that when the current density is increased from 10 mA/cm2 to 100 mA/cm2, Raman peaks of PS samples shift to lower wavenumbers by comparison to crystalline silicon (c-Si). The highest Raman peak shift is found to be 3.2 cm-1 for PS sample, prepared at 90 mA/cm2, which has the smallest nanocrystallite size, about 5.2 nm. This sample also shows a pronounced PL, with the highest blue shifting, of about 12 nm. Nanocrystalline silicon, with the smallest nanocrystallite size, confirmed by our Raman analyses using microcrystal model (MCM), should be responsible for both the highest Raman peak shift and PL blue shift due to quantum confinement effect (QCE).Article Citation - WoS: 143Citation - Scopus: 164Mechanical and Thermal Behavior of Non-Crimp Glass Fiber Reinforced Layered Clay/Epoxy Nanocomposites(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Bozkurt, Emrah; Kaya, Elçin; Tanoğlu, MetinMechanical and thermal properties of non-crimp glass fiber reinforced clay/epoxy nanocomposites were investigated. Clay/epoxy nanocomposite systems were prepared to use as the matrix material for composite laminates. X-ray diffraction results obtained from natural and modified clays indicated that intergallery spacing of the layered clay increases with surface treatment. Tensile tests indicated that clay loading has minor effect on the tensile properties. Flexural properties of laminates were improved by clay addition due to the improved interface between glass fibers and epoxy. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) results showed that the modified clay particles affected the glass transition temperatures (T g) of the nanocomposites. Incorporation of surface treated clay particles increased the dynamic mechanical properties of nanocomposite laminates. It was found that the flame resistance of composites was improved significantly by clay addition into the epoxy matrix.Article Citation - WoS: 195Optical Properties of Composites of Pmma and Surface-Modified Zincite Nanoparticles(American Chemical Society, 2007) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Koynov, Kaloian; Akbey, Ümit; Bubeck, Christoph; Park, Insun; Lieberwirth, Ingo; Wegner, GerhardLocate full-text(opens in a new window)|Full Text(opens in a new window)|View at Publisher| Export | Download | Add to List | More... Macromolecules Volume 40, Issue 4, 20 February 2007, Pages 1089-1100 Optical properties of composites of PMMA and surface-modified zincite nanoparticles (Article) Demir, M.M.a, Koynov, K.a, Akbey, Ü.a, Bubeck, C.a, Park, I.ab, Lieberwirth, I.a, Wegner, G.a a Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Ackermannweg 10, D-55128 Mainz, Germany b Seoul National University, School of Chemistry, Korea, South Korea View references (65) Abstract Composites that show visible light transmittance, UV absorption, and moderately high refractive index, based on poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and zinc oxide (zincite, ZnO) nanoparticles, were prepared in two steps. First, surface-modified ZnO nanoparticles with 22 nm average diameter were nucleated by controlled precipitation via acid-catalyzed esterification of zinc acetate dihydrate with pentan-1-ol. The surface of growing crystalline particles was modified with tert-butylphosphonic acid (tBuPO3H2) in situ by monolayer coverage. Particle size and graft density of -PO3H 2 on the particle surface were controlled by the amount of surfactant applied to the reaction solution. Second, the surface-modified particles were incorporated into PMMA by in-situ bulk polymerization. Free radical polymerization was carried out in the presence of these particles using AIBN as initiator. Volume fraction (0) of the particles was varied from 0.10 to 7.76% (0.5 to 30 wt %). Although the particles are homogeneously dispersed in monomer, segregation of the individual particles upon polymerization was observed. Optical constants of the films ca. 2.0 μm including absorption and scattering efficiencies, indices of refraction, and dispersion constants were determined. The absorption coefficient at 350 nm increases linearly with ZnO, obeying Beer's law at low particle contents. However, it levels off toward a value of about 5000 cm-1 and shows a negative deviation at high concentrations because of aggregation of the individual particles. Waveguide propagation loss coefficients of the composite films were examined by prism coupling. A steep increase of the loss coefficient was found with a slope of 52 dB cm-1 vol %-1 as the volume fraction of the particle increases. The refractive index of the composites depends linearly on volume fraction of ZnO and varies from 1.487 to 1.507 (φ = 7.76%) at 633 nm. The dispersion of refractive index was found to be consistent with Cauchy's formula.
