Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Effect of Cnt Incorporation on Pan/Ppy Nanofibers Synthesized by Electrospinning Method(TÜBİTAK, 2020) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Tanoğlu, Metin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Selamet, YusufIn this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) added polyacrylonitrile/polypyrrole (PAN/PPy) electrospun nanofibers were produced. Average diameters of the nanofibers were measured as 268 and 153 nm for 10 and 25 wt% of PPy contents, respectively. A relatively higher strain to failure values (23.3%) were observed for the low PPy content. When as-grown CNTs (1 and 4 wt%) were added into the PAN/PPy blends, disordered nanofibers were observed to form within the microstructure. To improve the interfacial properties of CNTs/PAN/PPy composites, CNTs were functionalized with H2SO4/HNO3/HCl solution. The functionalized CNTs were well dispersed within the nanofibers and aligned along the direction of nanofibers. Therefore, beads formation on nanofibers decreased. The impedance of the nanofibers was found to decrease with the PPy content and CNT addition. These nanofibers had a great potential to be used as an electrochemical actuator or a tissue engineering scaffold.Article Citation - WoS: 17Citation - Scopus: 19Heavy Naphtha Upgrading by Catalytic Reforming Over Novel Bi-Functional Zeolite Catalyst(Springer, 2018) Ahmedzeki, Nada S.; Al-Tabbakh, Ban A.; Antwan, Maher B.; Yılmaz, SelahattinNaphtha catalytic reforming process using bimetallic platinum and titanium loaded on nano synthesized HY zeolite was investigated for the product octane number enhancement. The activity of five samples of the prepared catalyst with different bimetallic loading of 0.13, 0.25 wt% Pt and 0.75, 1, 2.2 wt% Ti were investigated for Iraqi heavy naphtha catalytic reforming at the temperature range of 490, 500 and 510 degrees C and pressure of 10 bar in a packed bed pilot plant reactor. The best result of the research octane number was 84 for reformate product using the sample of 0.13% Pt-0.75% Ti%/HY zeolite at temperature 510 degrees C and 10 bar achieving 47% increase. All samples of the prepared catalyst showed a good stability during the operation at severe conditions and the maximum carbon content was about 9% due to the deposition of coke precursor on the catalyst surface. The reformate yield was investigated for all catalyst samples under 10 and 20 bars and the same range of temperature and ranged from 89 to 94%. These results are encouraging for future possible replacement of the conventional catalyst by the local synthetic zeolite. Octane number was correlated on the basis of constituent's boiling points. The maximum absolute error between the experimental and predicted octane number was about 3 and 5% using 10 and 20 bar respectively.Article Effective Synthesis of Cetyl Palmitate Over Co-Precipitated Wo3-Zro2 Catalysts(Springer Verlag, 2018) Mutlu, Vahide N.; Yılmaz, SelahattinThis study is focused on the development of solid acid catalysts for the synthesis of long chain fatty acids. A series of WO3-ZrO2 catalysts were prepared by co-precipitation method and tested in the synthesis of cetyl palmitate. The effect of WO3 loading (10, 15, and 20 wt% WO3) and calcination temperature (700 and 800 degrees C) on the catalyst properties and activity was investigated. XRD and Raman analysis confirmed that WO3 loading stabilized the tetragonal zirconia phase. Higher calcination temperature enhanced the acidities of the catalysts. WO3-ZrO2 catalysts were found to be very efficient for the synthesis of cetyl palmitate with high selectivity. These catalysts were tested for different reaction temperatures (135 and 162 degrees C), feed composition and catalyst amounts. The highest cetyl palmitate yield (98.4%) was obtained over the catalyst calcined at 800 degrees C with 15 wt% WO3, which had the highest total acidity. The catalysts preserved their activities up to three reuse.Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 17Cnt Incorporated Polyacrilonitrile/Polypyrrole Nanofibers as Keratinocytes Scaffold(Trans Tech Publications, 2019) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Aypek, Hande; Öztürk, Özgür; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Özçivici, Engin; Meşe, Gülistan; Selamet, YusufPolypyrrole (PPy) is an attractive scaffold material for tissue engineering with its non-toxic and electrically conductive properties. There has not been enough information about PPy usage in skin tissue engineering. The aim of this study is to investigate biocompatibility of polyacrilonitrile (PAN)/PPy nanofibrous scaffold for human keratinocytes. PAN/PPy bicomponent nanofibers were prepared by electrospinning, in various PPy concentrations and with carbon nanotube (CNT) incorporation. The average diameter of electrospun nanofibers decreased with increasing PPy concentration. Further, agglomerated CNTs caused beads and disordered parts on the surface of nanofibers. Biocompatibility of these PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds were analyzed in vitro. Both scaffolds provided adhesion and proliferation of keratinocytes. Nanofiber diameter did not significantly influence the morphology of cells. However, with increasing number of cells, cells stayed among nanofibers and this affected their shape and size. In this study, we demonstrated that PAN/PPy and PAN/PPy/CNT scaffolds enabled the growth of keratinocytes, showing their biocompatibility.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 13Fe Containing Zsm-5 Zeolite as Catalyst for Wet Peroxide Oxidation of Orange Ii(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2011) Bolova, Emre; Gündüz, Gönül; Dükkancı, Meral; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Yaman, Yadigar CeydaThis study presents the catalytic performances of iron containing ZSM-5 zeolites, prepared by ion exchange or hydrothermal synthesis, in catalytic Fenton-like oxidation of Orange II in aqueous solution. The catalyst, ZSM-5 zeolite with Si/Al ratio of 42 loaded with iron by ion exchange, showed the highest activity. The decolorization of 99.7 percent, degradation of 87.0 percent and COD removal of 81.2 percent were achieved over this catalyst at an initial pH of 3.5. Incorporation of iron into ZSM-5 structure increased its catalytic activity. The hydrothermally prepared FeZSM-5 catalyst was more stable against leaching at low pH value due to the iron being in the framework.Article Citation - WoS: 30Citation - Scopus: 31Esterification of Cetyl Alcohol With Palmitic Acid Over Wo3/Zr-sba-15 and Zr-Sba Catalysts(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Mutlu, Nahide Nuran; Yılmaz, SelahattinTungsten loaded and Zr incorporated SBA-15 catalysts (WO3/Zr-SBA-15 and Zr-SBA-15) were developed for esterification of cetyl alcohol and palmitic acid. The influence of the Zr content, tungsten loading amount, calcination temperature, feed composition and catalyst amount has been studied. Higher tungsten loading decreased the acidity due to formation of WO3 crystals whereas calcination temperature enhanced the acidity by favoring the dispersion of WOx species. Activities of the catalyst changed depending on their amount of Brønsted sites and total number of acid sites. Zr-SBA-15 catalyst which had the highest amount of Brønsted acid sites gave maximum cetyl palmitate yield (63.1%). This catalyst retained its activity up to 3 reuse cycles without significant loss of activity.Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 42Fructose Dehydration To 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural Over Sulfated Tio2-Sio2, Ti-Sba Zro2, Sio2, and Activated Carbon Catalysts(American Chemical Society, 2015) Kılınç, Emre; Yılmaz, SelahattinDifferent sulfated catalysts including SO4/TiO2-SiO2, SO4/Ti-SBA-15, SO4/ZrO2, SO4/AC, and SO4/SiO2 were tested in fructose dehydration to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Reactions were carried out in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 110 °C. Characterization results indicated that no sulfur leaching was observed from SO4/ZrO2, SO4/TiO2-SiO2, and SO4/Ti-SBA-15 catalysts in the reaction tests. The SO4/TiO2-SiO2 catalyst had a high amount of strong acid sites and the highest amount of Bronsted sites. The highest selectivity to HMF at high conversion, that is, 89% selectivity at 77% fructose conversion was obtained over this catalyst. It preserved its activity after four times reuse.Activated carbonCarbonCatalystsDehydrationArticle Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 31The Effects of Catalyst Pretreatment, Growth Atmosphere and Temperature on Carbon Nanotube Synthesis Using Co-mo/Mgo Catalyst(Elsevier Ltd., 2015) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Selamet, YusufThe growth of high quality and high yield carbon nanotubes (CNTs) by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of CH4 over Co-Mo/MgO catalyst was investigated for different growth temperatures and H2 flow rates. It was observed that CNT yield decreased with the H2 flow rate, however, quality increased with increasing H2 flow rate. CNT yield increased for the temperatures 850-950 °C but dropped significantly above 950 °C. In this study, the highest yield of 1526% was obtained at the growth temperature of 950 °C. The optimum H2 flow rate was 200 sccm; this rate gave both high graphitization and high yield of product. Various CNT growth atmospheres including Ar, H2 and the mixture of both gases were also analyzed and it was observed that the highest quality CNTs were obtained for both pretreatment and growth carried out with H2. This gave a high yield of 292%. On the other hand, CNT growth carried out under Ar atmosphere gave higher CNT yield of 368%, however, the CNTs grown with Ar were more defective and had larger diameters. Prime novelty statement We demonstrate a sorbitol added catalysis synthesis method and importance of the ideal growth conditions to improve high quality single walled carbon nanotube yield up to 1500%.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Effect of Different Acidity Modifications on the Activity and Selectivity on H-Zsm5 Zeolites in N-Butene Isomerization(Springer Verlag, 2014) Kılıç, Emre; Yılmaz, SelahattinH-ZSM-5 was modified by silylation [tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and triaminopropyltriethoxysilane], alkali (NaOH), acid (HCl) and ammoniumhexafluorosilicate (AHFS) treatments. The parent and modified zeolite forms were tested in n-butene isomerization. Modifications affected total acidities, the strength of the acid sites, pore sizes and surface areas of the H-ZSM-5 differently. The modifications decreased the conversion obtained by the parent catalyst. TEOS and alkali modifications did not promote formation of isobutene. Pre-alkali treatment before acid treatment increased selectivity to isobutene from 56.0 to 66.7 %, while conversion changed a little, it dropped from 52 to 50 %. AHFS modification provided the highest enhancement in selectivity to isobutene (87.5 %) for which n-butene conversion was dropped by about 10 % compared to H-ZSM-5. This was attributed to a slight modification of the pore size and to the reduction in strong and weak acid sites and generation of new Lewis acid sites.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 4Effects of Catalyst Precursor Type and Preparation Conditions, and Solvent Type on Activity and Selectivity of Pt/Sio2 Catalyst in Citral Hydrogenation(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2011) Depboylu, Can Okan; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Akkurt, SedatIn this study, citral hydrogenation reaction in liquid phase over silica gel supported Pt catalysts was investigated. It was desired to hydrogenate carbonyl group selectively to produce valuable unsaturated alcohols, namely geraniol and nerol. Pt/SiO2 catalysts were prepared by impregnation method. The effects of parameters investigated in the present study included Pt precursor type (hexachloroplatinic acid (HCLPA), platinum II acetylacetonate (PAA)), catalyst activation temperature (350°C and 450°C), catalyst activation without calcination, catalyst washing with 0.1 M NaOH and solvent type (ethanol, 2-pentanol). The catalysts activities and selectivities were affected by the type of precursor and activation temperature. The maximum citral conversion (89.50 percent) was achieved at lower activation temperature (350°C) with PAA precursor based catalyst. It was observed that higher activation temperature provided lower citral conversion but higher selectivity to unsaturated alcohols; increasing the activation temperature to 450°C decreased citral conversion to 26.10 percent. But selectivity to unsaturated alcohols, geraniol and nerol, increased from 7.06 to 54.60 percent. Catalyst washing and 2-pentanol prevented acetal formation. Catalyst activation without calcination gave lower citral conversion (20.84 percent) and selectivity to unsaturated alcohols (30.00 percent). Copyright © 2011 The Berkeley Electronic Press.
