    Methylene Blue Adsorption From Aqueous Solutions To Flexible Poly(vinyl Chloride) Silica Composites
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2015) Yetgin, Senem; Ulutan, Sevgi; Balköse, Devrim
    Methylene blue (MB) adsorption studies were performed with poly(vinyl chloride)-(dioctyl phthalate)-silica composites, which were obtained by using plastisol-plastigel technology. The films were flexible, having elastic modulus of 1.0-1.5 GPa. Diminishing MB concentration in the aqueous phase was followed as the adsorption process advanced by using visible spectroscopy. Contributions of the individual components of the composites to adsorption were also investigated. Although the MB adsorption capacity was extensively high for silica, it was moderate for the composite, most likely owing to the occlusion of pores of silica by plasticizer to some extent. The improvement of MB adsorption capacity of the composites as the silica ratio increased was explicitly deduced from the optical microscopy photographs. The diffusion coefficients of MB through the composites were 5 × 10-13, 6 × 10-13, and 3 × 10-13 m2 s-1 with regression coefficients of 0.73, 0.89, and 0.88 for 0, 2, and 16% silica-containing composites, respectively. Because of the slow diffusion of MB in poly(vinyl chloride)-silica composites, using them as dynamic column adsorbent was not practical. However, these versatile plastics can be used as plastic labels, colored clothing, leather substitutes, antimicrobial medical devices, and laser printable surfaces.

    Characterization of Hollow Chemical Garden Fibers From Metal Salts and Water Glass
    (Springer Verlag, 2002) Balköse, Devrim; Özkan, Fehime; Köktürk, Uğur; Ulutan, Sevgi; Ülkü, Semra; Nişli, Gürel
    Hollow fibers formed from water glass and metal salts of IIA(Ca), VIIB(Fe, Co, Ni) and IB(Cu) groups were characterised in this study. Fragile fibres obtained herein broke down into small pieces during isolation and drying. Quantitative information about morphology, chemical composition and surface structure of the fibres were obtained. The diameter and wall thickness of the fibers were around 50 μ and 3 μ. respectively. They had particulate inner and smooth outer surfaces. Fibers had variable composition with metal (II) oxide/SiO2 ratio in the range 0.31 to 1.02. While group VIIB metal (II) fibres were amorphous, group IIA and IB metal (II) fibers were partially crystalline All the fibres had pores both in micro pore and meso pore region. The B.E.T. surface area fron N2 adsorption data was in the range of 10-249 m3 g-1 and 8-176 m2 g-1 from Langmuir an B.E.T. models respectively.

    Dynamics of Water Vapor Adsorption on Humidity-Indicating Silica Gel
    (Elsevier Ltd., 1998) Balköse, Devrim; Ulutan, Sevgi; Çakıcıoğlu Özkan, Seher Fehime; Çelebi, Sedat; Ülkü, Semra
    Well-defined CoCl2-containing silica gels were prepared by impregnation of the aqueous solution of the salt to silica hydrogel, drying and aging methods. Silica gels having 392-437 m2 g-1 surface area and 0.21-0.37 cm3 g-1 pore volume and having an average particle size of 3 mm were obtained. Aging in CoCl2 solutions decreased the surface area of silica gels from 540 cm2 g-1 to 392-430 m2 g-1 and pore volume from 0.27 to 0.21-0.23 cm3 g-1 for CoCl2 concentration smaller than 0.28 mol dm-3 in silica gel. Adsorbed water desorbed from the gels absorbing 1917-2555 J g-1 energy as determined by differential scanning calorimetry. The CoCl2-containing gels were successfully used in dynamic column experiments, with linear relation between velocities of inlet air and movement of blue to pink boundary. The colour change also makes the detection of the defects in column filling which causes air channelling
