    Influence of Calcination Temperature on Microstructure and Surface Charge of Membrane Top Layers Composed of Zirconia Nanoparticles
    (Springer Verlag, 2015) Erdem, İlker; Çiftçioğlu, Muhsin
    The purpose of the research is to investigate the changes in microstructure and physicochemical characteristics, mainly surface charge (i.e. zeta potential) of zirconia membrane top layer during calcination. Zirconia is one of the most commonly preferred materials for ceramic membrane top layers due to its superior durability. The physicochemical properties of the top layer composed of submicron / nano particles is necessary not only for Donnan exclusion but also for dynamics of membrane fouling. In the present research the possibility of preparation of zirconia top layers with varying surface charge with changing calcination temperature was shown and a correlation between phase transformation and surface charge was determined.

    Surface Modification of Polysulfone Based Hemodialysis Membranes With Layer by Layer Self Assembly of Polyethyleneimine/Alginate-heparin: a Simple Polyelectrolyte Blend Approach for Heparin Immobilization
    (Springer Verlag, 2013) Yaşar Mahlıçlı, Filiz; Alsoy Altınkaya, Sacide
    This study intends to improve blood compatibility of polysulfone (PSF) membranes by generating a nonthrombogenic surface through heparin immobilization. To achieve this task, the support membrane prepared from a blend of PSF and sulfonated polysulfone (SPSF) was modified with layer by layer (LBL) deposition of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and alginate (ALG) and heparin blended with ALG was immobilized only on the outermost surface of the LBL assembly. The results have shown that the adsorption of human plasma proteins and platelet activation on the LBL modified membranes decreased significantly compared with the unmodified PSF and PSF-SPSF blend membranes. Furthermore, blending ALG with a small amount of heparin remarkably prolonged the APTT values of heparin free PEI/ALG coated membranes. It is envisaged that the use of a blend of HEP and ALG only in the terminating layer of the LBL assembly can be an economical and alternative modification technique to create nonthrombogenic surfaces.
