    Effect of pH and Hydration on the Normal and Lateral Interaction Forces Between Alumina Surfaces
    (2006) Polat, Mehmet; Sato, Kimiyasu; Nagaoka, Takaaki; Watari, Koji
    Normal and lateral interaction forces between alumina surfaces were measured using Atomic Force Microscopy-Colloid Probe Method at different pH. The normal force curves exhibit a well-defined repulsive barrier and an attractive minimum at acidic pH and the DLVO theory shows excellent agreement with the data. The normal forces are always repulsive at basic pH and the theory fails to represent the measurements. Lateral forces are almost an order of magnitude smaller in the basic solutions. These differences, which have important implications in the study of stability and rheology, are attributed to the hydration of the alumina surface at basic pH. © 2013 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    Investigating the Behavior of D-Glucose, D-Fructose, and D-Allulose in Aqueous Media by Molecular Dynamics Simulations
    (Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2025) Bugday, Zinnur Yagmur; Bayramoglu, Beste; Oztop, Halil Mecit
    Isomeric monosaccharides may have different hydration behaviors, leading to distinct physicochemical properties in solutions. In this work, the aqueous behavior, structure, and hydration properties of D-allulose, Dglucose, and D-fructose were investigated as a function of concentration by molecular dynamics simulations. This is the first computational study investigating D-allulose compared to its two isomers. The dynamics were analyzed through self-diffusion coefficients; hydration was characterized by hydrogen bond (HB) analyses. Radial distribution functions were used to probe water structuring around sugar oxygens. Results show the hydration number and the fraction of bound water in solution were the highest for glucose, followed by fructose and allulose. The C3 epimerization of fructose into allulose highly promotes the allulose pyranoses to form intramolecular HBs, significantly limiting their water-holding capacity. This may possibly explain the favorability of furanose forms over pyranose forms in aqueous allulose solutions, opposing glucose and fructose in solution.

    Nano-sized nickel borate hydrate were precipitated from equimolar mixtures of dilute nickel nitrate and borax solutions at 25°C. Produced nickel borate samples were characterized by TGA, DSC, FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, SEM, Elemental Analysis (EDX), Titration (nickel determination by EDTA, B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> determination by NaOH), Particle Size Distribution, and Dehydration. The particles with 55 nm, 80 nm and 70 nm sizes were obtained for the cases without template, with span 60 and PEG 4000 in the reaction mixture respectively. The empirical formula of the vacuum dried precipitates were NiO.1.3B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.6 H<inf>2</inf>O, NiO.1.2B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.6 H<inf>2</inf>O and NiO.1.0B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.4 H<inf>2</inf>O for the cases without template, with span 60 and PEG 4000. The density of the nickel borate hydrates was around 2 g/ml and they had a color described by 157, 199 and 158 in RGB color scale. The nickel borate hydrates were amorphous in structure and no sharp peaks related to a crystal structure was present in their x-ray diffraction diagram. The effect of presence of span 60 and PEG 4000 were not significant on the particle size and chemical composition of the nanoparticles. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.

    A Microstructural Study of Surface Hydration on a Magnesia Refractory
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Sütçü, Mücahit; Akkurt, Sedat; Okur, Salih
    Hydration of the surface of a periclase refractory was studied in a controlled humidity atmosphere (92% relative humidity) at 26 °C for up to 92 h. The effect of humidity on the specimens was examined using a scanning probe microscope (SPM) and a scanning electron microscope (SEM), which showed that the degree of hydration was noticeably less in the intergranular bond phase compared to the periclase crystallites. The SPM study indicated significant growth of hydrates on the refractory grain surface. Growth rate of the hydrate layer was least on (0 0 1) orientation, higher for the (1 0 3) orientation, and highest for the (1 0 1) oriented grain. The rate of loss of refractory phases by hydration on a (1 0 1) oriented grain was 4.53 nm/h. This material loss may be insignificant for a bulk brick, but is a serious threat for a magnesia castable consisting of fine magnesia powder due to large surface area exposed to humidity or water itself. © 2010 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.
