Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 13Energy storage performance of nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide/co-doped polyaniline nanocomposites(Springer, 2022) Altınışık, Hasan; Getiren, Bengü; Çıplak, Zafer; Soysal, Furkan; Yıldız, NurayThe design and exploration of carbon-based electrode materials have become highly significant for developing supercapacitor technology, which has attracted considerable attention in energy storage systems. Here, nitrogen-doped reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO) – Polyaniline (PANI) nanocomposites were synthesized by a facile two-step method in which in situ polymerization of aniline monomer was performed on hydrothermally synthesized N-rGO nanosheets in DBSA and H2SO4 medium for co-doping of PANI chains. The effects of various acid concentrations (DBSA:H2SO4 0.5 − 0.25:1 n/n) and N-rGO:aniline ratios (N-rGO:aniline 1:4–10 m/m) used in the preparation of the electrode material on the capacitive properties were investigated. It is found that the co-doped N-rGO-PANI nanocomposites exhibit a high specific capacitance of 346.3 F g− 1 at 1 A g− 1, remarkable rate capacity (99.9%, 1–10 A g− 1) and excellent cycle stability at 5 A g− 1 (81.3%, 5000 cycles) in a two-electrode system. As a result, constructing co-doped PANI chains and N-doped rGO provided a viable and simple way to improve the capacitive performances of supercapacitors.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 9Recyclability of Cspbbr3 Quantum Dot Glass Nanocomposites for Their Long-Standing Use in White Leds(2022) Vahedigharehchopogh, Naji; Erol, Erdinç; Kıbrıslı, Orhan; Genç, Aziz; Çelikbilek Ersundu, Miray; Ersundu, Ali ErçinThe embedding of CsPbBr3 perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) in an inorganic glass matrix not only protects them against chemical, thermal, and photodegradation but also provides an effective strategy to isolate toxic elements such as Pb from the environment for a long period of time. Herein, the recyclability of glass is another important feature that contributes to environmental sustainability. Hence, effective and efficient recycling technologies are needed for the widespread use of PQD glass nanocomposites (GNCs) in many commercial applications. However, studies on the recyclability of CsPbBr3 PQD GNCs have not been conducted so far. Therefore, in this work, we investigate the structural, thermal, optical, and photoluminescence properties of recycled CsPbBr3 PQD GNCs to assess their suitability as long-standing and reusable luminescent materials. For this purpose, the recyclability of GNCs is checked by three repeated melt-quenching and subsequent heat-treatment processes. Although the color emission properties of GNCs under the same heat-treatment conditions show a slight variation after each recycling step, PQD GNCs almost retain their PLQY even after the last recycling step. Ultimately, a prototype white light-emitting diode is constructed by coupling recycled PQD GNCs and a commercial red phosphor on top of a blue LED chip showing high-performance with CIE color coordinates of x = 0.3228, y = 0.3470 and a CCT value of 5920 K. The findings of this work reveal that the recyclability of PQD GNCs holds great promise for a more sustainable technology.Article Citation - WoS: 34Citation - Scopus: 36Effects of Organo-Modified Clay Addition and Temperature on the Water Vapor Barrier Properties of Polyhydroxy Butyrate Homo and Copolymer Nanocomposite Films for Packaging Applications(Springer Verlag, 2018) Akın, Okan; Tıhmınlıoğlu, FundaPolymer nanocomposites, based on bacterial biodegradable thermoplastic polyester, poly(hydroxy-butyrate) (PHB), poly(hydroxyl-butyrate-co-hydroxy-valerate) (PHBHV), and commercial organo-modified montmorillonite (OMMT-Cloisite 10A) were prepared by solution casting method. This work aims to investigate the effect of Cloisite 10A type clay addition on the water vapour permeability properties of PHB/OMMT, and PHBHV/OMMT nanobiocomposite films. Temperature dependence of water vapor permeabilities of the films were also evaluated at various temperatures, and semi empirical permeability models were used to predict the permeability of polymer systems as a function of clay concentration and aspect ratio of nanoplates. Moreover, thermal, optical, and mechanical properties of the composites were examined by using varieties of techniques including differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and thin-film X-ray diffractometer (TF-XRD) respectively. Test results indicated that addition of highly intergallery swollen Cloisite 10A to the PHB/PHBHV, reduced the water vapor permeability up to 41 and 25% compared to native PHB and PHBHV films, respectively. Regarding the all mechanical properties measured, the maximum improvement was achieved for 3 wt% clay loaded samples for both PHB and PHBHV polymer composites. An increase of about 152 and 73% in tensile strength and of 77 and 18% in strain at break was achieved for PHB and PHBHV polymers, respectively. As a result of X-ray diffraction analysis, exfoliated structure was achieved at low clay loaded sample (1% w/w), however at higher concentration (3% w/w) the structure found as intercalated. Therefore, it is an evident that enhancement of characteristic properties highly depend on the dispersion level of clay particles in polymer matrix. The results obtained in this study show the feasibility of improvement of the properties of PHB based polymers with incorporation of nanoclay.Article Citation - WoS: 59Citation - Scopus: 64Interfacial Thermal Resistance Between the Graphene-Coated Copper and Liquid Water(Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Pham, An T.; Barışık, Murat; Kim, BohungThe thermal coupling at water-solid interfaces is a key factor in controlling thermal resistance and the performance of nanoscale devices. This is especially important across the recently engineered nano-composite structures composed of a graphene-coated-metal surface. In this paper, a series of molecular dynamics simulations were conducted to investigate Kapitza length at the interface of liquid water and nano-composite surfaces of graphene-coated-Cu(1 1 1). We found that Kapitza length gradually increased and converged to the value measured on pure graphite surface with the increase of the number of graphene layers inserted on the Cu surface. Different than the earlier hypothesis on the "transparency of graphene," the Kapitza length at the interface of mono-layer graphene coated Cu and water was found to be 2.5 times larger than the value of bare Cu surface. This drastic change of thermal resistance with the additional of a single graphene is validated by the surface energy calculations indicating that the mono-layer graphene allows only ∼18% van der Waals energy of underneath Cu to transmit. We introduced an "overall interaction strength" value for the nano-composites based the quantitative contribution of pair interaction potentials of each material with water into the total surface energy in each case. Similar to earlier studies, results revealed that Kapitza length shows exponentially variation as a function of the estimated interaction strength of the nano-composite surfaces. The effect of Cu/graphene coupling on thermal behavior between the nano-composite with water was characterized. The Kapitza length was found to decrease significantly with increased Cu/graphene strength in the case of weak coupling, while this behavior becomes negligible with strong coupling of Cu and graphene.Article Citation - WoS: 91Citation - Scopus: 113Rheological and Dynamic-Mechanical Behavior of Carbon Nanotube/Vinyl Ester-Polyester Suspensions and Their Nanocomposites(Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Seyhan, Abdullah Tuğrul; Gojny, F. H.; Tanoğlu, Metin; Schulte, K.Rheological properties of vinyl ester-polyester resin suspensions containing various amounts (0.05, 0.1 and 0.3 wt.%) of multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with and without amine functional groups (-NH2) were investigated by utilization of oscillatory rheometer with parallel plate geometry. Dispersion of corresponding carbon nanotubes within the resin blend was accomplished employing high shear mixing technique (3-roll milling). Based on the dynamic viscoelastic measurements, it was observed that at 0.3 wt.% of CNT loadings, storage modulus (G′) values of suspensions containing MWCNTs and MWCNT-NH2 exhibited frequency-independent pseudo solid like behavior especially at lower frequencies. Moreover, the loss modulus (G″) values of the resin suspensions with respect to frequency were observed to increase with an increase in contents of CNTs within the resin blend. In addition, steady shear viscosity measurements implied that at each given loading rate, the resin suspensions demonstrated shear thinning behavior regardless of amine functional groups, while the neat resin blend was almost the Newtonian fluid. Furthermore, dynamic mechanical behavior of the nanocomposites achieved by polymerizing the resin blend suspensions with MWCNTs and MWCNT-NH2 was investigated through dynamic mechanical thermal analyzer (DMTA). It was revealed that storage modulus (E′) and the loss modulus (E″) values of the resulting nanocomposites increased with regard to carbon nanotubes incorporated into the resin blend. In addition, at each given loading rate, nanocomposites containing MWCNT-NH2 possessed larger loss and storage modulus values as well as higher glass transition temperatures (Tg) as compared to those with MWCNTs. These findings were attributed to evidences for contribution of amine functional groups to chemical interactions at the interface between CNTs and the resin blend matrix. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies performed on the cured resin samples approved that the dispersion state of carbon nanotubes with and without amine functional groups within the matrix resin blend was adequate. This implies that 3-roll milling process described herein is very appropriate technique for blending of carbon nanotubes with a liquid thermoset resin to manufacture nanocomposites with enhanced final properties.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14Anomalous Transmittance of Polystyrene-Ceria Nanocomposites at High Particle Loadings†(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013) Parlak, Onur; Demir, Mustafa MuammerOptical nanocomposites based on transparent polymers and nanosized pigment particles have usually been produced at low particle concentrations due to the undesirable optical scattering of the pigment particles. However, the contribution of the particles to many physical properties is realized at high concentrations. In this study, nanocomposites were prepared with transparent polystyrene (PS) and organophilic CeO2 nanoparticles using various compositions in which the particle content was up to 95 wt%. The particles, capped by 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MPS), were dispersed into PS and the transmittance of the spin-coated composite films was examined over the UV-visible region. When the particle concentration was <20 wt%, the transmittance of the films showed a first-order exponential decay as the Rayleigh scattering theory proposes. However, a positive deviation was observed from the decay function for higher particle contents. The improvement in transmittance may be a consequence of interference in the multiple scattering of light by the quasi-ordered internal microstructure that gradually develops as the particle concentration increases.
