    Epoxy Matrix Nano Composites: Modulus, Strength and Ductility Enhancement Through Auxeticity of Α-Cristobalite Filler
    (Elsevier, 2023) Güden, Mustafa; Ülker, Sevkan; Movahedi, Nima
    The negative Poisson's ratio (NPR) nano-size ?-Cristobalite particle/epoxy composites were prepared and tensile tested. The elastic modulus and strength of the composites were improved as the particle volume fraction increased from 0 to 0.02. Unlike the conventional particle reinforced composites, the fracture strain increased with the nano ?-Cristobalite addition, an effect which was ascribed to the intrinsic NPR behavior of the filler. © 2023 Elsevier B.V.

    Determination of Activation Energy for Carbon/Epoxy Prepregs Containing Carbon Nanotubes by Differential Scanning Calorimetry
    (SAGE Publications, 2022) Uz, Yusuf Can; Tanoğlu, Metin
    The aim of the present study is the thermal characterization of laboratory-scale carbon fiber/epoxy-based prepregs by incorporating single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). Investigation of the cure behavior of a prepreg system is crucial for the characterization and optimization of the fiber reinforced polymeric (FRP) composite. To affect dispersion characteristics, SWCNTs were functionalized by oxidizing their surface with carboxyl (-COOH) group using an acid treatment. The modified resin system contained 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2 wt. % functionalized SWCNTs (F-SWCNTs). Carbon fiber (CF) reinforced prepregs containing various amount of F-SWCNTs were prepared using drum-type winding technique. FTIR was performed to identify new bonding groups formed after the functionalization of SWCNTs. Cure kinetics of prepregs prepared with/without F-SWCNTs were investigated using isoconversional methods.

    Anticorrosion Coating for Magnesium Alloys: Electrospun Superhydrophobic Polystyrene/Sio2 Composite Fibers
    (TUBITAK, 2018) Horzum Polat, Nesrin; Kap, Özlem; Farzaneh, Amir
    Superhydrophobic nanocomposite coatings for magnesium surfaces with remarkable corrosion resistance were fabricated by electrospinning in the presence of fluorosilane-functionalized silica (SiO2) nanoparticles. The effects of surface-modified silica (mod-SiO2) nanoparticles on the superhydrophobicity and corrosion resistance of polystyrene (PS)/mod-SiO2 fiber coatings were evaluated. The incorporation of the SiO2 nanoparticles endows PS fibers with rough surfaces exhibiting a water contact angle (WCA) of 165◦. The surface wettability, corrosion resistance, and their relation to the inorganic content in the PS fibers and the contact angle of the composite coatings were explored. Analysis of the corrosion results confirmed that the PS/mod-SiO2 coating protected the Mg surface from corrosion. In addition, PS fibers containing mod-SiO2 nanoparticles showed improved hydrophobicity, and excellent corrosion resistance was achieved with PS fibers containing 4 wt% SiO2 nanoparticles.

    Synthesis of Poly-2 Methacrylate-Montmorillonite Nanocomposite Via in Situ Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization
    (Cambridge University Press, 2008) Oral, Ayhan; Shahwan, Talal; Güler, Çetin
    The poly-2-hyroxyethyl methacrylate (PHEMA)/clay nanocomposite was synthesized by in situ atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) from initiator moieties immobilized within the silicate galleries of the clay particles. To produce organically modified montmorillonite (MMT) that has ATRP initiator moiety, a new catalyst that consists of quaternary ammonium salt moiety and an initiator moiety was synthesized. This initiator was intercalated into the interlayer spacing of the MMT. The polymerization reaction was carried out in a mixed solvent system consisting of methyl ethyl ketone and 1-propanol at 50 °C, using the initiator that has been already synthesized with a copper bromide catalyst. The 2, 2′-bipyridyl (bpy) complex was used as ligand. The products were characterized via Fourier transform infrared, nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR, 12C NMR), transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis, and differential scanning calorimetry. © 2008 Materials Research Society.

    Polyglycolide-Montmorillonite as a Novel Nanocomposite Platform for Biosensing Applications
    (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017) Ünal, Betül; Yalçınkaya, Esra Evrim; Gümüştaş, Sıla; Sönmez, Burak; Özkan, Melek; Balcan, Mehmet; Odacı Demirkol, Dilek; Timur, Suna
    In catalytic biosensors, the immobilization of biomolecules in a suitable matrix is one of the vital parameters for obtaining improved systems. Clays, which are intercalated with various organic compounds, have a great tendency to develop biosensors with high stability, sensitivity and reproducibility. Herein, a polymer/clay nanocomposite based on natural silicate montmorilonite (Mt) and a biodegradable polymer polyglycolide (PGA) was prepared and characterized by FT-IR, thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermogravimetric analysis and X-ray diffraction. Then, the resulting matrix was used as a fixation matrix for pyranose oxidase (POx), which was selected as a model enzyme. The bioactive layer was fabricated by immobilization of POx on glassy carbon electrodes by means of PGA-Mt and bovine serum albumin. The POx biosensor revealed a good linear range from 0.01 to 0.5 mM glucose with a LOD of 1.2 μM. After the optimization of the working and preparation conditions, characterization studies were performed for glucose detection. Finally, the PGA-Mt/POx biosensor was confirmed to have detected glucose in beverages without needing any sample pre-treatment.

    Layered Clay/Epoxy Nanocomposites: Thermomechanical, Flame Retardancy, and Optical Properties
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2008) Kaya, Elçin; Tanoğlu, Metin; Okur, Salih
    In this study, layered clay/polymer nano-composites were developed based on epoxy resins and montmorillonite as the nanoplatelet reinforcement. Clay particles were treated with hexadecyltrimethylammonium chloride (HTCA) through an ion exchange reaction. In this way, Na+ interlay er cations of the clay is exchanged with onium cation of the surfactant that turns the hydrophilic clays (MMT) to organophilic (OMMT) characteristics. Thermal analysis results revealed that the glass transition temperature (Tg) and the dynamic mechanical properties including the storage and loss modulus of the neat epoxy resin increases by the incorporation of clay particles. It was also found that flame resistance of the polymer is improved by the addition of the clay particles.
