Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 28Colorimetric and Plasmonic Pressure Sensors Based on Polyacrylamide/Au Nanoparticles(Elsevier, 2019) Topçu, Gökhan; Güner, Tuğrul; İnci, Ezgi; Demir, Mustafa MuammerColorimetric stimuli-responsive nanomaterials have emerged as an eminent tool for sensor applications. Among this class of sensing elements, gold nanoparticle-based (Au NP) nanostructures are promising materials due to their plasmonic features. In this study, free-standing flexible polymeric films having intense optical response upon application of mechanical pressure were fabricated based on polyacrylamide (PAAm) and Au NPs. Pressure may cause plasmonic shift most probably due to the disassembly of the clusters from blue to reddish individual particles depending on the extent of pressure. Temperature, time, and extent of pressure were examined in terms of spectral change of Au particles. The sensor films depict working range up to 160 MPa, which shows minor change at elevated temperatures probably due to the stress induced crystallization of PAAm. For practical applications, a simple red-green-blue (RGB) space-based algorithm was presented for smartphone-assisted detection of applied pressure. Moreover, the PAAm/Au composite structure shows self-healing without any additive under ambient conditions even after divided into pieces. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V.

İ.; Polat, HürriyetToxic tannery wastewater(s) (TWW) pose(s) a great risk to the environment. This study explores the potential of mitigating the harmful effects of TWW through sedimentation using clinoptiolite in the presence of various anionic, cationic and non-ionic flocculants with different molecular weights and charge densities followed by encapsulation in a brick structure for stability. Compressive strength (CS), size reduction after firing (SRAF), water absorption (WA) and colouring parameters of bricks were determined. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM)-energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) analyses were conducted on brick bodies. Kinetic leaching experiments were conducted for possible heavy metal release from the bricks. Bricks containing 10 wt% leather waste and 5 wt% clinoptiolite sintered at 800 °C instead of 920 °C possessed similar properties to the standard brick (SB).
