    Investigations of Polyamide Nano-Composites Containing Bentonite and Organo-Modified Clays: Mechanical, Thermal, Structural and Processing Performances
    (Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2021) Akar, Alinda Öykü; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Tayfun, Ümit
    Polyamide 6 (PA) matrix was reinforced with Na-activated bentonite, amino functional silane treated bentonite and organo-modified clays at different concentrations. The preparation of composites was carried out using melt-blending method and the test samples were prepared by injection-molding process. Mechanical, thermal, structural and processing investigations of PA based composites were reported performing via tensile, hardness, and impact tests, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and force measurements, respectively. According to mechanical test results, additions of fillers to PA matrix caused slight improvements for tensile strength and modulus parameters. Silane treated BNT exhibited improvement in mechanical results compared to Na-activated bentonite additions. Thermal studies revealed that decomposition and melting temperatures of PA shifted to higher values after inclusion of clay into polymer matrix. Results confirmed that organo-clay and bentonite additions with their lower filling ratios yielded enhancements for the mechanical and thermal performance of polyamide.

    Influence of Carbon Nanotube Inclusions To Electrical, Thermal, Physical and Mechanical Behaviors of Carbon-Fiber Abs Composites
    (Springer, 2022) Akar, Alinda Öykü; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Tirkeş, Seha; Tayfun, Ümit; Hacıvelioğlu, Ferda
    Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) terpolymer was compounded with short carbon fiber (CF) and carbon nanotube (CNT) using a micro-extruder followed by the injection molding process. Composite samples were fabricated with loading ratios of 20 wt.% CF and 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 wt.% of CNT. Mechanical, electrical, thermo-mechanical, thermal, melt-flow, and structural investigations of ABS-based composites were conducted by performing tensile, impact, hardness, and wear tests, conductive atomic force microscopy (AFM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), melt flow rate test (MFR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization techniques, respectively. According to mechanical test data of resultant composites including tensile and impact test findings, CNT additions led to the remarkable increase in tensile strength and impact resistance for CF reinforced ABS composites. The formation of synergy between CNT nanoparticles and CF was confirmed by electrical conduction results. The conductive path in ABS/CF composite system was achieved by the incorporation of CNT with different loading levels. SEM micrographs of composites proved that CNT nanoparticles exhibited homogeneous dispersion into ABS matrix for lower loadings. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
