    Enhanced Electrocaloric Effect of P(vdf-Trfe) Nanocomposites With Ca and Sn Co-Doped Batio3 Particles
    (Elsevier, 2023) Tokkan, Melike; Demir, Mustafa M.; Adem, Umut
    We report on the enhancemenent of electrocaloric effect in solution cast polymer nanocomposites based on Poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE) 55-45] with Ca and Sn co-substituted BaTiO3 ceramic fillers (Ba0.94Ca0.06Ti0.925Sn0.075O3, BCST). Saturated hysteresis loops and normal ferroelectric behaviour of the copolymer-based nanocomposites-as opposed to the relaxor ferroelectric nature of the terpolymer-based ones-allow the utilization of the indirect method to estimate the electrocaloric properties. Both the dielectric constant and electrocaloric temperature change (AT) increases as the particle content increases. Maximum adiabatic temperature change was obtained as 6.96 K under 900 kV/cm for the 10 vol % BCST containing polymer composite around the Curie temperature of the copolymer (70 degrees C). This relatively large electrocaloric strength is slightly lower than those obtained for terpolymer-based nanocomposites.

    Influence of Surface Modification of Fillers and Polymer on Flammability and Tensile Behaviour of Polypropylene-Composites
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2006) Demir, Hasan; Balköse, Devrim; Ülkü, Semra
    An intumescent system consisting of ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as an acid source and blowing agent, pentaerythritol (PER) as a carbonific agent and natural zeolite (clinoptilolite, Gördes II) as a synergistic agent was used in this study to enhance flame retardancy of polypropylene (FR-PP). Zeolite was incorporated into flame retardant formulation at four different concentrations (1, 2, 5, and 10 wt%) to investigate synergism with the flame retardant materials. Filler content was fixed at 30 wt% of total amounts of flame retardant PP composites. Zeolite and APP were treated with two different coupling agents namely, 3-(trimethoxysilyl)-1-propanethiol and (3-aminopropyl)-triethoxysilane for investigation of the influence of surface treatments on mechanical properties and flame retardant performance of composites. Maleic anhydride grafted polypropylene (MAPP) was used for making polypropylene hydrophilic. Flammability of FR-PP composites was measured by the determination of limiting oxygen index (LOI). The LOI values reached to a maximum value of 41% for mercapto silane treated APP:PER (2:1) PP composite containing 5 wt% zeolite. The tensile strength of composites was increased by the addition of MAPP and elongation at break of composites was increased with silane treatments.
