Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 13Effect of Cnt Incorporation on Pan/Ppy Nanofibers Synthesized by Electrospinning Method(TÜBİTAK, 2020) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Tanoğlu, Metin; Yılmaz, Selahattin; Selamet, YusufIn this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) added polyacrylonitrile/polypyrrole (PAN/PPy) electrospun nanofibers were produced. Average diameters of the nanofibers were measured as 268 and 153 nm for 10 and 25 wt% of PPy contents, respectively. A relatively higher strain to failure values (23.3%) were observed for the low PPy content. When as-grown CNTs (1 and 4 wt%) were added into the PAN/PPy blends, disordered nanofibers were observed to form within the microstructure. To improve the interfacial properties of CNTs/PAN/PPy composites, CNTs were functionalized with H2SO4/HNO3/HCl solution. The functionalized CNTs were well dispersed within the nanofibers and aligned along the direction of nanofibers. Therefore, beads formation on nanofibers decreased. The impedance of the nanofibers was found to decrease with the PPy content and CNT addition. These nanofibers had a great potential to be used as an electrochemical actuator or a tissue engineering scaffold.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Hydrogenation of Citral Over Ni and Ni-Sn Catalysts(TUBITAK, 2008) Aykaç, Hilal; Yılmaz, SelahattinLiquid phase citral hydrogenation over zeolite-supported monometallic Ni and bimetallic Ni-Sn catalysts was studied. The zeolite support materials were Na-Y, Na-mordenite, and clinoptilolite. Ni and Sn contents of the monometallic and bimetallic catalysts were 8.1-9.2 wt% and 0.46 wt%, respectively. The type of the zeolite support affected the activity and selectivity of the catalysts differently. The main product of the citral hydrogenation reaction was citronellal, for both monometallic (84.5% yield) and bimetallic (44.5% yield) catalysts. The addition of promoter increased the selectivity to unsaturated alcohols (geraniol+nerol), i.e. it changed from 0.9% to 6.3% over mordenite and from 0.9% to 2.1% over Na-Y-supported catalysts. Furthermore, activity of the Ni catalysts decreased while the quantity of acetal remained almost constant. Intimate contact between active metal, promoter, and support, and a catalyst with a high concentration of weak acid sites gave high selectivity to geraniol+nerol.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Hydrogenation of Citral Over Pt and Pt-Sn Catalysts(TUBITAK, 2008) Aykaç, Hilal; Yılmaz, SelahattinHydrogenation of citral on monometallic (Pt) and bimetallic (Pt-Sn) catalysts was investigated. It was found that the catalyst activities and product distributions were different over Na-Y and Clino supports. Among monometallic catalysts, Pt/Na-Y was more selective to citronellol (3.9%) and unsaturated alcohols, geraniol and nerol, (14.1%). Sn addition increased the catalyst activities. However, its effect on product distribution differed. Yield of geraniol+nerol changed from 5.1% to 19.7% over Clino. However, selectivity to unsaturated alcohols over Na-Y decreased when it was prepared as a bimetallic catalyst support. Unsaturated alcohol formation was favored when there was a metal support interaction over monometallic catalysts, and metal-promoter interaction over bimetallic catalyst.
