Book Part Calcium Soap Lubricants(CRC Press, 2015) İzer, Alaz; Kahyaoğlu, Tuğçe Nefise; Balköse, DevrimThe reparation and characterization of calcium stearate (CaSt2) and a lubricant by using calcium stearate were aimed at in this study. Calcium stearate powder was prepared from sodium stearate and calcium chloride by precipitation from aqueous solutions. CaSt2 and the Light Neutral Base oil were mixed together to obtain lubricating oil. It was found that CaSt2 had a melting temperature of 142.8 °C and in base oil it had a lower melting point, above 128 °C. It was dispersed as lamellar micelles as the optical micrographs had shown. From rate of settling the size of dispersed particles were found to be 1.88 µm and 0.11 µm for lubricants having 1% and 2% CaSt2, respectively. The friction coefficient and wear scar diameter of base oil 0.099 and 1402 nm were reduced to 0.0730 and 627.61 nm respectively for the lubricant having 1% CaSt2. Lower wear scar diameter (540 nm) was obtained for lubricant with 2% CaSt2. CaSt2 improved the lubricating property of the base oil but did not improve its oxidative and thermal stability. © 2015 by Apple Academic Press, Inc.Book Citation - Scopus: 5Editors’ Foreword(CRC Press, 2017) Figoli, A.; Hoinkis, Jan; Altinkaya, Sacide Alsoy; Bundschuh, JochenThe book focuses on Application of Nanotechnology in Membranes for Water Treatment but not only provides a series of innovative solutions for water reclamation through advanced membrane technology but also serves as a medium to promote international cooperation and networking for the development of advanced membrane technology for Universal well-being and to achieve the common goal of supplying economically, environmentally and societally sustainable freshwater and better sanitation systems. This book is unique because the chapters were authored by established researchers all around the globe based on their recent research findings. In addition, this book provides a holistic coverage of membrane development for water treatment, from the membrane preparation and characterizations to the performance for specific processes and applications. Since that water scarcity has become a global risk and one of the most serious challenges for the scientific community in this century, the publication of this book is therefore significant as it will serve as a medium for a good reference of an alternative solution in water reclamation. This book will provide the readers with a thorough understanding of the different available approaches for manufacturing membranes both with innovative polymeric systems and inorganic nano-materials which could give enhanced functionalities, catalytic and antimicrobial activities to improve the performance of the existing membranes. It will be useful for leading decision and policy makers, water sector representatives and administrators, policy makers from the governments, business leaders, business houses in water treatment, and engineers/ scientists from both industrialized and developing countries as well. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Book Part High-Performance Materials and Engineered Chemistry(CRC Press, 2018) Türk, Merve; Gümüş, Barış; Ustun, Fatma; Balköse, DevrimNano-sized nickel borate hydrate were precipitated from equimolar mixtures of dilute nickel nitrate and borax solutions at 25°C. Produced nickel borate samples were characterized by TGA, DSC, FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, SEM, Elemental Analysis (EDX), Titration (nickel determination by EDTA, B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf> determination by NaOH), Particle Size Distribution, and Dehydration. The particles with 55 nm, 80 nm and 70 nm sizes were obtained for the cases without template, with span 60 and PEG 4000 in the reaction mixture respectively. The empirical formula of the vacuum dried precipitates were NiO.1.3B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.6 H<inf>2</inf>O, NiO.1.2B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.6 H<inf>2</inf>O and NiO.1.0B<inf>2</inf>O<inf>3</inf>.5.4 H<inf>2</inf>O for the cases without template, with span 60 and PEG 4000. The density of the nickel borate hydrates was around 2 g/ml and they had a color described by 157, 199 and 158 in RGB color scale. The nickel borate hydrates were amorphous in structure and no sharp peaks related to a crystal structure was present in their x-ray diffraction diagram. The effect of presence of span 60 and PEG 4000 were not significant on the particle size and chemical composition of the nanoparticles. © 2019 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.
