Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 22Application of Inverse Gas Chromatography To the Measurement of Diffusion and Phase Equilibria in Polyacrylate-Solvent Systems(Elsevier Ltd., 1999) Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Danner, Ronald P.The inverse gas chromatography technique (IGC) was used to determine the partition and diffusion coefficients of ethyl acetate and 2-ethylhexyl acrylate in polyacrylate for both infinite dilution and finite concentrations of solvent. Experiments were performed over a temperature range of 60 to 100°C, more than 100°C above the glass transition temperature of the polymer. The capillary column IGC model previously developed for determining partition and diffusion coefficients of infinitely dilute solvent has been modified to account for the concentration of the solvent in the polymer phase. Thermodynamic data obtained from retention theory and the modified capillary column IGC model are comparedArticle Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 11Use of Clinoptilolite in Ethanol Dehydration(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 1996) Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Ülkü, SemraClinoptilolite-type natural zeolite, which exists in various regions of Turkey, has been experimentally studied. For the ethanol-water-local clinoptilolite system, uptake and breakthrough curves were determined under a nitrogen gas atmosphere. In adsorption kinetics and adsorption equilibrium studies, the effects of particle size, temperature and, amount of zeolite on the uptake rate have been investigated. The breakthrough curves for four different flow rates of ethanol and three different bed heights were determined in dynamic column studies. The results of the experiments show that intraparticle diffusion is the main resistance. The local clinoptilolite is a promising adsorbent for water adsorption from aqueous ethanol.
