Balkema Publishers, 2000) Polat, Hürriyet; Polat, Mehmet; İpekoğlu, ÜnerEffect of some chemical and physical variables on the settling rate, final sediment height, sediment viscosity and supernatant turbidity of a clay sample was studied using various polyacrylamide type flocculants. Increasing flocculant concentration significantly increased both the settling rate and sediment viscosity. More importantly, changes in the final sediment, height, hence the packing density, was minimal for all the conditions tested once the sediment was allowed to consolidate. Also, the mode of addition of the polymer, at once or continuous, did not seem to affect any of the parameters measured. Conditioning time seemed to alter the settling rate at low polymer concentrations, but had no effect at high polymer concentrations. However, increasing the conditioning time caused a decrease in the sediment viscosity. Different types of the polyacrylimides generated different settling rates at a given concentration, but the final sediment height was nearly independent of polymer type.Conference Object Solution of the Non-Linear Poisson Boltzmann Theory for the General Case of Dissimilar Double Layers(2006) Polat, MehmetCalculation of the surface potentials, surface charges or electrostatic pressure for interacting colloidal particles is exceedingly important in mineral processing, environmental engineering, ceramic sciences, etc. Such calculations require solving the non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann theory at each plate separation. Though approximate analytical solutions of this theory are available for simplified cases, a general, but compact analytical solution is yet to be developed. A solution with no restrictions on surface potentials or charges is developed in this paper. The expressions developed are straightforward and require as input only the surface potentials at infinite separations.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 12Solubility and Aging of Lead Magnesium Niobate in Water(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetLead magnesium niobate (PMN) is an important relaxor ferroelectric material commonly employed in multilayer capacitor and actuator manufacturing owing to its high dielectric constant and superior electrostrictive properties. However, stability of this material in water is not very well known and there is need for a detailed investigation. In this research, solubility of lead magnesium niobate powders in water was determined as a function of solids concentration. The obtained results showed that the amount of cation leaching from the PMN surface depends on the pH value of the suspension and the solids concentration. The Pb2+ and Mg2+ ion dissolution was very high especially in the acidic pH range. Nevertheless, neither the dissolution mechanism nor the effects of dissolved ions on the stability were the same for those ions. The study provides new aspects on the solubility of perovskite materials which possess more than one soluble cation in their structure.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 9Preparation of the Pb(mg1/3nb2 Films by Aqueous Tape Casting(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetLead magnesium niobate (PMN) is a relaxor ferroelectric material. Because of its high dielectric constant and superior electrostrictive properties it is commonly used in the manufacture of multilayer electronic devices which is typically produced by tape casting. However, preparation of PMN slurry formulations to use in aqueous tape casting process is not investigated in detail yet. Therefore, in this study aqueous PMN formulations were developed for tape casting and its relation with the final properties of PMN films were investigated. The slurries were prepared using poly(acrylic acid)-based comb polymer as the dispersant, nonionic acrylic latex as the binder and the hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose as the wetting agent. The results showed that it is possible to prepare flexible, crack-free PMN films using highly concentrated suspensions without using any plasticizer. The study gives guidelines for the aqueous tape casting of PMN and can be adapted to processing of other multi-component metal oxides.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Influence of Dispersing Agents on the Solubility of Perovskites in Water(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2009) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetIn this study, solubility behavior of lead magnesium niobate (PMN) powders in water was investigated in the presence of pure polyacrylic acid and polyacrylic acid/polyethylene oxide comb polymers. Experiments were performed by measuring the solubility of PMN in terms of the concentration of Pb+2 and Mg+2 ions in supernatant as a function of pH and dispersing agent dosage. The concentrations of the metal ions in supernatant were found to be affected by the dispersant concentration, stirring time and the suspension pH. Results revealed that both dispersing agents enhance the cation dissolution from PMN surface at pH 9 due to weak (reversible) adsorption and complexation of Pb+2 and Mg+2 by carboxylate groups. On the other hand, under acidic conditions cation dissolution from PMN is inhibited and this was attributed to the strong adsorption of dispersing agents onto the powder surface and formation of a dense polymer layer.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 23Adsorption of Anionic Polyelectrolyte and Comb Polymers Onto Lead Magnesium Niobate(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetThis paper presents the results concerning the adsorption mechanism of polyacrylic acid (PAA) and polyacrylic acid/polyethylene oxide (PAA/PEO) comb polymer onto lead magnesium niobate (PMN) powders. In the study adsorption behavior of PAA and PAA/PEO onto PMN surface were determined in aqueous solutions and the influence of pH and ionic strength was investigated. Results showed that adsorption of PAA or PAA/PEO increased with decreasing pH of the suspensions. The increase in the ionic strength or the presence of divalent cations caused an increase in the adsorption of both polyelectrolytes. It was observed that the adsorption reaches a maximum when PAA is fully complexed in solution. On the other hand, the increase in the adsorption of PAA/PEO onto PMN in the presence of monovalent or divalent salt was attributed to the decrease in the electrostatic forces rather than complex formation with the divalent metal ions in solution. Turbidity measurements showed that there is no complex formation between the divalent metal ions and PAA/PEO comb polymers due to shielding effect of the PEO teeth.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Phase Formation and Microstructure of Nd +3 Doped Pb(mg 1/3nb 2/3)o 3 Prepared by Sol-Gel Method(Springer Verlag, 2008) Şakar-Deliormanlı, Aylin; Polat, Mehmet; Çelik, Erdal; Şakar Deliormanlı, Aylin Müyesser; Polat, MehmetThe aim of this study was to investigate the effects of the rare earth element neodymium on the phase formation and microstructural development of relaxor ferroelectric lead magnesium niobate, Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3)O 3 (PMN) system. Perovskite phase PMN powders were prepared using the sol - gel method and the effect of neodymium doping was investigated at different doping levels ranging from 0.1 mol% to 30 mol%. The precursors employed in the sol - gel process were lead (II) acetate, magnesium ethoxide, and niobium (V) ethoxide. All the experiments were performed at room temperature while the calcination temperatures ranged between 800 °C and 1,100 °C. Results showed that it was possible to obtain the pure perovskite phase at 950 °C using the sol - gel method. Nd +3 addition influenced the phase formation and microstructure of the multicomponent system. Pyrochlore was detected along with the perovskite phase above 10 mol% Nd. Results also demonstrated that grain size of the synthesized powders depended on the Nd +3 concentration.Article Citation - WoS: 14Citation - Scopus: 18Rheological Behavior of Pmn Gels for Solid Freeform Fabrication(Elsevier Ltd., 2008) Şakar Deliormanlı, Aylin; Çelik, Erdal; Polat, MehmetLead magnesium niobate (PMN) is a relaxor ferroelectric material and have widespread applications in the manufacture of multilayer electronic devices such as ceramic capacitors, actuators and transducers. The dielectric constant of this electrostrictive material is much higher than the well known ferroelectric barium titanate. However, aqueous processing of PMN is not investigated yet especially for the novel wet shaping fabrication. In this study, concentrated aqueous colloidal PMN gels have been designed to use in the robocasting process. Concentrated PMN suspensions were stabilized by polyacrylic acid and then gelation induced by changing the pH or ionic strength of the suspension or by addition of a cationic polyelectrolyte to the system. Through this procedure it was essential to understand the solid-liquid transition under shear to explore the feasibility of forming without excessive use of polymers. Therefore, rheological response of the samples having a gel network was investigated. Results showed that gelation induced by cationic polyethylene imine or by multivalent salts were successful methods in preparation of PMN gels. However, gelation induced by changing the pH of the suspension was challenging due to ion dissolution from PMN surface.Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Determination of the Particle Interactions, Rheology and the Surface Roughness Relationship for Dental Restorative Ceramics(Elsevier Ltd., 2009) Kes, Mürşide; Polat, Hürriyet; Keleşoğlu, Serkan; Polat, Mehmet; Aksoy, GökhanThe effect of inter-particle interactions on the slurry properties and the final surface roughness of the dental ceramic restoratives was investigated. A commercial dental ceramic powder, IPS Empress 2 veneer, was used as the raw material. The magnitudes of the particle-particle interactions were computed by the DLVO theory for the ceramic slurries of different electrolyte solutions (0.1 M, 0.25 M, 0.5 M, 0.75 M, 1 M NaCl and CaCl2). As expected, the energies of particle-particle interactions were influenced significantly by the presence of electrolytes. These computations demonstrated that addition of electrolytes leads to a progressive depression of the repulsive double layer forces. The absence of these forces should inevitably lead to agglomeration caused by the ever-present van der Waals forces. The rheological measurements carried out using the slurries with same solution properties supported the findings of the DLVO computations. It was found that dental ceramic slurries showed a Newtonian behavior in the absence of electrolytes, which is indicative of little or no agglomeration in the slurry. On the other hand, the same slurries displayed a non-Newtonian, shear thinning behavior in the presence of electrolytes which can be attributed to agglomeration or gelation. Roughness of the ceramic surfaces produced from these slurries was studied by SEM analysis and profilometer measurements. Contact angle studies were also carried out on the same surfaces. It was observed that the surface became rougher initially with electrolyte addition to a maximum, most probably due to formation of isolated agglomerates due to a reduction of the repulsive double layer forces. After reaching a maximum, surface roughness decreased to a much lower value with further increase in electrolyte concentration. This was most probably caused by the formation of a relatively homogeneous, gel-like structure within the extensively agglomerated slurry due to a complete collapse of the double layer.
