    Polymeric Thermal Analysis of C+h and C+h+ar Ion Implanted Uhmwpe Samples
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2007) Kaya, N.; Öztarhan, Ahmet M.; Urkaç, Emel Sokullu; Ila, D.; Budak, S.; Oks, E.; Tıhmınlıoğlu, Funda; Muntele, C.
    Chemical surface characterization of C + H hybrid ion implanted UHMWPE samples were carried out using DSC (differential scanning calorimeter) and TGA (thermal gravimetric analysis) techniques. Samples were implanted with a fluence of 10(17) ion/cm(2) and an extraction voltage of 30 kV. The study of TGA and DSC curves showed that: (1) Polymeric decomposition temperature increased, (2) T-m, Delta C-p and Delta H-m values changed while Delta C-p and Delta H-m increased. T-g value could not be measured, because of some experimental limitations. However, the increase in Delta H-m values showed that T-g values increased, (3) the branch density which indicated the increase in number of cross-link (M-c) decreased in ion implanted samples and (4) increase in Delta H-m values indicated increase in crystallinity of implanted surface of UHMWPE samples.

    Indoor Air Quality in Chemical Laboratories
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Ugranlı, Tuğba; Güngörmüş, Elif; Sofuoğlu, Aysun; Sofuoğlu, Sait Cemil
    Chemical laboratories are special microenvironments, in which many pollutants may be found because of the large range and number of chemicals that can be used, while concentrations of some specific ones may relatively be elevated due to high source strengths depending on the type and the number of experiments conducted and the number of people working in the laboratory. Laboratories can be considered as public places for the students whereas they are occupational microenvironments for their staff (technicians, specialists and teaching/research assistants). Hence, laboratory indoor air quality (IAQ) is of importance due to chronic, toxic and carcinogenic health risks for the staff in addition to possible acute effects for both staff and students. This chapter presents background information regarding pertinent indoor air pollutants, factors that determine their concentrations, indoor environmental comfort, a review of the literature on indoor environmental quality in chemical laboratories and measures of IAQ management.

    Rice-Like Hollow Nano-Caco3 Synthesis
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2016) Ülkeryıldız, Eda; Kılıç, Sevgi; Özdemir, Ekrem
    We have shown that Ca(OH)2 solution is a natural stabilizer for CaCO3 particles. We designed a CO2 bubbling crystallization reactor to produce nano-CaCO3 particles in homogenous size distribution without aggregation. In the experimental set-up, the crystallization region was separated from the stabilization region. The produced nanoparticles were removed from the crystallization region into the stabilization region before aggregation or crystal growth. It was shown that rice-like hollow nano-CaCO3 particles in about 250 nm in size were produced with almost monodispersed size distribution. The particles started to dissolve through their edges as CO2 bubbles were injected, which opened-up the pores inside the particles. At the late stages of crystallization, the open pores were closed as a result of dissolution-recrystallization of the newly synthesized CaCO3 particles. These particles were stable in Ca(OH)2 solution and no aggregation was detected. The present methodology can be used in drug encapsulation into inorganic CaCO3 particles for cancer treatment with some modifications.

    Suzuki Cross-Coupling Reaction of Aryl Halides With Arylboronic Acids Catalysed by Pd(ii)-Nay Zeolite
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2003) Bulut, Hatice; Artok, Levent; Yılmaz, Selahattin
    Pd(II)-exchanged NaY zeolite showed high activity in the Suzuki cross-coupling reactions of aryl bromides and iodides without added ligands. The DMF:water ratio, and the type and amount of base were found to be critical for the efficiency of the reaction. The catalyst is reusable after regeneration.
