Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 12Transparent block copolymer thin films for protection of optical elements via chemical vapor deposition(Elsevier Ltd, 2018) Karabıyık, Merve; Ebil, ÖzgençIn this study, glycidyl methacrylate and 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorodecyl acrylate copolymer p(GMA-co-PFDA) thin-films fabricated via Initiated Chemical Vapor Deposition (iCVD) were investigated as protective coatings on optical BK7 glass substrates and commercial optical filters. Durability tests based on military standards MIL-F-48616 and MIL-C-48497A were performed to evaluate performance of coatings for the protection of surfaces of optical elements. Cross-linked p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer coatings successfully passed all durability tests showing excellent mechanical properties and protection against humidity, salt water, swelling in water, and resistance to organic solvents while providing excellent adhesion to substrate. iCVD process enabled fine tuning of film morphology, mechanical properties and hydrophobicity by controlling the process parameters. Fabricated films were hydrophobic and highly transparent (>98%) in the wavelength range from 300 nm to 1000 nm. Optical transmittance measurements before and after coating process proved that while providing chemical and physical protection, p(GMA-co-PFDA) copolymer thin-films do not cause any detectable change in optical performance of commercial narrow band and wide band filters.Article Analyzing the Surface Properties of Acrylic-Based Water-Soluble Polymers(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2017) Topaloğlu Yazıcı, Demet; Çetinkaya, Hayrullah; Şölener, Musa; Albayrak, AdileThe surface properties of newly synthesized N-methoxy isopropyl acrylamide, N-methoxy isopropyl methacrylamide, cyclo propyl acrylamide, and cyclo propyl methacrylamide polymers were investigated using inverse gas chromatography. The highest dispersive component of the surface energy value was obtained for cyclo propyl methacrylamide at 30°C. The values obtained for all polymers were decreasing with the increasing temperature. The values obtained for the acidic and the basic parameters revealed strong basic characters for the surface of N-methoxy isopropyl methacrylamide and cyclo propyl methacrylamide polymers and weak basic characters for the surface of N-methoxy isopropyl acrylamide and cyclo propyl acrylamide polymers.
