    Elektrodokuma Lifler Üzerine Konumlandırılmış: Yeni Nesil Metal Katalizörler
    (Bilim ve Ütopya Kooperatifi, 2008) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    Elektrodokuma liflerin oluşturduğu ağsı “nanoyapı”, birçok endüstriyel uygulama için vazgeçilmez bir özellik sunmaktadır. Son birkaç yıl içerisinde gerçekleştirilen akademik çalışlmalarda, bu lifsi yapıların yeni nesil katalitik ürünler için de umut vaat eden malzemeler arasında olduğu gösterilmektedir. Katalizörler, bir kimyasal tepkimenin gerçekleşmesini tetikleyen, kolaylaştıran maddeler olarak tanımlanırlar. Her ne kadar günlük hayatta katalizörlerle karşılaşmasak da, aslında çokça kullandığımız birçok ürünün katalizör kullanılmadan üretilmesi neredeyse imkânsızdır.

    Glycidyl-Methacry Late-Based Electrospun Mats and Catalytic Silver Nanoparticles
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2008) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Uğur, Gökçe; Gülgün, Mehmet A.; Menceloğlu, Yusuf Z.; 03.09. Department of Materials Science and Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology
    P(AN-GMA) and PGMA fibers coated with monodisperse silver nanoparticles have been prepared by a combination of electrospinning and electroless plating. The morphology of the electrospun fibers remains unchanged after surface hydrazination. Oxidation of hydrazine in an ammoniacal solution of AgNO 3 reduces and deposits silver atoms along the fiber surface, which then coalesce to Ag particles. The size of the silver nanoparticles is varied between 20-60 nm. Since the density of the active sites for silver reduction is lower in P(AN-GMA), a smaller particle size could be obtained. The catalytic activity of the silver nanoparticles has been confirmed.

    Hierarchial Coassembly of a Cyanine Dye in Poly(vinyl Alcohol) Fibrous Films by Electrospinning
    (American Chemical Society, 2013) Demir, Mustafa Muammer; Horzum, Nesrin; Özçelik, Serdar; Özçelik, Serdar; Demir, Mustafa Muammer; 04.01. Department of Chemistry; 03.09.

    We report molecular aggregate formation of TTBC (1,1′,3,3′- tetraethyl-5,5′,6,6′-tetrachlorobenzimidazolocarbocyanine) in submicrometer-sized PVA (poly(vinyl alcohol)) fibers by electrospinning. The formation of the molecular aggregate is examined by solution and instrumental parameters of electrospinning. The precursor solution of PVA/TTBC, in the range of 0.016-0.065 wt % is subjected to electrospinning under an electrical field ranging from 0.95 to 1.81 kV cm-1. Both randomly deposited and uniaxially aligned fibers are achieved by using two parallel-positioned metal strips as counter electrode. Photoluminescence and polarized Fourier transform infrared spectroscopies are employed to determine spectral properties of the fibers. H-aggregates are formed within the electrospun fibers, regardless of their alignment, and H- and J-type aggregates coexist in the alternative spin-coated and the cast films. A strongly polarized photoluminescence emission is observed in the direction of uniaxially aligned fibers as a result of the orientation of the H-aggregates along the fiber axis. We demonstrate that electrospinning is a process capable of forming and orienting TTBC aggregates during the structural development of the polymer/dye nanofibers. These fibrous films may potentially find applications in optics and electronics.
