    Influence of Carbon Nanotube Inclusions To Electrical, Thermal, Physical and Mechanical Behaviors of Carbon-Fiber Abs Composites
    (Springer, 2022) Akar, Alinda Öykü; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Tirkeş, Seha; Tayfun, Ümit; Hacıvelioğlu, Ferda
    Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) terpolymer was compounded with short carbon fiber (CF) and carbon nanotube (CNT) using a micro-extruder followed by the injection molding process. Composite samples were fabricated with loading ratios of 20 wt.% CF and 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 wt.% of CNT. Mechanical, electrical, thermo-mechanical, thermal, melt-flow, and structural investigations of ABS-based composites were conducted by performing tensile, impact, hardness, and wear tests, conductive atomic force microscopy (AFM), dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), melt flow rate test (MFR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization techniques, respectively. According to mechanical test data of resultant composites including tensile and impact test findings, CNT additions led to the remarkable increase in tensile strength and impact resistance for CF reinforced ABS composites. The formation of synergy between CNT nanoparticles and CF was confirmed by electrical conduction results. The conductive path in ABS/CF composite system was achieved by the incorporation of CNT with different loading levels. SEM micrographs of composites proved that CNT nanoparticles exhibited homogeneous dispersion into ABS matrix for lower loadings. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

    Polymer Nanofiber-Carbon Nanotube Network Generating Circuits
    (SPIE, 2018) Mutlu, Mustafa Umut; Akın, Osman; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan
    The polymer nanofiber carbon nanotube (CNT) based devices attracts attention since they promise high performance for next generation devices such as wearable electronics, ultra-light weighted appliances and foldable devices. This abstract describes the utilization of polymer nanofibers and CNT as major component of low cost foldable photo-resistor. We use polymer nanofiber as template guiding CNTs to generate nanocircuits and conductive sensing network. The controlled combination of CNTs and polymer nanofibers provide opportunities for device miniaturization without loss of performance. The nanofiber-CNT network based photo-resistor exhibits broad band response 400 to 1600 nm that holding promises for ultra-thin devices and new sensing platforms.

    Tuning Pendant Groups of Polythiophene on Carbon Nanotubes for Vapour Classification
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2017) Tu, Meng-Che; Svm, Hari Krishna; Thilini, Alahakoon; Wallace, Lim Tse Loong; Moochhala, Shabbir; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Palaniappan, Al.; Liedberg, Bo
    Poly(3-alkoxythiophene) (PT) with varying ratios of triethylamine and 1-methyl imidazole pendant groups and horizontally aligned single walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT) are utilized in this study for volatile organic compounds (VOCs) classification. PTs with five different ratios of pendant groups are incorporated with SWCNT and are evaluated as chemiresistor arrays for analysis of VOCs such as ethanol, acetone, toluene, chloroform, isoprene and ethylene. Varying PT pendant groups yielded differential SWCNT current responses attributed to their chemical affinities for the VOCs tested. Principal component analysis (PCA) for vapour classification illustrated that the vapour responses are separable, thus, highlighting vapour discrimination ability of SWCNT with controlled ratios of PT pendant groups. The proposed methodology is a facile VOC classification approach for two main reasons; (i) PT could easily modified with various pendants groups containing appropriate chemical moieties for preferential interaction with various VOCs and (ii) increasing the number PTs with appropriate pendant group modifications would provide additional inputs to PCA thereby enabling capturing and assaying of a wide range of VOCs.

    Electrochemical Investigation of Biomolecular Interactions Between Platinum Derivatives and Dna by Carbon Nanotubes Modified Sensors
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2010) Yapaşan, Ece; Çalışkan, Ayfer; Karadeniz, Hakan; Erdem, Arzum
    The biomolecular interactions of platinum derivatives widely used as anticancer drugs: cis-diamminedichloroplatinum(II) and oxaliplatin with calf thymus double-stranded DNA were studied using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in combination with single-walled carbon nanotubes modified graphite electrode (SWCNTs-GE) and unmodified graphite electrode (bare GE). The performance of these biomolecular interactions were explored at the electrode surface by monitoring the changes at guanine oxidation signal in terms of optimum interaction times by comparing the results of SWCNTs-GE with bare one. The features of these electrochemical sensors based on carbon nanotubes for monitoring of biomolecular interactions were discussed and compared with the earlier conventional ones. © 2009 Elsevier B.V.
