    Electrospun Polyacrylonitrile (pan) Nanofiber: Preparation, Experimental Characterization, Organic Vapor Sensing Ability and Theoretical Simulations of Binding Energies
    (Springer, 2022) İnce Yardımcı, Atike; Yağmurcukardeş, Nesli; Yağmurcukardeş, Mehmet; Çapan, İnci; Erdoğan, Matem; Çapan, Rıfat; Tarhan, Özgür; Açıkbaş, Yaser
    In this study, polyacrilonitrile (PAN) nanofibers obtained by electrospinning were directly coated on the surface of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) and were investigated for their sensing characteristics against chloroform, dichloromethane and carbon tetrachloride as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). PAN nanofibers were characterized by SEM, DSC, Raman Spectroscopy, and FT-IR and the results indicated that beadless and regular nanofibers with the average diameter of 182.7 ± 32 nm were obtained. Kinetic measurements indicated that electrospun PAN nanofibers were sensitive to the VOCs and they were appropriate for sensing applications of chlorine compounds. The reproducibility of PAN nanofiber sensor was also shown in this study. The results revealed that the diffusion coefficients of VOCs increased with the order carbontetrachloride < dichloromethane < chloroform which was supported by the density functional theory (DFT) simulations that revealed the highest binding energy for chloroform.

    Biocomposite Scaffolds for 3d Cell Culture: Propolis Enriched Polyvinyl Alcohol Nanofibers Favoring Cell Adhesion
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2021) Bilginer, Rumeysa; Özkendir İnanç, Dilce; Yıldız, Ümit Hakan; Arslan Yıldız, Ahu
    The objective of this work is generation of propolis/polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) scaffold by electrospinning for 3D cell culture. Here, PVA used as co-spinning agent since propolis alone cannot be easily processed by electrospinning methodology. Propolis takes charge in maximizing biological aspect of scaffold to facilitate cell attachment and proliferation. Morphological analysis showed size of the electrospun nanofibers varied between 172-523 nm and 345-687 nm in diameter, for non-crosslinked and crosslinked scaffolds, respectively. Incorporation of propolis resulted in desired surface properties of hybrid matrix, where hybrid scaffolds highly favored protein adsorption. To examine cell compatibility, NIH-3T3 and HeLa cells were seeded on propolis/PVA hybrid scaffold. Results confirmed that integration of propolis supported cell adhesion and cell proliferation. Also, results indicated electrospun propolis/PVA hybrid scaffold provide suitable microenvironment for cell culturing. Therefore, developed hybrid scaffold could be considered as potential candidate for 3D cell culture and tissue engineering.

    Polarized Emission From Cspbbr3 Nanowire Embedded-Electrospun Pu Fibers
    (IOP Publishing Ltd., 2018) Güner, Tuğrul; Topçu, Gökhan; Savacı, Umut; Genç, Aziz; Sarı, Emre; Demir, Mustafa Muammer
    Interest in all-inorganic halide perovskites has been increasing dramatically due to their high quantum yield, band gap tunability, and ease of fabrication in compositional and geometric diversity. In this study, we synthesized several hundreds of nanometer long and ∼4 nm thick CsPbBr3 nanowires (NWs). They were then integrated into electrospun polyurethane (PU) fibers to examine the polarization behavior of the composite fiber assembly. Aligned electrospun fibers containing CsPbBr3 NWs showed a remarkable increase in the degree of polarization from 0.17-0.30. This combination of NWs and PU fibers provides a promising composite material for various applications such as optoelectronic devices and solar cells.
