    Allyl Phosphonium Salt-Modified Clay for Photocured Coatings: Influence on the Properties of Polyester Acrylate-Based Coatings
    (WILEY, 2015) ÇAKMAKÇI, EMRAH; Zeytuncu, Bihter; Cakmakci, Emrah; Kahraman, Memet Vezir
    In this study, bentonite clay was modified with a phosphonium salt and this modified clay was used to prepare polyester acrylate based coatings to improve their flame retardancy and mechanical properties. Photocured composites were prepared with 1, 2, and 3 wt% phosphonium salt modified clay and for comparison 1 wt% nonmodified clay containing composites were also prepared. Modified clay displayed good dispersion properties due to its increased basal spacing. Composites were characterized by FT-IR and XRD measurements. According to XRD results, it was found that the modified clay was exfoliated in the composites. Furthermore, we investigated the effect of allyl phosphonium salt modified clay on the thermal, mechanical, and flame retardant properties of polyester acrylate based composites coatings. When compared with neat clay containing coatings, modified clay containing photocured coatings exhibited increased modulus and enhanced thermal properties due to increased crosslinking density. Moreover, the presence of the phosphonium salt enhanced the flame retardancy of the polyester based coatings. POLYM. COMPOS., 36:946-954, 2015. (c) 2014 Society of Plastics Engineers

    Preparation and drug release properties of lignin-starch biodegradable films
    (WILEY-V C H VERLAG GMBH, 2012) OGAN, AYŞE; Calgeris, Ilker; Cakmakci, Emrah; Ogan, Ayse; Kahraman, M. Vezir; Kayaman-Apohan, Nilhan
    Starch is one of the most commonly available natural polymers which are obtained from agro-sources. It is renewable and abundant in nature. Unfortunately due to its poor mechanical properties and hygroscopic nature, there are some strong limitations to the development of starch-based products. Usually blends of starch are prepared and plasticized with glycerol to improve some of its properties. In this study, lignin was extracted from hazelnut shells and investigated as a potential additive for starch biofilms. The structural characterization of hazelnut lignin was performed by employing UV spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Lignin was blended with corn starch in different ratios to obtain biofilms. Mechanical and thermal properties of the biofilms were enhanced as the lignin amount was increased in the formulations. Water absorption tests were performed at pH 2.0, 4.0, and 6.0. The percent swelling values of the starch/lignin films increased as pH increased. Also, the biofilm exhibiting the best properties was chosen for the drug release studies. Biofilms showed a fast ciprofloxacin (CPF) release within an hour and then the drug release rate decreased. A pH dependent drug release mechanism was also observed according to KoshnerPeppas model. The drug release increased with a decrease in pH.

    Photocurable cyanate ester containing hybrid coatings by an anhydrous sol-gel technique
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2012) KAHRAMAN, MEMET VEZİR; Bayramoglu, Gulay; Ahbab, Ibrahim; Kahraman, M. Vezir; Gungor, Atilla
    This work reports the synthesis and characterization of hybrid coatings obtained by UV curable anhydrous sol-gel process. Chemical structure of the products was confirmed using spectroscopic methods such as infrared and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The properties of the hybrid coatings such as thermal and mechanical properties were investigated in detail by scanning electron microscope, thermogravimetric analysis, and mechanical measurement. Cure kinetics of the coating formulations was investigated by differential scanning photo-calorimetry (Photo-DSC). Cross cut adhesion, pendulum hardness, gloss, pencil hardness. MEK rub test were also performed to measure the coating performance of the hybrid coatings. The results indicate that the addition of the appropriate amount of CPM and sol-gel can effectively improve the thermal and mechanical properties. (C) 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Synthesis and characterization of polyimide/hexagonal boron nitride composite
    (WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2012) KAHRAMAN, MEMET VEZİR; Kizilkaya, Canan; Mulazim, Yusuf; Kahraman, Memet Vezir; Apohan, Nilhan Kayaman; Gungor, Atilla
    Polyimide (PI)/hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) composites were produced via the thermal imidization procedure from solution mixtures of a polyamicacid, which is prepared from 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride and 3,3'-diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DADPS) in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), and alkoxysilane functionalized h-BN. The structure, thermostability, thermal behavior, and surface properties of the resulting materials were characterized by means of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The thermal characteristics of PI/h-BN films were better than the pure PIs. The physical and mechanical properties of the films were evaluated by various techniques such as contact angle, chemical resistance, and tensile tests. The flame retardancy of the composite materials was also examined by the limiting oxygen index (LOI). The experiments showed that the LOI values of PIs increased from 32 to 43 for the materials containing hexagonal boron nitride. (C) 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2012

    Preparation and Thermal Properties of Polyethylene Terephthalate/Huntite-Hydromagnesite Composites
    (WILEY, 2016) KAHRAMAN, MEMET VEZİR; Basturk, Emre; Madakbas, Seyfullah; Karadogan, Betul; Kahraman, Memet Vezir
    In this report, it was aimed to the improve thermal stability of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by adding huntite/hydromagnesite minerale. PET/huntite/hydromagnesite composites were prepared by adding various proportions of huntite/hydromagnesite to PET. The chemical structures of the composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. Thermal properties of the composites were determined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Glass-transition temperatures and char yields increased with the increase of the huntite/hydromagnesite content in the composites. The surface morphologies of the composites were investigated by a scanning electron microscopy. The obtained results proved that the composite system is more thermally stable than the pure PET itself. (C) 2015 Society of Plastics Engineers

    Thermal and neutron shielding properties of (B2O3)-B-10/polyimide hybrid materials
    (SPRINGER, 2011) KAHRAMAN, MEMET VEZİR; Mulazim, Yusuf; Kizilkaya, Canan; Kahraman, Memet Vezir
    In this study, (B2O3)-B-10/polyimide (PI) hybrid materials were synthesized with the aim to improve their thermal stability and neutron shielding properties. 3,3'-Diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DADPS) reacted with 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic dianhydride (BTDA) in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and mixed with amine functionalized (B2O3)-B-10 to prepare a series of poly (amic acid), meanwhile, corresponding PIs were obtained via the thermal imidization procedures. The morphologies and structures of the prepared hybrid materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The thermooxidative and flame retardancy properties of the PI films were examined by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and limiting oxygen A +/- ndex (LOI). The experimental results showed that as the amount of functionalized (B2O3)-B-10 was increased, flame retardant properties of the hybrid films were increased. Hybrid materials were also irradiated with thermal neutrons. The neutron shielding properties increasing depends on the amount and the distribution of the B-10 isotope.

    Removal of Ag(I) from Aqueous Solutions by Thiol-ene-Based Hydrogel and Its Application to Radiographic Films
    (SPRINGER, 2014) KÖK YETİMOĞLU, ECE; Firlak, Melike; Kahraman, Memet Vezir; Yetimoglu, Ece Kok
    The thiol-ene-based P(Penta3MP4/PEGDA/AAc) hydrogels were prepared by UV curing technique, then characterized and used as adsorbents for the investigation of the effect of process parameters such as pH of solution, contact time, and initial concentration of solution, on the removal of Ag(I) from aqueous solution. The results indicate that the adsorption of Ag(I) ions from aqueous solutions is strongly dependent on pH under experimental conditions. Both Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to experimental data, and the results show that the adsorption process is well fitted to the Langmuir isotherm model. Selectivity, reusability, and applicability of hydrogels to radiographic film waste were investigated.

    Effects of boron nitrite in thermoplastic polyurethane on thermal, electrical and free volume properties
    (SPRINGER, 2019) TAV, CUMALİ; Dumludag, Fatih; Yener, Murat Y.; Basturk, Emre; Madakbas, Seyfullah; Kahraman, Vezir; Umer, Muhammad A.; Yahsi, Ugur; Tav, Cumali
    The effects of various filler amounts of boron nitride (BN) on surface morphology, DC and AC conductivity and free volume properties of thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) were investigated using FTIR, TGA, DSC, SEM, PALS and conductivity (DC and AC) measurements. The free volume properties, electrical measurements and surface morphology of TPU/BN were found to be dependent on temperature and weight percentages of BN content. When one weight percentage of BN was added in TPU, the glass transition temperature jumped to 69.42 degrees C from -1 degrees C. Increasing BN weight percentages caused the glass transition temperature of the TPU/BN composites to decrease slightly. Morphological measurements indicated that agglomerations occurring throughout the TPU/BN composites did not cause remarkable effects on their thermal stabilities. Orthopositronium lifetime (or free volume) and intensity increased significantly as a function of temperature, but with respect to BN weight percentages in TPU, they showed a peak with a highest value at about 2% BN content. Similarly, DC and AC conductivity measurements were carried out on TPU with and without BN content at temperatures ranging from 23 to 105 degrees C in dark under vacuum and in the frequency range of 40Hz-100kHz. The DC and AC conductivity values with increasing BN weight percentages showed the similar behavior as free volume fraction that had a peak at about 2% BN content.
