Phase Transition Of Hydrolyzed Polyacrylamide Gels In Aqueous Solutions Of Poly(Ethylene Glycol), Nilhan Kayaman, Oğuz Okay, B. M. Baysal Jan 1997

Phase Transition Of Hydrolyzed Polyacrylamide Gels In Aqueous Solutions Of Poly(Ethylene Glycol), Nilhan Kayaman, Oğuz Okay, B. M. Baysal

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Hydrolyzed polyacrylamide gels immersed in aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) of molecular weight 300 exhibit a discontinuous volume change upon continuous increase of the PEG concentration in the external solution. As the duration of hydrolysis increases, that is, as the proportion of the ionic groups on the network chains increases, the critical concentration of PEG required for a discontinuous volume change rises and, also, the magnitude of the volume collapse becomes larger. Experimental results indicate that the gel collapse in PEG solution is due to the osmotic deswelling of the ionic gel rather than due to a complex formation …


A Quantum-Chemical Investigation On 5,5'-Bi(1h-1.2,4-Triazole)), A. A. İki̇zler, R. Abbasoğlu, N. Saltek, M. Şeri̇fova Jan 1997

A Quantum-Chemical Investigation On 5,5'-Bi(1h-1.2,4-Triazole)), A. A. İki̇zler, R. Abbasoğlu, N. Saltek, M. Şeri̇fova

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The conformational analysis of flexible 5,5'-bi(1H-1,2,4-triazole) molecule containing various reaction centers has been performed by the semiempirical methods MNDO,AM1 and PM3, and the internal rotation barrier calculated. The most stable conformation of the molecule has been determined to be the planar trans conformation. According to the three methods, 5,5'-bi(1H-1,2,4-triazole) molecule (C) has been found to be relatively more stable than its tautomer 3,3'-bi(1H-1,2,4-triazole)(B) and to be less stable than its other tautomer 3,3'-bi(4H-1,2,4-triazole)(A). Moreover, the electronic properties of 5,5'-bi(1H-1,2,4-triazole) molecule and the effect of conformational changing on electronic and geometric properties have also been investigated. To determine the protonation sites …


High Rates Of Fluorescence Quenching Between Perylene Dodecyldiimide And Certain \Pi-Electron Donors, S. İçli̇, H. İci̇l, İ. Gürol Jan 1997

High Rates Of Fluorescence Quenching Between Perylene Dodecyldiimide And Certain \Pi-Electron Donors, S. İçli̇, H. İci̇l, İ. Gürol

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Perylene bis-n-dodecyl diimide is found to quench fluorescenc emissions of naphthalene, phenanthrene and dihydrocarbazolocarbazole molecules at rates of 4.4\times10^{11}, 2.8\times10^{12} and 2.5\times10^4 M^{-1} sec^{-1}, in respective order of aromaticity. These unusulally high rates of fluorecence quenchings are attributed to Perrin model static quenching and presence of electron transfer through singlet excited state of perylene diimide. Calculated free energy of electron transfer, \Delta G_{ET}=-120.5 kJ/mol, between perylene diimide and dihydrocarbazolocarbazole is taken as evidence for observation of high fluorescence quenching rate for carbazolocarbazole molecule. Keywords: Fluorescence quenching, Photoenergy transfer, Perylene diimide and Carbazolocarbazole


Possible Roles Of Transition Metals In Cloudwater Relative To The Solar Short-Wave Radiation Absorption Anomaly, Xudong Huang, S. Sinan Keski̇n, Francis Pink, İlhan Ölmez Jan 1997

Possible Roles Of Transition Metals In Cloudwater Relative To The Solar Short-Wave Radiation Absorption Anomaly, Xudong Huang, S. Sinan Keski̇n, Francis Pink, İlhan Ölmez

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Measurements of the absorption of solar short-wave radiation by clouds exceed those predicted by theoretical calculations. In order to understand the roles of minor and trace species in this absorption anomaly, cloudwater samples were collected from individual precipitating clouds and analyzed for trace metals and anionic species. Two generalized approaches were used to assess the direct impact of the absorption of solar short-wave radiation by transition metals and/or their anionic complexes. Additionally, it was suggested that iron and manganese may act as catalyts in the formation of sulfate aerosols which efficiently scatter solar radiation.

The Reliability Of Jung-Biggs-Moorhead Method For Cholesterol Determination In The Presence Of Ergosterol, Lemi Türker, Şahinde Demi̇rci̇, Marjan Akdağ Jan 1997

The Reliability Of Jung-Biggs-Moorhead Method For Cholesterol Determination In The Presence Of Ergosterol, Lemi Türker, Şahinde Demi̇rci̇, Marjan Akdağ

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In the present study, the reliability of Jung-Biggs-Moorhead method for cholesterol determination has been tested in the presence of another steroid, ergosterol. It was observed that presence of ergosterol interferes with the absorbance measurement of cholesterol. When both steroids are present in the sample maximum absorption wavelength are not shifted by the mutual interaction but absorbance values are changed considerably. Therefore this method may be used only for qualitative bu not quantitative analysis for cholesterol in the presence of ergosterol.


Immobilization Of Glucose Oxidase And Urease In Hydrogel Matrices, İhsan Gürel, M.Yakup Arica, Vasıf Hasirci Jan 1997

Immobilization Of Glucose Oxidase And Urease In Hydrogel Matrices, İhsan Gürel, M.Yakup Arica, Vasıf Hasirci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Immobilization of glucose oxidase and urease in hydrogels of 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylae, and N-vinyl pyrrolidone (NVP) was achieved by irradiation (using UV kand \gamma- rays). The effect of radiation on entrapment efficiencies, retention of activities and swelling rates was obtained. To optimize the system, duration of exposure, reaction temperature, co-monomer concentrations, initiator and cross linker compositions were varied. The repeated reusability of the generated products was also tested. It was found that\gamma-irradiation at very low temperatures did not have a detrimental effect on the enzyme activity. Incorporation of more hydrophilic monomer (NVP), influenced matrix morphology and entrapment efficiencies and retained enzyme …


Photoelectron Spectroscopy: A Tool In Sorption Studies, Şefik Süzer, Hasan N. Erten Jan 1997

Photoelectron Spectroscopy: A Tool In Sorption Studies, Şefik Süzer, Hasan N. Erten

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Photoelectron spectroscopy using AlK\alpha (h\nu=1486.3 eV) has been applied to study the sorption of Cs^+, Sr^{2+}, Ba^{2+}, Zn^{2+} and Co^{2+} on magnesite kaolinite, smectite and chlorite. From the observed intensities of photoelectron peaks it was determined that in magnesite the sorption affinity of the above ions follow the order: Ba^{2+}>Co^{2+}\congSr^{2+}\congZn^{2+}>Cs^+. The order for the sorption of Ba^{2+} and Cs^+ are also determined as chlorite>magnesite>smectite>kaolinite and smectite>chlorite\congkaolinite>magnesite, respectively.


A Topological Approach To The Stabilities Of Isomeric Hückel And Mobius Type Cyclacenes, Lemi Türker Jan 1997

A Topological Approach To The Stabilities Of Isomeric Hückel And Mobius Type Cyclacenes, Lemi Türker

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Within the constraints of Hückel molecular orbital theory, Hückel and Mobius type cyclacenes were investigated in terms of their angle of total \pi-electron energy, O_{\pi}, and cos O_{\pi} to find out how structural changes affect the stabilities. It has been theoretically deduced that as the number of benzenoid rings (R) increases the isomeric Hückel and Mšbius type cyclacenes should have comparable stabilities, although for low values of R odd-Hückel type and even-Mobius type are predicted to be more stable.


Hydrolysis And Condensation Reactions Of Methacrylate-Modified Aluminum Alkoxides, Ertuğrul Arpaç, Efraim Avşar Jan 1997

Hydrolysis And Condensation Reactions Of Methacrylate-Modified Aluminum Alkoxides, Ertuğrul Arpaç, Efraim Avşar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The hydrolysis of aluminum tri-sec-butoxide and compounds obtained by substituting the larger functional groups for the present alkly groups in Al(O-sec-Bu)_3, and the reaction of these products with a polymerizable organic ligand, i.e. methacrylic acid, were studied together with the hydrolysis reactions of the final products. A good method of preparing high-tech materials and new composites uses organo-substituted silicon esters and/or alkoxides of various elements in a polycondensation process. Introducing a suitable organic network into the inorganic backbone gives desirable properties in new coating materials. The preparation of such materials is possible via the hydrolysis of metal alkoxides. Usually, different …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The dissociation constant of the catechol derivatives 4-nitrocatechol (NCAT), 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,3-DHBA), 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DBHA), 3,4-dihydroxyhenylacetic acid (3,4-DPHA) and 3,4-dihydroxycinnamic acid (3,4-DHCA) were identified in 0.1M NaClO_4 ionic medium, at t=25^{\circ}C, by potentiometry. In addition, the first and second dissociation constants of the salicylic acid derivatives 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-NSA), 4-hydroxysalicylic acid (4-HSA) 5-nitrosalicylic acid (5-HSA) were also determined by potentiometry. Furthermore, the second acid dissociation constants of these ligands were evaluated in I=0.1M NaClO_4 ionic medium, at a temperature of 25^{\circ}C by computer analysis of spectroscopic data.


Application Of The Residue Method To A Mixed Problem, Y. A. Mamedov, M. Can Jan 1996

Application Of The Residue Method To A Mixed Problem, Y. A. Mamedov, M. Can

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, the residue method of separation of variables is applied to a mixed problem which includes the flow of a stratified compresslble fluid and inner gravitational waves of a stratified incompressible fluid for special values of the coefficients of the equation. To apply this method one defines two auxiliary problems. The first one is a spectral problem and the second is a Cauchy problem. Using the solutions of auxiliary problems, an existence and uniqueness theorem is proved for the given mixed problem.

Products And Quotients Of (P,\Sigma)-Absolutely Continuous Operator Ideals^*, Enrique A. Sanchez Perez

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We obtain a generalization of the ideal {\cal M}_{(q,p)} of (q,p)-mixing operators-in the sense of Pietsch- as a consequence of the study of the quotients of (p, \sigma)-absolutely continuous operator ideals {\cal P}_{p, \sigma} -in the sense of Jarchow and Matter-. Inclusions {\cal P}_{p, \sigma} (E,F) \subset {\cal M}_{(q,s)} (E,F) are also investigated, specially for the cases E={\cal C}(K) and E=L_1.


On Surjectivity Of The Arens Homomorphism, S. Alpay, B. Turan Jan 1996

On Surjectivity Of The Arens Homomorphism, S. Alpay, B. Turan

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We define approximate separation and extension properties of a Banach lattice and study the relation between these and topological fullness of the ideal centre. Banach lattices with topologically full ideal centre are characterized as those for which the Arens homomorphism m: Z(E)''\rightarrow Z(E') is surjective. Among the positive operators T:E\rightarrow F between Banach lattices E,F we distinguish nearly Z(E) and Z(F) extremal ones and study their properties.

Certain Classes Of Analytic And Multivalent Functions With Negative Coefficients, M. K. Aouf, A. Shamandy, A.A. Attiyia

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We introduce a subclass K^{*}_{n+p-1}(A,B) of analytic and p-valent functions with negative coefficients. Coefficient estimates, some properties, distortion theorems and closure theorems of functions belonging to the class K^{*}_{n+p-1}(A,B) are determined. Also we obtain radii of close-to-convexity, starlikeness and convexity for the class K^{*}_{n+p-1}(A,B). We also obtain class preserving integral operator of the form F(z)=\frac{c+p}{z^c}\int_0^{z}t^{c-1}f(t) dt, c> -p for the class K^{*}_{n+p-1}(A,B) Conversely when F(z)\,\, \in K_{n+p-1}^{\star} (A,B) radius of p-valence of f(z) defined by the above equation is obtained.


Weak Forms Of Openness Based Upon Denseness, C. W. Baker Jan 1996

Weak Forms Of Openness Based Upon Denseness, C. W. Baker

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

A function is defined to be hardly open provided that the inverse image of each dense subset of the codomain that is contained in a proper open set is dense in the domain. This form of weak openness is shown to be strictly between near feeble openness and somewhat openness. Characterizations and properties of hardly open functions are presented.

On Homogeneous Riemann Boundary Value Problem, K. Kutlu Jan 1996

On Homogeneous Riemann Boundary Value Problem, K. Kutlu

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this work we consider homogeneous Riemann boundary value problem (BVP) on general open rectifiable curves. We prove certain estimates for Cauchy type integrals in terms of local moduli of continuity and local maximum of modulus, which allow us to describe the solvability of Riemann BVP with unbounded oscillating coefficients on a wide class of non-smooth rectifiable Jordan curves.

Rings In Which Strongly Prime Right Ideals Are Finitely Generated, A. Kaya Jan 1996

Rings In Which Strongly Prime Right Ideals Are Finitely Generated, A. Kaya

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Some properties of rings in which every strongly prime right ideal is finitely generated will be investigated, and sufficient conditions for such rings to be right noetherian will be given.
