Structural And Dielectrical Behavior Of Polypyrrole/Huntite Composites, Zeynep Türk, Nazlican Şahi̇n, Seyfullah Madakbaş, Ferhat Şen, Kadi̇r Esmer

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

In order to characterize stable composites that will contribute to industrial applications, polypyrrole (PPy)/huntite composites were prepared by the physical method. Polypyrrole (PPy)/huntite composites were produced at various huntite concentrations (10, 20, 30, 40 wt.%). Polypyrrole/huntite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermal Gravimetric Analyses (TGA), Differential Thermal Analyses (DTA), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and dielectrical properties were investigated by Impedance Analyzer at the room temperature. The FTIR spectra show that huntite mineral coordinate with polymers through carbonate groups. TGA results indicate the main cause of mass loss can be moisture in the samples and unreacted pyrrole monomer. …


Improving The Mechanical And Thermal Properties Of Chlorinated Poly(Vinyl Chloride) By Incorporating Modified Caco$_{3}$ Nanoparticles As A Filler Jan 2019

Improving The Mechanical And Thermal Properties Of Chlorinated Poly(Vinyl Chloride) By Incorporating Modified Caco$_{3}$ Nanoparticles As A Filler

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Chlorinated poly(vinyl chloride) (CPVC)/calcium carbonate nanocomposites were successfully prepared by the incorporation of calcium carbonate (CaCO$_{3})$ nanoparticles into the CPVC matrix. The compatibility between the two phases was obtained by surface modification of the CaCO$_{3}$ nanoparticles with stearic acid, leading to improved material performance. The effects of the addition of different amounts of CaCO$_{3}$ nanoparticles to the CPVC on the thermal, mechanical, and morphological characteristics of the CPVC/CaCO$_{3}$ nanocomposites were investigated. The thermal stability of the CPVC/CaCO$_{3}$ nanocomposites was evaluated by thermogravimetric analysis~and differential scanning calorimetry. In addition, the surface texture of the CPVC and the dispersion of the CaCO$_{3}$ …

Synthesis And Properties Of Novel Polymeric Metal-Free And Metallophthalocyanines Containing Peripherally Long 1,2-Bis[(3-Oxapropyl)Oxa]Benzene Derivatives, Ahmet Bi̇lgi̇n, Durmuş Yanmaz, Çi̇ğdem Yağci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

New polymeric phthalocyanine moieties (M = 2H, Zn, Ni, Cu, and Co) were synthesized via polytetracyclomerization reaction of o-bis[3-(3,4-dicyanophenoxy)propyloxy]benzene (3), which can be obtained by the reaction of 4-nitrophthalonitrile with o-bis[(3-hydroxypropyl)oxy]benzene. Aggregation and disaggregation behavior of the polymeric phthalocyanine (5) was studied with some alkali and earth alkali metal cations. Measured intrinsic viscosities of the polymeric phthalocyanines exhibited a substantial decreasing tendency with dilution of the solution. Thermogravimetric analysis was performed under air by using DSC and DTG/TGA techniques and indicated that these polymers have good thermal stability. AC and DC electrical conductivities of the polymeric phthalocyanines were investigated in …


Preparation And Characterization Of A Series Of Thiourea Derivatives As Phase Change Materials For Thermal Energy Storage, Cemi̇l Alkan, Yusuf Tek, Derya Kahraman Jan 2011

Preparation And Characterization Of A Series Of Thiourea Derivatives As Phase Change Materials For Thermal Energy Storage, Cemi̇l Alkan, Yusuf Tek, Derya Kahraman

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of solid-liquid phase change materials, thiourea derivatives, were prepared via condensation of thiourea with the respective carboxyl chlorides (lauroyl chloride, myristoyl chloride, and palmitoyl chloride) and were then characterized by using FT-IR, ^1H-NMR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric (TG) analysis. The thiourea derivatives (1,3-didodecanoyl thiourea, 1,3-ditetradecanoyl thiourea, and 1,3-dihexadecanoyl thiourea) were structurally symmetric and had long alkyl groups to crystallize. Thermal analysis by DSC and spectroscopic investigation by FT-IR spectroscopy were performed on the samples before and after thermal cycling tests to determine thermal reliability. The maximum latent heats of melting and freezing of the thiourea derivatives …

Synthesis And Properties Of New Optically Active And Organosoluble Poly(Ester-Imide)S Containing L-Valine Moieties In The Main Chain By Direct Polycondensation Reaction, Khalil Faghihi, Meisam Shabanian, Mohsen Hajibeygi

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

New optically active poly(ester-imide)s (PEIs) containing bicyclo[2,2,2]oct-7-ene-2,3,5,6-tetracarboxylic diimide in the main chain were prepared by the reaction of N,N'-(bicyclo[2,2,2]oct-7- ene-2,3,5,6-tetra carboxylic)-bis-L-valine 4 as a diacid monomer with various aromatic diols 5a-g in a system of tosyl chloride (TsCl), pyridine (Py), and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF). The reactions with TsCl were significantly promoted by controlling alcoholysis with diols, in the presence of catalytic amounts of DMF, to give a series of optically active poly(ester-imide)s. The resulting new polymers were obtained in good yields and inherent viscosities, ranging between 0.36 and 0.62 dL g^{-1}, and were characterized with FT-IR and ^1H-NMR spectroscopy, including specific …


Computational Study Of Vibrational Dynamics Of Binary Mg_{0.70}Zn_{0.30} Metallic Glass By A Pseudopotential Theory, Aditya M. Vora Jan 2008

Computational Study Of Vibrational Dynamics Of Binary Mg_{0.70}Zn_{0.30} Metallic Glass By A Pseudopotential Theory, Aditya M. Vora

Turkish Journal of Physics

The vibrational dynamics of Mg_{70}Zn_{30} metallic glass has been studied at room temperature in terms of phonon eigen-frequencies of longitudinal and transverse modes employing three different approaches proposed by Hubbard-Beeby (HB), Takeno-Goda (TG) and Bhatia-Singh (BS). The well-recognized model potential is employed successfully to explain electron-ion interaction in the metallic glass; instead of using experimental values of the pair correlation function g(r), which is generated from the computed pair potential. The present findings of phonon dispersion curve are found in fair agreement with available theoretical as well as experimental data. The thermodynamic properties obtained by HB and TG approaches are …

Anhydrous Proton Conductive Polystyrene Sulfonic Acid Membranes, Ayhan Bozkurt

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A novel anhydrous proton conducting polymer electrolyte based on polystyrene sulfonic acid, PSSA and benzimidazole (BnIm) was synthesized. The PSSA-BnIm interactions were studied by FT-IR. The thermal properties of the blends were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TG) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The proton conductivities of these materials were measured by AC impedance technique. The conductivities of these materials increase with increasing BnIm content and temperature and maximum conductivity was found to be approximately 5 \times 10^{-4} S/cm at 150 °C.

Proton Conduction In Pvpa --Benzimidazole Hybrid Electrolytes, Fatma Sevi̇l, Ayhan Bozkurt

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Proton conducting properties of benzimidazole (BnIm) doped poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) were studied. The doping ratio, x, which is the number of moles of BnIm per mole of polymer repeat unit, varied from 0.5 to 2. The samples were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and impedance spectroscopy. The IR study indicates the protonation of heterocyclic units from the "free nitrogen" side. The proton conductivity and thermal stability of the blends increase with x. Maximum conductivity of PVPA x BnIm blends is approximately 10^{-3} S/cm at 150 °C.
