    Barım, Esra

    Bu çalışmada, işlenilebilirlik ve termal kararlılık gerektiren uygulamalar için polimer kompozit malzemeler çalışılmıştır. Aynı zamanda, enerji depolama uygulamaları için dielektrik özellikleri araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla poli(N-vinil karbazol-ko-etil metakrilat), P(NVC-ko-EMA), kopolimeri serbest radikal polimerizasyonu yoluyla sentezlenmiş, termal ve dielektrik özelliklerini geliştirmek için grafit (GR) ile kompozitleri hazırlanmıştır. Kopolimerin bileşimi 1H-NMR spektroskopisi ile belirlenmiş, yapılan hesaplamalar bileşiminde %56 NVC ile %44 EMA birimlerinin olduğunu ortaya koymuştur. P(NVC0.56-ko-EMA) ve kompozitlerinin DSC analizleri, polimerin 119.98 oC olan camsı geçiş sıcaklığının, grafit eklenmesi ile düştüğünü göstermiştir. TGA analizlerinde, polimere kıyasla grafit katkılı kompozitlerin termal kararlılıklarının daha yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Hem kopolimerin hem de ağırlıkça %10 grafit içeren kompozitinin termal bozunma kinetiği Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) ve Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) yöntemleriyle incelenmiştir. Hesaplamalar, GR katkılamasının kopolimerin termal ayrışma aktivasyon enerjisi değerini düşürdüğünü göstermiştir. Yapılan dielektrik ölçümlerinde, kompozitlerde artan GR konsantrasyonu ile dielektrik sabiti (Ɛ') ve dielektrik kayıp (Ɛ'') değerlerinin arttığı belirlenmiştir.

    Effect of Nano Titanium Dioxide on the Electrical and Thermal Properties of Poly(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl Methacrylate) for Dielectric Materials

    Barım, Esra; Torgut, Gülben

    The increasing application areas of energy storage devices in recent years make it necessary to produce materials with sufficient efficiency. In this study, composites of poly(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate) P(TFEM) homopolymer with nano titanium dioxide (TiO2 NPs) were prepared for applications of these devices requiring thermoelectric properties, and their thermal, dielectric, and electrical properties were investigated. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that TiO2 NPs in all composites limited the thermal diffusion of TiO2 NPs in the polymer matrix and increased the thermal stability of P(TFEM) from 341°C to 361.5°C. As dielectric properties, the dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss (ε″), AC conductivity (σac), and real (Z′) and imaginary (Z″) components of impedance of the composites containing TiO2 NPs were evaluated as functions of frequency and different weight percentages of TiO2 NPs. Increases in ε′ and ε″ at up to 15 wt% TiO2 NPs suggested increased dipole polarization. At 100 Hz, the ε″ value of P(TFEM) increased from 3.2 × 10−2 to 1.1 × 10−2, σac increased from 4.98 × 10−10 to 1.00 × 10−8, Z′ increased from 3.67 × 1010 to 8.66 × 1010, and Z″ increased from 2.09 × 108 to 4.42 × 108. Furthermore, ε′, ε″, and impedance decreased with increasing frequency for both P(TFEM) and TiO2 NPs composites, while σac increased with increasing frequency.

    Demirelli, Kadir; Barım, Esra; Tuncer, Hülya; Dere, Ayşegül; Canbay, Canan Aksu; Karaduman, Oktay; Al-Sehemi, Abdullah G.; Al-Ghamdif, Ahmed A.; Yakuphanoğlu, Fahretttin

    The synthesis of poly[4-(4-vinylbenzyl)oxy)phthalonitrile-co-styrene] [P(VBOPN5 %-co-St)] was carried out by free radical polymerisation at 60 °C. The successful formation of a green coloured single-chain polymer molecule with the formation of cobalt phthalocyanine (SCP-CoPc) was performed at 140–150 °C in the presence of dilute cyclohexanol. The characterization of SCP-CoPc was confirmed by FT-IR and UV/vis spectroscopic techniques. The absorption filtration process of the SCP-CoPc polymer/Sudan III composite was investigated. The introduction of Sudan III into the SCP-CoPc polymer matric strongly affected the optical transmission spectrum of the composite films. The optical transmission measurements of the SCP-CoPc/Sudan III thin film show a high absorption in the visible region (400–800 nm). In the SCP-CoPc/Sudan III composites, the optical band gaps (Eg1 and Eg2) of each of its components has changed significantly. The Eg1 and Eg2 were found to be between 1.90 and 2.83 eV, respectively. Depending on the sudan III content, a wide range from 600 nm to 730 nm indicates complete absorption filtration. The dc electrical conductivity and dielectric behavior of the SCP-CoPc/Nanografene (NG) 6 wt% nanocomposite increased with increasing temperature. From the dc conductivity plot, the Ea values of I. and II. regions were found to be 0.75 eV and 0.27 eV, respectively and it was found that the calculated activation energy obeyed the Arrhenius relationship. The refractive index and the optical permittivity of SCP-CoPc/NG 6 wt% have been estimated.

    Demirelli, Kadir; Dere, Ayşegül; Barım, Esra; Tuncer, Hülya; Yakuphanoğlu, Fahrettin

    MXene based ternary composite photonic device was fabricated and characterized for the detection of different illuminations. The single chain polymer-cobalt phthallocyanine (SCP-CoPc) carrying metallised pthalocyanine macro ring was used as a polymer for the preparation of ternary composite. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) were used to differentiate MXene/ZnO/SCP-CoPc composite prepared. The presence of Ti, C, O, Zn and Co elements in the structure of the composite was confirmed by EDX. The electrical properties of planar interdigital coated MXene/ZnO/SCP-CoPc (1:1:1 by wt) were investigated for photovoltaic application. The photo-generated carriers contribute to the current flow, and the linear photoconductivity behaviour in current measurements with different illuminations such as 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 mW/cm2 indicates the possible photo device use of MXene/ZnO/SCP-CoPc nanocomposite. The photocurrent increased from 20 mA/cm2 to 100 mA/cm2 with the light intensity at 0.5 V was tuned from 28 to 280 μA. The forbidden energy gap (Eg) value of the MXene/ZnO/SCP-CoPc ternary composite from optical measurements was found to be 2.36 eV. Experimental results showed that the presence of SCP-CoPc and ZnO (zinc oxide) in the ternary nanocomposite increased the ε' and ε" values of MXene. The ε′ and ε″ of the ternary composite is 13.0, 26217 at 1 kHz and room temperature, respectively. The current-time results suggest that MXene based ternary composite photonic device is a self driven photodevice as the device can detect light without any external voltage bias.

    Polyaniline-carbon dot (CD/PANI) composites were prepared via in-situ oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of carbon dots, with specific concentrations carefully controlled during synthesis. The composite was characterized using spectroscopic (FT-IR), morphological (TEM, SEM) and electrical methods. Impedance analysis was employed to investigate the transport behavior of charge carriers in the frequency range of 500 Hz to 10 MHz at 25 °C. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the dielectric properties of the CD/PANI composite, including dielectric constant, dielectric loss, loss factor, AC conductivity, admittance, impedance, and Cole–Cole plots. The dielectric constant of the CD/PANI composite was 6.97 for 1 kHz at 0.5 V and 12.87 for 1 kHz at 5 V. The values indicate that the increase in the dielectric constant of nanocomposite with increasing voltage. This suggests that CD/PANI composite is a dielectric material whose dielectric constants are controlled by applied voltage. Notably, the dielectric constant increased with rising applied voltage and decreased with increasing frequency. Current-voltage (I-V) measurements revealed that the composite's dielectric parameters could be tuned by varying the applied DC voltage, suggesting its potential as a voltage-dependent dielectric (VDD) material for capacitor applications. Furthermore, the enhanced electrical conductivity indicates that the CD/PANI composite is a promising candidate for next-generation dielectric devices.

    Influence of Congored on the Optical, Dielectric and Thermal Behavior of Polymethyl Methacrylate and Polyvinyl Chloride

    Yıldırım, Turgay; Barım, Esra; Tuncer, Hülya; Demirelli, Kadir

    Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)/Congo Red (CR) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC)/CR composite films were prepared on optical glass by the drop method for optical measurements and also prepared as tablets under pressure for dielectrical measurements. The optical transmission spectra measurements for PMMA and PVC film doped with CR showed a highly absorption in the ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) optical range (at 353 nm and 518 nm) and considerably blocking in broad visible range (190 nm–640 nm). PMMA/CR and PVC/CR composite films containing congo red at a concentration of 1 wt% showed maximum absorption bands at 290 nm and 416 nm, but their transmittance percentages were reasonably reduced compared to those of pure PMMA and PVC. Both of composites indicated high transmittances between 640 nm and 800 nm. The optical constants of the PMMA/CR and PVC/CR composite films such as optical band energy gaps (Eg) estimated using Tauc’s model, refractive index and reflectance (%) were calculated. UV–Vis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Thermogravimetry Analysis (TGA) measurements were used to confirm the breakdown of the -N = N- azo group bonds attached to the aromatic ring as a result of thermal decomposition of CR at 500 °C, and it was suggested that N2 gas was eliminated from the CR above 360 °C. The dielectric plots showed that the dielectric constant increased when the CR is doped up to 70 wt% in the polymer matrices. A further increase in the doping concentration of CR resulted in an increase of the dielectric constant. The dielectric constant decreased with an increase in the frequency for all of the samples. The ac (alternating current) conductivity values of PMMA and PVC showed an increase with increasing CR dopant in the polymer composites, while the ac conductivity values were found to be values between those of the pure polymers and CR.

    Synthesis, Characterization, Optical and Thermal Properties of P(NVC-co-BZMA) Copolymer and Its ZnO Composites

    Barım, Esra

    Recent studies have paid particular attention to polymer-nanoparticle composite materials considering they have a number of interesting properties, which include optical, thermal, electrical, and others (Reyna-Gonzalez et al., 2009; Yakuphanoglu et al., 2010). In this study, a free radical polymerization process was used to create a copolymer of N-vinylcarbazole (NVC) and benzyl methacrylate (BZMA) at 25–75 mol% each. The procedure was conducted at 70°C with azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) acting as the initiator. Nano zinc oxide powders were then added to composites at three different ratios of 5%, 10%, and 15% weight of the copolymer. In order to better understand the structures of the P(NVC-co-BZMA) and its composites, FT-IR, 1H NMR, and UV spectroscopic techniques were also implemented. The optical characteristics of both the pure copolymer and its composites were examined. In the visible region, the composite containing 15% nano ZnO had the highest optical absorbance value. Additionally, the thermal behaviours of the composites and copolymers were analysed.

    Synthesis and characterization of N-(2-acetyl benzofuran-3-yl) methacryl amide and ethyl methacrylate copolymer/graphite oxide composites and study of their kinetic and electrical properties

    Demirelli, Kadir; Barım, Esra; Tuncer, Hülya; Barım, Gamze; Abubakar, Abdullahi Musa

    Copolymers of N-(2-acetylbenzofuran-3-yl) methacrylamide (BFMAA) and ethyl methacrylate (EMA) were prepared by radical copolymerization. The composition of copolymers was estimated by 1H-NMR spectroscopy. The composites of P(BFMAA39-co-EMA) [COP1] and P(BFMAA15-co-EMA) [COP2] loaded 18 wt% graphite oxide (GO) were prepared utilizing Ultrasonic Homogenizer Sonicator Processor. The FT-IR, DSC, TGA and SEM techniques were used in the characterization of the copolymers and composites. The thermal degradation behavior of COP1 was investigated by FT-IR studies of the partially degraded copolymer. And, this copolymer was able to form a four-member amide ring and imidization via intramolecular while being heated above 340 °C. Dynamic TG analysis under argon gas was used to investigate the thermal decomposition processes of pure COP1 and COP1/GO. Two degradation models including the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose methods were used to determine the apparent activation energy of the copolymer and its composite for approximately 65% of thermal decomposition occurred between 200 and 400 °C. The results also showed that average activation energy between 111.69 and 134.25 kJ/mol was obtained. The estimated activation energy values make it possible to build a simpler approach to expose the thermal decomposition behavior of copolymer and its composite. Dielectric and electrical behaviors of the copolymer composites having a semiconductor behavior filled with graphite oxide (GO) were investigated. The activation energy values of P(BFMAA15%-co-EMA)[COP2]/GO 18 wt% and COP1/GO 18wt% from dc conductivities were 0.182 eV and 0.245 eV, respectively.
