There has been a considerable effort in the last years to decrease the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in organic coatings. The risks to human health and environmental hazards associated with VOCs, governmental directives, and economic factors are the main driving forces behind this effort. One way of achieving less or no VOC containing coating systems is to produce low viscosity resins. Hyperbranched resins owing to their globular structure have low viscosities and are promising materials for decreasing the VOCs. In this research hyperbranched resins having properties close to alkyds were synthesized. Dipentaerythritol, which was used as the core was esterified with dimethylol propionic acid. The hyperbranched polyester was then esterified with the castor oil fatty acids (Castor FA). The hydroxyl group of the ricinoleic acid present in the castor FA was modified with different amounts of linseed oil fatty acids (Linseed FA) and benzoic acid. The chemical characterization of the resins was achieved by FTIR spectroscopy and the thermal properties were determined by DSC. Then, the physical and the mechanical tests were carried out. The resins containing the Castor FA only and 32.5 % Linseed FA in addition to the Castor FA had 24 and 68 Persoz hardness, respectively. The viscosity of the resins decreased from 17.3 Pa?s to 5.8 Pa?s as the amount of the Linseed FA was increased. The resins showed excellent adhesion, gloss, flexibility and formability.

Preparation of ZIF-8 loaded PVA and PES mixed matrix membranes for dehydration of ethanol solutions Şenyurt, Elif İrem; Kalıpçılar, Halil; Yılmaz, Levent; Department of Chemical Engineering (2015) Solvent recovery is an important issue in chemical industry when low product cost is desired and also environmental concerns are considered. The conventional methods for solvent recovery are extractive distillation, adsorption, extraction and absorption. However, these methods require excessive amount of energy, cause product contamination due to additional components and need harsh conditions. Pervaporation separation is independent of the vapor-liquid equilibrium; therefore, it is a suitable technique esp...
Preparation and Characterization of Antibacterial Zeolite-Polyurethane Composites Kamisoglu, K.; Çatman Aksoy, Emine; Akata Kurç, Burcu; Hasırcı, Nesrin; BAÇ, NURCAN (2008-12-05) In this study, antibacterial properties were induced in polyurethane (PU) films by the incorporation of Ag+-loaded zeolites as fillers. The mechanical and thermal properties of the prepared composites were also investigated. For this purpose, two different types of zeolite microparticles, high-silica zeolite beta crystals and low-silica zeolite A crystals, were synthesized. Ag+ was added by ion exchange, and these particles were incorporated into the PU prepolymer, which was prepared from its main component...
Characterization and reactivity studies for chemical loop gasification of high sulfur lignites Kanca, Arzu; Üner, Deniz; Department of Chemical Engineering (2013) The objective of this study was to characterize and to determine the gasification reactivity of Tuncbilek lignites. The ultimate analysis of Tuncbilek lignite revealed that the elemental composition is 37.7% C, 3.6% H, 1.6% N, and 5.4% S, while the proximate analysis indicated 4.7 ± 0.9% moisture 27.9 ± 0.1% volatiles and 37.9 ± 0.2% ash. In this context, four different reactions during gasification namely, pyrolysis, oxidation, hydrogenation, and wet air oxidation were investigated separately. Carbon resid...
Synthesis and characterization of waterborne and phosphorus containing flame-retardant polyurethane coatings Çelebi, Funda; Aras, Leyla; Gündüz, Güngör; Department of Chemistry (2002) In this study, phosphorus containing flame retardant water-dispersed polyurethane paints were produced by incorporating different amounts of phosphorus compound onto the polyurethane main chain. The novel flame retardant compound was synthesized in three steps. In the first step, monobenzalpentaerythritol was produced from benzaldehyde and pentaerythritol. In the second step, phosphorylation of monobenzal pentaerythritol was performed. Final step includes the formation of phosphorus phenyl dihydroxyl from t...
Characterization of non-Fickian moisture absorption in thermosetting polymers Güloğlu, Görkem Eğemen; Altan, M. Cengiz (2015-05-22) © 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.A recently developed moisture absorption model for thermosetting polymers that combines the non-Fickian, diffusion hindrance effects and three-dimensional anisotropy is introduced. The hindered diffusion model is shown to predict both short term Fickian and long term anomalous moisture absorption behavior often observed in thermosetting polymers and their composites. The salient characteristics of long term moisture uptake such as the equilibrium moisture content and the effect of ...
