In this study, we report on electrospinning of functional polystyrene (PS) fibers containing cyclodextrin-menthol inclusion complexes (CD-menthol-ICs). Our goal is to develop functional electrospun fibers containing fragrances/flavors with enhanced durability and stability assisted by cyclodextrin inclusion complexation. We have used menthol as a model fragrance/flavor material and CD-menthol-ICs were incorporated in electrospun PS fiber by using three types of CDs: alpha-CD, beta-CD and gamma-CD. Due to complexation of menthol with CDs, we observed that the stabilization of menthol was achieved up to 350 degrees C for all the PS/CD-menthol-IC webs whereas the PS fibers without the CD complex could not preserve volatile menthol molecules. In addition, gamma-CD was more effective for the stabilization and release of menthol at a broad temperature range (100-350 degrees C) when compared to alpha-CD and beta-CD. This study suggested that the electrospun fibers functionalized with CD-ICs are very effective for enhancing the temperature stability of volatile fragrances/flavors and therefore show potentials for the development of functional fibrous materials.

Electrospun polyethylene oxide (PEO) nanofibers containing cyclodextrin inclusion complex Uyar, Tamer; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Besenbacher, Flemming (2011-01-01) In this study, we obtained functional electrospun nanofibers containing stable fragrance/flavor molecule facilitated by cyclodextrin inclusion complexation. Menthol was used as a model fragrance/flavor molecule and we have electrospun poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) nanofibers containing cyclodextrin-menthol inclusion complexes (CD-menthol-IC). We used two different solvent systems; water and water:ethanol and three types of CDs; alpha-CD, beta-CD and gamma-CD in order to find the optimal performance for the sta...
Molecular filters based on cyclodextrin functionalized electrospun fibers Uyar, Tamer; Havelund, Rasmus; Nur, Yusuf; Hacaloğlu, Jale; Besenbacher, Flemming; Kingshott, Peter (2009-04-15) Beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) was successfully incorporated into polystyrene (PS) fibers by electrospinning technique. The subsequent fibrous membranes show potential for efficient removal of organic compound (e.g.: phenolphthalein) from solution by the formation of inclusion complexes with the beta-CD molecules. Since the filtration efficiency of the fiber membranes is highly dependent on the presence and distribution of beta-CD at the surface of the individual fibers, highly sensitive and specific surface s...
Use of split-disk tests for the process parameters of filament wound epoxy composite tubes Kaynak, Cevdet; PARNAS, LEVENT; ŞENEL, FİKRET (2005-08-01) The aim of this study was to investigate processing parameters of continuous fiber reinforced epoxy composite tubes produced by the filament winding technique. For this purpose, split-disk tests (according to ASTM D-2290 standard) were performed for the specimens produced with two different epoxy resin systems, five different fiber materials and five different winding angles. By determining the hoop tensile strength and modulus of these specimens, the effects of three filament-winding processing parameters;...
Fonksiyonel derecelendirilmişs malzemeli kirişlerin karma formülasyon sonlu elemanlarla modellenmesi Sarıtaş, Afşin (null; 2015-08-28) Bu çalışmada, Hu-Washizu-Barr fonskiyoneline dayanan karma formülasyonlu kiriş elemanı türetilmiştir. Geliştirilen eleman fonksiyonel derecelendirilmiş malzemeden (FDM) oluşan kirişlerin titreşim ve doğrusal olmayan malzeme davranışlarının modellenmesinde kullanılacaktır. Eleman formülasyonunda FDM’den dolayı oluşacak rijitlik ve malzeme dağılımındaki farklılıklar karma formülasyonda kuvvet bazlı yaklaşım yapılması sayesinde kiriş tepkisi elastik ve elastik olmayan durumlar altında gerçekçi olarak modellene...
Fiber/matrix interface stress analysis of flax-fiber composites under transverse loading considering material nonlinearity SABUNCUOĞLU, BARIŞ; Cakmakci, Onur; Kadıoğlu, Fevzi Suat (SAGE Publications, 2020-05-01) Distribution of stresses in fiber/matrix interface in UD flax fiber reinforced composites is investigated under transverse loading and compared with conventional synthetic fibers. Micro-scale finite element models with representative volume elements are generated with various fiber packing types and fiber volume ratios. The study is performed for various strain values, which take into account the material nonlinearity of matrix. The results show that significantly lower stress concentrations exist in the ca...
