Conductive composite fabrics were prepared by chemical polymerization of aniline on poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fabrics in the aqueous hydrochloride acid solutions using potassium dichromate as the oxidant. The effect of the polymerization conditions such as temperature, oxidant, aniline and hydrochloride acid concentrations was investigated on the electrical surface resistance and polyaniline (PAn) content of PAn/PET composite fabrics. The maximum PAn content and the lower electrical resistance of composite fabrics were observed at the HCl concentrations of 0.25 M and 1.5 M, respectively. The electrical surface resistance of the PAn/PET composite fabrics was decreased under vacuum five-fold more than the ones kept under in air. The properties of PAn/PET composite fabrics such as density, diameter and moisture regain were also investigated in comparison with the those of pure PET. The conductive composite fabrics were characterized by surface resistance, FTIR and TGA techniques.

Low-temperature chemical synthesis of lanthanum monoaluminate
Taspinar, E; Tas, AC (Wiley, 1997-01-01)
One of the promising candidates for ferroelectric substrate materials, lanthanum monoaluminate (LaAlO3), was successfully synthesized by two separate chemical powder preparation techniques: (i) homogeneous precipitation from aqueous solutions containing urea (CH4N2O) in the presence of nitrate salts, and (ii) self-propagating combustion synthesis from aqueous solutions containing CH4N2O and the respective nitrate salts of lanthanum and aluminum. The submicrometer, spherical-like particles of the precursors ...
Highly Efficient Room Temperature Synthesis of Silver-Doped Zinc Oxide (ZnO:Ag) Nanoparticles: Structural, Optical, and Photocatalytic Properties
Yildirim, Ozlem Altintas; Ünalan, Hüsnü Emrah; Durucan, Caner (Wiley, 2013-03-01)
Synthesis of silver-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Ag) nanoparticles through precipitation method has been reported. The synthesis was conducted at room temperature and no subsequent thermal treatment was applied. ZnO nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), fourier transmission infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and ultraviolet-visible (UVVis) spectroscopy. Detailed crystallographic investigation was accomplished through ...
STUDIES ON IMMOBILIZATION OF UREASE IN GELATIN BY CROSS-LINKING
SUNGUR, S; ELCIN, YM; Akbulut, Ural (Elsevier BV, 1992-01-01)
Urease enzyme was immobilized in photographic gelatin by chemical cross-linking using formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde and chromium (III) acetate. The effects of enzyme and cross-linker concentrations, temperature, incubation time and pH on urea hydrolysis were investigated. Effect of reuse on the activity of immobilized enzyme was also studied. Glutaraldehyde (0.004 M) was the most suitable cross-linker; relative activities within 2.5 months after 24 reuses were stable (about 78%).
IMMOBILIZATION OF ALPHA-AMYLASE INTO PHOTOGRAPHIC GELATIN BY CHEMICAL CROSS-LINKING
BAYRAMOGLU, Z; Akbulut, Ural; SUNGUR, S (Elsevier BV, 1992-01-01)
Alpha-amylase was immobilized into photographic gelatin by chemical cross-linking with chromium (III) acetate and chromium (III) sulphate. Cellulose triacetate film strips, enabled simple handling when coated with an alpha-amylase-gelatin mixture, accomplishing a high degree of durability during consecutive immersions into reaction media. The optimum conditions for pH, substrate concentration, temperature, incubation time and storing conditions of free and immobilized alpha-amylase were determined. The effe...
Synthesis and Characterization of 2-Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate (HEMA) and Methyl Methacrylate (MMA) Copolymer Used as Biomaterial
Vargun, Elif; SANKIR, MEHMET; Aran, Bengi; DEMİRCİ SANKIR, NURDAN; Usanmaz, Ali (Informa UK Limited, 2010-01-01)
A series of poly(methyl methacrylate-co-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PMMA-co-PHEMA), copolymers were synthesized by an emulsion polymerization technique. Copolymer compositions were determined by FT-IR and 1H-NMR spectroscopy. It was found that comonomer ratios used in the recipes were comparable within the actual copolymers. Glass transition temperatures (Tg) of PMMA-co-PHEMA copolymers were varied from 119 degrees C to 100 degrees C by increasing HEMA content. Thermogravimetric analysis showed that the cop...
