Epoxy resin is a common adhesive bonding material used to join dissimilar materials, especially in the electronics and aerospace industries. However, its low thermal conductivity and high coefficient of thermal expansion limit the direct use of epoxy in practical applications. In order to improve thermo-mechanical properties, we have prepared a series of epoxy composites using a binary system of hexagonal-boron nitride (h-BN) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3) fillers and analyzed the effect of the ratio of these fillers on the thermal conductivity of composites. While h-BN platelets form the main thermal conductive network, Al2O3 nanoparticles bridge the separated h-BN platelets to build more thermal conductive pathways. We proposed the improving of thermal conductivity as well as the mechanical properties of the epoxy matrix by incorporating h-BN and Al2O3 fillers at an optimum ratio.

Impact modified polystyrene based nanocomposites
Yeniova, Canan Esma; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Chemical Engineering (2009)
Polystyrene, PS, is a preferable polymer in industry, but, its brittle characteristic restricts its utilization. The aim of this study is to improve the impact strength of PS by the help of elastomeric materials SEBS-g-MA and E-BA-GMA. In order to prevent the reduction in the tensile strength of the materials, three different types of organic montmorillonites, MMT, (Cloisite® 30B, 25A and 15A) were used as fillers. Nanocomposite preparation was performed in a co-rotating twin screw extruder. Initially elast...
Production of nano alumoxane from aluminum hydroxide
Sezgiker, Korhan; Gündüz, Güngör; Department of Chemical Engineering (2010)
Alumina (Al2O3) is one of the most widely used engineering ceramic. It can be used in a wide range of applications like electrical/thermal insulation, wear resistance, structural refractories, cutting tools, abrasives, catalyst carriers and coatings. A traditional ceramic process has several steps (i.e. powder synthesis and processing, shape forming, drying, organic burnout and densification). Accessing powders with sizes in the range of a couple of micrometers down to several tens of nanometers is consider...
Determination of degree of mixing in solid rocket propellants
Yeşilırmak, Yener; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Chemical Engineering (2006)
Composite propellants are mainly composed of: crystalline oxidizer, metallic fuel, and polymeric binder. Additives, such as plasticizers, catalysts, bonding agents and curing agents may also be incorporated to propellant compositions in small amounts. These ingredients should be mixed rigorously in order to obtain a uniform microstructure throughout the cast propellant profile. The quality of the propellant mixture has to be determined quantitatively to improve the product quality and to reduce costs. In th...
Zinc borate production in a batch reactor
Gürhan, Deniz; Eroğlu, İnci; Department of Chemical Engineering (2005)
Zinc borate is a flame retardant additive used in polymers, wood applications and textile products. There are different types of zinc borate having different chemical composition and structure. In this study, the production of zinc borate that had the molecular formula of 2ZnO.3B2O3.3,5H2O was studied. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of reaction parameters on the properties of zinc borate that had been synthesized by the reaction of boric acid and zinc oxide at the existence of the seed...
Nanomorphology and fire behavior of polystyrene/organoclay nanocomposites containing brominated epoxy and antimony oxide
Isitman, Nihat Ali; Sipahioglu, B. Melike; Kaynak, Cevdet (Wiley, 2012-06-01)
Organoclay nanocomposites were prepared by ultrasound-assisted solution intercalation technique based on polystyrene containing brominated epoxy and a combination of brominated epoxy and antimony oxide. Aspects of nanomorphology and nanodispersion were investigated by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy whereas flammability and reaction to fire were evaluated using limiting oxygen index, UL-94, and mass loss calorimeter tests. Polystyrene/brominated-epoxy-blend-based nanocomposites showed...
