The purpose of this study is to investigate effects of oxidative functionalized and aminosilanized carbon nanotubes on the (1) isothermal and (2) non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of polyamide-6 by DSC analyses, and (3) crystal structure of injection molded specimens by XRD analyses. Nanocomposites were compounded by using melt mixing technique via twin screw extrusion. Due to basically very effective heterogeneous nucleation effect, both increasing amount and surface functionalization of carbon nanotubes by oxidation and aminosilanization resulted in higher relative crystallinity for all three cases. The increases were as much as 40 % for the isothermal and non-isothermal crystallization, and it was up to more than two times in the injection molding. Crystallization parameters and Avrami constants indicated that crystallization rate increases in isothermal crystallization while it decreases in non-isothermal crystallization due to the delayed conformational mobility of polymer chains via physical hindrance of carbon nanotubes. Parameters also revealed that growth mechanism of crystallites might change during isothermal crystallization while there was no significant change during non-isothermal crystallization. XRD deconvolution analyses indicated that during injection molding, due to the constraints of carbon nanotubes only alpha-crystal structure was formed.

Effects of oxidative functionalization and aminosilanization of carbon nanotubes on the mechanical and thermal properties of polyamide 6 nanocomposites
Kaynak, Cevdet (SAGE Publications, 2013-11-13)
The focus of this study is to investigate the effects of oxidative functionalized carbon nanotubes (f-CNTs) and aminosilanized carbon nanotubes (s-CNTs) on the mechanical and thermal properties of polyamide 6 nanocomposites. Oxidation of nanotube surfaces was conducted with sulfuric acid/nitric acid mixture and then aminosilanization was carried out with -aminopropyltriethoxysilane. Nanocomposites were compounded by melt mixing technique and shaped by injection molding. Scanning electron microscopy images r...
Effect of solvent choice on cellulose acetate membrane fabrication by phase inversion and deacetylation by alkaline hydrolysis
Tekin, Fatma Seden; Çulfaz Emecen, Pınar Zeynep; Department of Chemical Engineering (2022-8)
In this study, the effect of solvent choice on cellulose acetate (CA) membrane morphology and performance was investigated to relate this to the thermodynamics and kinetics of phase inversion. Three different solvent systems were used, which are dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), the mixture of DMSO: acetone (DA) and DMSO: acetic acid (DHAc) in the ratio of 1:1. Water was used as non-solvent. Acetone and acetic acid were chosen due to their similar solvent quality for cellulose acetate based on Hansen solubility pa...
Using various techniques to characterize oxidative functionalized and aminosilanized carbon nanotubes for polyamide matrix
Sankal, Secil; Kaynak, Cevdet (2013-01-01)
The main purpose of this study was to reveal usability of various characterization techniques for certain aspects of surface functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Surfaces were first oxidative functionalized by sulphuric acid/nitric acid mixture, then aminosilanized by gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane. Chemical groups formed on carbon nanotubes due to these surface treatments were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy and also energy dispersive sp...
Effects of nanoparticles on the performance of drilling fluids
Bal, Berk; Kök, Mustafa Verşan; Gücüyener, İsmail Hakkı; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2017)
In this master thesis, effects of nanoparticles on the filtration and rheological properties of water-based drilling fluids are experimentally investigated. Four different silica nanoparticles are added into the lignosulfonate and bentonite based drilling fluids. By using data obtained at the end of this research, filtration and rheological properties of nanofluids are analyzed and compared with the base fluids at different temperatures. Two groups of experiments are conducted in this research. In the first...
Effect of thermal treatments and palladium loading an hydrogen sorption characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes
KOCABAŞ, SEFA; KOPAÇ, TÜRKAN; DOĞU, GÜLŞEN; Doğu, Timur (2008-03-01)
The effects of thermal treatments and palladium loading on sorption characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) samples were investigated. The thermal treatment experiments were carried out in a temperature range of 300-800 degrees C. The sorption characteristics of nitrogen and hydrogen on the original, heat treated and the palladium loaded samples were investigated. Analyzing the nitrogen adsorption isotherms on these samples at 77.4 K, the highest specific surface area of 2230 m(2)/g was obt...
