OBJECTIVES: The most common chemical substances used as mass control agents are chloroacetophenone, chlorobenzylidene malononitrile, and oleoresin capsicum. These agents not only have local and rapid effects but also have systemic and long-term effects. The aim of the present study was to discuss the patterns of tear gas exposure and to investigate its effects on respiratory functions.

Direct synthesis of hydrogen storage alloys from their oxides Tan, Serdar; Öztürk, Tayfur; Aydınol, Mehmet Kadri; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2011) The aim of this study is the synthesis of hydrogen storage compounds by electrodeoxidation technique which offers an inexpensive and rapid route to synthesize compounds from oxide mixtures. Within the scope of this study, two hydrogen storage compounds, FeTi and Mg2Ni, are aimed to be produced by this technique. In the first part, effect of sintering conditions on synthesis of FeTi was studied. For this purpose, oxide pellets made out of Fe2O3-TiO2 powders were sintered at temperatures between 900 °C – 1300...
Enantioselective michael addition of 1-nitropropane to nitroolefins with 2-aminodmap and quinine based bifunctional organocatalysts Kanberoğlu, Esra; Tanyeli, Cihangir; Department of Chemistry (2015) 1,3-dinitro compounds are key materials in the synthesis of a variety of important fine chemicals. Moreover, they are reduced to 1,3-diamines which are starting materials of biologically active compounds, agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. In this study, ((2S,3S)-1,3-dinitropentan-2-yl)benzene was synthesized via the Michael addition of 1-nitropropane to trans-β-nitrostyrene in the presence of chiral bifunctional 2-aminoDMAP and quinine based organocatalysts. In the first part of study, reaction conditions ...
Diffusion and reaction in catalyst pellets with bidisperse pore size distribution Doğu, Timur (1998-06-01) Catalysts with bidisperse pore structures are extensively used in chemical industries. In such catalysts, diffusion and reaction in the microporous particles are preceded by diffusion in the macropores. The relative significance of macro-and micropore diffusion resistances on the observed reaction rates with Linear and nonlinear rate forms, heat effects, catalyst deactivation and selectivity problems in bidisperse catalysts are investigated in number of published works. In this article, a review of the mode...
Sustainable remediation of aquatic sediments contaminated with polybrominated diphenyl ethers and hexabromocyclododecane Demirtepe, Hale; İmamoğlu, İpek; Department of Environmental Engineering (2017) The most widely used brominated flame retardants (BFRs), namely, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), and hexabromocyclododecane (HBCDD) are persistent organic pollutants that pose great risk to human health and the environment. This study aims to investigate degradation of PBDEs and HBCDD contaminated aquatic sediments via biotic and abiotic remediation strategies. In order to obtain an indication of use of these BFRs in Turkey, urban and industrial wastewater treatment plant sludges were sampled, yield...
Temporal variations of VOC concentrations in Bursa atmosphere YURDAKUL, Sema; Civan, Mihriban; Kuntasal, Oznur; Dogan, Guray; Pekey, Hakan; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal (2018-03-01) The levels and sources of VOCs in the atmosphere of Bursa have been investigated by measuring C-2 - C-12 VOCs which include alkanes, alkenes, alkines, aromatics and halogenated hydrocarbons in two different campaigns. The first campaign was carried out between September 14 and November 6, 2005, and the second one between March 17 and May 10, 2006. The concentrations of 112 VOCs were detected in the collected samples. The median total concentrations of VOCs were 115 and 86 mu g m(-3) for the first and second...
