Yayın Small molecule sorption and desorption in and out of iota-carrageenan gels(Taylor & Francis Group, 2007-08) Ataman, Evren; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderSmall molecule sorption and desorption in and out of Iota-Carrageenan was studied by using steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique. Pyranine dissolved in water used as fluorescence probe. Fluorescence emission intensity, I-p from pyranine was monitored for studying sorption and desorption processes at various temperatures. The Fickian model was applied to produce sorption, D-s, early desorption, D-ed, and desorption, D-d, coefficients. Corresponding activation energies were obtained and found to be 20.5 kJ mol(-1), 7.0 kJ mol(-1) and 34.9 kJ mol(-1), respectively. The observed D-ed value is an order of magnitude smaller than the D-s and D-d coefficients. On the other hand, sorption processes were shown to be twice as fast as desorption processes.Yayın Temperature effect on drying and swelling of kappa carrageenan gels: A steady state fluorescence study(Wiley-V C H Verlag GMBH, 2008) Tarı İlgin, Özlem; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderA novel technique based on in situ steady state fluorescence (SSF) measurements is introduced for studying drying and swelling Of kappa(-) carrageenan (kappa carrageenan) gels at various temperatures. kappa(-) carrageenan gels were completely dried and then swelled in water vapor. Pyranine was embedded in kappa(-) carrageenan and used as a fluorescence probe. Scattered light intensities, I-SC and fluorescence intensities, I were monitored during the drying and swelling Of kappa(-) carrageenan gels. it was observed that the fluorescence intensity decreased linearly as drying time was increased. A simple model consisting of Case II diffusion was used to quantify the drying processes of the kappa(-) carrageenan gels. This moving boundary model provided packing constant, kappa(o). During swelling, fluorescence intensity increased exponentially as time is increased. The increase in I, was modeled using Li-Tanaka equation from which swelling time constants, tau(c) and cooperative diffusion coefficients, D-c were determined. It was observed that swelling time constants, tau(c) decreased and diffusion coefficients, D-c increased as the swelling temperature was increased. Activation energies for drying and swelling were also obtained and found to be 53.9 and 47.2 kJ mol(-1), respectively.Yayın Swelling of iota-carrageenan gels prepared with various CaCl2 content: A fluorescence study(European Polymer Federation, 2008-01-05) Tarı İlgin, Özlem; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderIota carrageenan gels prepared with various CaCl2 content were completely dried and then swelled in water vapor. Steady-state fluorescence ( SSF) technique was used to monitor the swelling process of each iota carrageenan gels at various temperatures. Pyranine was used as a fluorescence probe.

Li-Tanaka model was applied to produce the swelling time constants, tau(C) and sorption coefficients, D(C) for the swelling processes. on the other hand, sorption and desorption processes were studied and coefficients were produced by using Fickian model. Related activation energies were also calculated from the corresponding physical processes.Yayın Thermoluminescence as a probe in bioactivity studies; the case of 58S sol-gel bioactive glass(IOP Publishing Ltd, 2011-10-05) Polymeris, George S.; Goudouri, Ourania Menti; Kontonasaki, Eleana; Paraskevopoulos, Konstantinos M.; Tsirliganis, Nestor C.; Kitis, GeorgeThe formation of a carbonated hydroxyapatite (HCAp) layer on the surface of bioactive materials is the main reaction that takes place upon their immersion in physiological fluids. To date, all techniques used for the identification of this HCAp formation are rather time consuming and not well suited to detailed and rapid monitoring of changes in the bioactivity response of the material. The aim of this work is to explore the possibility of using thermoluminescence (TL) for the discrimination between different bioactive responses in the case of the 58S bioactive glass. Results provided strong indications that the 110 degrees C TL peak of quartz can be used effectively in the study of the bioactive behaviour of 58S bioactive glass, since it is unambiguously present in all samples and does not require deconvolution analysis. Furthermore, the intensity of the 110 degrees C TL peak is proven to be very sensitive to the different bioactive responses, identifying the loss of silica which takes place at the first stages of the sequence. The discontinuities of the 110 degrees C TL peak intensity plot versus immersion time at 8 and 1440 min provide experimental indications regarding the timescale for both the beginning of amorphous CaP formation as well as the end of crystalline hydroxyl-apatite formation respectively, while the spike in the sensitization of the 110 degrees C TL peak, which was observed for immersion times ranging between 20 and 40 min, could be an experimental feature indicating the beginning of the crystalline HCAp formation.Yayın Reordering of polystyrene gel due to multiple swelling in organic vapor fast transient fluorescence technique study(Elsevier Science SA, 2006-07-31) Erdoğan, Matem; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderReordering of disc-shaped polystyrene (PS) gels due to multiple swelling, under organic vapor was studied by using Fast Transient Fluorescence (FTRF) technique. Disc-sbaped polystyrene gels were prepared by free radical copolymerization (FRC) of styrene (S) with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDM) as a crosslinker. Pyrene (P) was introduced as a fluorescence probe during polymerization. Swelling experiments were performed by using P doped PS gels under chloroform vapor. After each swelling step, gels were left to dry in an oven at 30 degrees C for consecutive reswelling experiments. Decay curves of P were measured and pyrene lifetimes, tau, were determined. It was observed that tau values decreased as swelling recycles were repeated. It was observed that after the fifth swelling step, two different regimes appeared in the swelling processes in PS gels. Swelling time constant, tau(c), and cooperative diffusion coefficients, D-c were determined by using Li-Tanaka equation for each swelling step in both regimes. It was observed that D-c values decreased up to tenth swelling step and then remained unchanged in both regimes.Yayın Dissolution of Al2O3-polystyrene latex composites: A fluorescence study(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2005) Uǧur, Şaziye; Tepehan, Fatma Zehra; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderThis work reports the use of the steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique to study dissolution of a composite film formed from a mixture of Al 2O3 and polystyrene (PS) latex particles. The composite films were cast from dispersion of pyrene (P)-labeled PS particles in Al 2 O3 solution at room temperature and annealed at 280°C temperature for 10 min. Eight different composite films were studied in various latex contents. Toluene was used as dissolution agent. Fluorescence intensities Ip from P were monitored during dissolution. Fickian diffusion was employed to model the dissolution processes. Dissolution coefficients, D d, were measured and found to be increased at high PS content in the composite films.Yayın Study on swelling of hydrogels (PAAm) at various temperatures by using fluorescence technique(Springer US, 2007-10) Kaya Aktaş, Demet; Akın Evingür, Gülşen; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderSteady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed for studying swelling of polyacrylamide (PAAm) hydrogels. Disc-shaped gels were prepared by free-radical crosslinking copolymerization of acrylamide (AAm) with N, N'- methylenebis (acrylamide) (BIS) as crosslinker in the presence of ammonium persulfate (APS) as an initiator. Pyranine was introduced as a fluorescence probe. Fluorescence intensity of pyranine was measured during in situ swelling process at various temperatures and it was observed that fluorescence intensity values decreased as swelling is proceeded. Li-Tanaka equation was used to determine the swelling time constants, tau(c) and cooperative diffusion coefficients, D-c from intensity, weight and volume variations during the swelling processes. It is observed that swelling time constants, tau(c) decreased and diffusion coefficients, D-c increased as the swelling temperature is increased. The swelling activation energies, Delta E were measured from the intensity, weight and volume variations and found to be 10.7, 32.2 and 64.1 kJ mol(-1), respectively.
