A simple, effective and highly selective cloud point extraction procedure was performed for enrichment of Pb (II) from aqueous matrix. The process depends on the formation of a stable complex between Pb (II) ions and Azure A compound at pH 6.0. The formed complex was extracted into micelle phase “Tergitol-NP7” at 25°C. This method was used for preconcentration of Pb (II) before its determination by FAAS. The values of limit of detection and limit of quantification were determined as 2.5 and 4.7 μg l -1 , respectively. The enrichment factor of the method was determined as 10 for 50 ml sample volume. Pb 2+ analyte was quantitatively extracted and successfully determined in the presence of the most common foreign ions. The proposed method was then employed for the analysis of Pb (II) in natural and wastewater samples.

The phase transition of GeO 2 structure was studied under constant pressure by using ab initio calculation and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA). A structural phase transition was observed at 30 GPa for the first time under the constant hydrostatic pressure, and P4 2 /mnm structure was transformated into a CaCl 2 (Pnnm) structure. This phase transition was also investigated using total energy, enthalpy, and the phase shift calculations. It was determined that the obtained transformation parameters and bulk modulus properties were compatible with the previous experimental and theoretical first principle calculations.

This study aims a numerical investigation of steady, laminar mixed convection heat transfer in a two-dimensional cavity by employing a finite volume method with a fourth-order approximation of convective terms, when nanoparticles are present. With the aim of solving two-dimensional momentum and energy conservation equations, a finite volume method on a non-uniform staggered grid is utilized. Second-order central differences are utilized to approximate diffusion terms in momentum and energy equations, while the development of a non-uniform four-point fourth-order interpolation (FPFOI) scheme is performed for the convective terms. Continuity and momentum equations are solved using the SIMPLE (Semi-Implicit Method for Pressure-Linked Equation) algorithm. In order to evaluate heat transfer enhancement, various viscosity and thermal conductivity models were employed. Numerical solution results were obtained in different models in cases where Gr number is between 103 and 105, Re number is 10-100-1000 and nanoparticle volumetric fraction is 0-5%.

The dynamic mechanical analysis was performed on five different formulations of a reinforced epoxy resin matrix with sugarcane bagasse (SCB) using hand lay-up technique. The viscoelastic behaviours of the composites were studied by analyzing the thermal parameters such as storage modulus E'(MPa), loss modulus E''(MPa), and tanδ as the temperature increases at periodic stress frequencies of 2.5, 5, and 10 Hz using Dynamic Mechanical Analyzer (DMA). The results revealed that E'(MPa) and E''(MPa) decreased with increasing temperature for all composites, while the tanδ increased with increasing temperatures. As the frequency of oscillation is increased, the viscoelastic parameters was seen to increase as well. However, the tanδ (damping coefficient) was found to decrease with increase in SCB fibre loading due to the good load-bearing capacity of the composites. The tanδ peak temperature of the composites was found to be higher than the onset temperature of E'(MPa) and peak temperature of E"(MPa) which depict higher accuracy. Futhermore, it was seen that the increase in SCB fibre content in the epoxy resin increased the glass transition temperature (Tg).

The aim of study was to evaluate the mineral changes caused by enamel bleaching treatments at different application times by scanning electron microscope- energy dispersive X-Ray (SEM-EDX). In this study, 36 teeth were divided into 3 groups after mineral measurements (Flour, Silicon, Aluminum, Strontium) with SEM-EDX (n ₌ 12). 40% hydrogen peroxide gel was used for bleaching in all groups. Bleaching was performed 20 min for Group 1, 40 min for Group 2, 60 min for Group 3. Mineral measurements were performed with SEM-EDX after treatment. In the intra-group comparison, although there was no significant difference between Flour (F) and Silicon (Si) values (p ˃ 0.05), there was statistically significant difference in Aluminum (Al) and Strontium (Sr) values (p < 0.05). After the bleaching process for different application times, mineral change was observed in time-depending comparison. The best results were obtained for Group 2, appling according to manufacturer's instructions.

In this study, a non-peripheral phthalonitrile compound was prepared as a starting material. Then this 3,4-dimethoxymethoxy substituted non-peripheral phthalonitrile compound was reacted with Co, Zn and Cu salts. Non-peripheral phthalocyanine compounds were prepared using an easy and practical method. The fluorescence spectra of the zinc phthalocyanine compound were measured in tetrahydrofuran. Aggregation studies showed the compliance with the lambert-beer law in the concentration range studied for non-peripheral phthalocyanine compounds. Thermogravimetric (TG) analyses showed that the compounds were stable. The photovoltaic performance of these phthalocyanine compounds was measured as current density-voltage (J-V). The calculated power conversion effects showed that these compounds had the potential to be used for dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) structures.

Metrizoic acid is a molecule used as meglumine metrizoate, sodium metrizoate contrast agent. 6 Isopak 44o* is a contrast medium containing a mixture of sodium, calcium, magnesium and N-methylglucamine salts of metrizoic acid. In order to determine the reactivity properties of metrizoic acid, melagnomie, anionic form of metrizoate, Metrisoate K, metrizoate-melagnomie salt, and Na-metrizoate, DFT calculations were made in gas and water phses at the level of B3LYP/LANL2DZ with the help of Gaussian 09 software. Some global chemical reactivity descriptors such as highest occupied molecular orbital energy, lowest empty molecular orbital energy, absolute hardness, chemical potential, softness, electronegativity, chemical potential, global electrophilicity and electrofugality were calculated. Moreover, nonlinear optical properties of the title compound were calculated too. In addition, thermodynamic properties of the molecules examined at different temperatures were calculated in gas and water phases. The findings of this study, obtained from extensive and time-consuming calculations and analyses, will be an important source of information for the preparation of the drug combination in the future.

Diabetes is seen as the global health problem of the world due to the high risk of complications and the increasing prevalence of death. The routine diagnosis of diabetes is the injection of insulin. This treatment has a lot of side effects known to the patient (infection at injection sites, irritation, etc.). In order to overcome such conditions in the treatment of diabetes and provide faster recovery, many different delivery systems for insulin are being studied. Hydrogels are interesting polymers with hydrophobic structure that can be designed in 3D networks for oral insulin delivery. In this study, we studied the synthesis of biodegradable, biocompatible, low-toxicity therapeutic hydrogels. Acrylamide (ACR):carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) (ACR/CMC), Acrylamide (ACR): Chitosan (Chi) and Chitosan:glutaraldehyde hydrogels were prepared. The CMC was used in acrylamide-based hydrogels for both comonomer and biocompatibility. The swelling capacity of hydrogels and the in vitro release of insulin from hydrogels were studied at different pH. Insulin release studies have shown that ACR/CMC hydrogels are a good and new alternative as an oral insulin carrier.

This study reflects the adsorption ability and usable of peanut shell-polyurethane type rigid foam for the removal of remazol orange RGB (RO-RGB) dye, a reactive dye, from aqueous solution. RO-RGB removal was studied for initial dye concentrations (10-150 mg l-1), pH values (3-9), and temperatures (20-60C) at various contact times. Dye removal increased with the increases in initial dye concentration and temperature while it was decreasing with an increase in pH. Maximum dye removal was determined to be about 98% under all the experimental conditions. Equilibrium data obtained were adapted to the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin isotherm models, and it was seen that the adsorption obeyed the Freundlich isotherm model with determination of coefficient of r2 = 0.966. Kinetics data was found to be harmony with the pseudo-second kinetic order model (higher than r2 = 0.9908). As a result, it was determined that the polyurethane-type rigid foam produced from peanut shell could be used as an alternative to activated carbon and could easily be used as an adsorptive material to remove RO-RGB dye.
