Yayın Swelling activation energy of kappa-carrageenan in its gel state: A fluorescence study(John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2007-12-15) Tarı İlgin, Özlem; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderA steady-state fluorescence technique was employed to study the swelling Of K-carrageenan gels at various temperatures. Pyranine was used as a fluorescence probe. The fluorescence intensity of pyranine was measured during the in situ swelling process of K-carrageenan gels. The fluorescence intensity increased exponentially as the swelling time increased. The increase in the fluorescence intensity was modeled with the Li-Tanaka equation, from which the swelling time constants and cooperative diffusion coefficients were determined. The swelling time constants decreased and the cooperative diffusion coefficients increased as the swelling temperature was increased. The swelling activation energies were measured to be 47.05 kJ/mol.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 Study of drying of kappa-carrageenan gel at various temperatures using a fluorescence technique(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2008-01) Tarı İlgin, Özlem; Pekcan, Mehmet ÖnderThe steady-state fluorescence technique was used to study drying of kappa-carrageenan gel at various temperatures. Pyranine was doped as a fluorescence probe, and scattered light, I-sc, and fluorescence intensities, I, were monitored during drying of these gels. It was observed that I decreased linearly as drying time is increased. The moving boundary model based on Case II diffusion was applied to produce the packing constants, k(0), at higher temperatures. Activation energy for drying was found to be 53.9 kJ mol(-1). Supporting gravimetric and volumetric measurements were also carried out during drying of gels and the corresponding activation energies were determined to be 46.4 and 58.9 kJ mol(-1), respectively.
