Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 10Synthesis and Characterization of Novel High Temperature Structural Adhesives Based on Nadic End Capped Mda-Btda Copolyimide(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2018) Acar, Oktay; Varis, Serhat; Isik, Tugba; Tirkes, Seha; Demir, Mustafa M.A series of novel copolyimide structural adhesives were synthesized using 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl-methane (MDA), 3,4'-oxydianiline (ODA) and 3,3',4,4'-benzophenonetetracarboxylic acid dianhy-dride (BTDA) as co-monomers, and nadic anhydride as an end cap reagent. The adhesives with different MDA and ODA contents were examined in terms of their structure, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and adhesive performance. They have glass transition temperatures (T-g) about 400 degrees C, with thermal stability up to 500 degrees C. The effect of diamine monomer compositions on adhesion performance and processability of the copolyimides were studied. The copolyimides exhibited adhesion strength up to 16.3 MPa at room temperature. Nadic end capped MDA-BTDA-ODA copolyimide resins gained adjustable and controllable processability with the addition of ether bridged aromatic segments. The copolyimide adhesive with equimolar composition of MDA: ODA is distinguished form the both commercial PMR-15 and LARC RP-46 polyimides in terms of its better processability and mechanical performance.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 34Mechanical, Thermo-Mechanical and Morphological Characterization of Abs Based Composites Loaded With Perlite Mineral(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2020) Alghadi, Aiah Mohamed; Tirkes, Seha; Tayfun, UmitAcrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) copolymer was filled with perlite mineral (PER) at four different loading level of 2.5%, 5%, 10% and 15%. ABS/PER composites were produced using lab-scale micro-compounder followed by injection molding process. Mechanical, thermo-mechanical, melt-flow and morphological properties of composites were reported by tensile and impact tests, dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA), melt flow index (MFI) test and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. Mechanical characterizations revealed that tensile strength, elongation and Youngs? modulus of ABS were improved by PER inclusions. However, impact strength of ABS reduced with increase of PER concentration. Glass transition temperature of ABS displayed increasing trend for %5 concentration of PER. MFI test implied that PER addition caused slight decreasing for MFI value of unfilled ABS. Homogeneous dispersion of PER particles into ABS matrix for their lower loading level was obtained from SEM micrographs of composites. According to findings, 5% PER containing sample exhibited the best performance and it was remarked as the most suitable candidate among fabricated ABS based composites.
