The work presented in this dissertation is primarily aimed at improving the understanding of the electrical properties of the insulating polymer crosslinked polyethylene (XLPE) in order to support its use as power cable insulation. XLPE has been used for decades as the material …
Due to the miniaturization of electronic devices, seeking a high-k nanodielectric material becomes more urgent and important. High-k nanodielectrics have potential to improve the performance of traditional dielectrics in wide applications ranging from capacitors, dielectric reso…
Impedance spectroscopy measurements were performed on a series of silica (SiO2 ) and silica-titania (SiO2 -TiO2 ) glasses over the frequency range 40 Hz-10 MHz and the temperature range 25-700°C in order to elucidate the origin of the dielectric properties of SiO 2 -TiO2 glass-c…
In this study, nanocomposites consisting of the polymer matrix and nanometer sized ceramic supporting phase were produced for electrocaloric cooling applications, which show potential as alternative refrigerant system. The aim of this study was to be able to estimate adiabatic t…
Physical modification of rice flour plays a pivotal role in the adoption and utilization of non-waxy rice cultivars. Understanding and optimizing the impact of applying physical modification techniques holds the potential of enhancing food security in non-waxy rice producing com…
Son yıllarda, malzeme biliminde, polimerlerin ve nano boyutlu maddelerin bir araya getirilmesini amaçlayan organik-inorganik nanokompozitlerin geliştirilmesi konusunda çok sayıda çalışma yapılmaktadır. Nanokompozitlerde polihedral oligomerik silseskioksan (POSS) nanoparçacıkları…
