Project for Obtaining New, Biodegradable, Environmentally Friendly Block/Graft Copolymers from Natural Products

Project No	KÜN.2018-BAGP-001
Project Name	Doğal Ürünlerden Biyobozunur, Yeni Çevre Dostu Blok/Graft Kopolimerlerin Elde Edilmesi
Project Manager	Prof. Baki Hazer
Researchers	Melike Eren
Project Type	Scientific Research and Development Project
Department	School of Applied Sciences
Duration (Month)	18
Project Summary	Within the scope of the “Synthesis of Some New Environmentally Friendly Block/Graft Copolymers” BAP project, studies are being carried out to produce environmentally friendly new polymer materials. In particular, the synthesis of new polymer materials using products produced by nature constitutes the weight of these studies. Soybean oil, a vegetable oil, is widely used in the production of new chemical substances in the industry. Since it has double bonds, it polymerizes with the formation of peroxides with air oxygen. Within the scope of this study, soybean macroperoxides are used in the polymerization of vinyl monomers to produce new copolymers and composite materials containing metal nanoparticles.
