2009 - 2013 Bilfen High School, İstanbul/TURKEY
2009-2001 Ata Elementary School
Research Projects:
Low Density, High Modulus Polypropylene Wood Composites Prepared by using Thermo Kinetic Mixer
Intention of the project is obtaining low density and high modulus polymers without losing its tensile modulus or even increase in mechanical properties. In order to decrease the density the inorganic material named talc in polymer is replaced with the low density organic fillers by using ultrahigh speed thermo kineticmixing method.
