    Color change technology offers unique and challenging opportunities. Thermo-responsive color-changing nanofibers with reversibility have great potential as thermal sensors due to their increased sensitivity and fast response. Herein, polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers were produced by adding a leuco-based thermochromic dye with various concentrations (1%, 3%, and 5% wt corresponding to PCL1, PCL3, and PCL5, respectively). The color-changing properties with repetitive heating and cooling were studied, and the effect of dye concentration on the nanofiber properties was determined. The surface properties, dye presence, thermal and mechanical properties were analyzed by SEM-EDS, FTIR, DSC, and tensile tests. Finally, the color change properties were monitored by 1000 heating and cooling cycles between 20 and 40 & DEG;C. Thermochromic PCL nanofibers were successfully produced by electrospinning. However, some agglomerates were observed on the nanofibers with increasing dye concentration in SEM images. It was seen that the optimum dye concentration was 3% in terms of the electrospinnability. For PCL5, both presence of carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and fluorine in EDS spectra, the shifted peaks at 2917 and 2849 cm-1, and the new peaks at 1558, 1517, 1330, 1274, 1213 and 883 cm-1 in FTIR spectra confirmed that dye had been successfully incorporated into the PCL structure. The dye addition caused a decrease in the crystallization degrees, which resulted in lower mechanical properties. PCL5 had the lowest modulus. Color measurements showed that 1% of dyes concentration was not sufficient for the thermochromic property, and the color change was still visually detectable for PCL3 and PCL5 even after 1000 heating and cooling cycles. Color change activation temperature (TA) was confirmed between 30 and 32 & DEG;C, and the stability of color change was confirmed for 1000 heating and cooling cycles. After 1000 heating and cooling cycles, the color change was still detectable for PCL3 and PCL5. Consequently, this study showed that reversible thermochromic PCL nanofibers could be promising materials for future sensor applications.

    Comparison of poisson's ratio measurement methods: The extensometer and the universal tensile testing devices
    (Ege Universitesi, 2021-01-01) Tiritoğlu, Mehmet; Tezel, Serkan; Kavuşturan, Yasemin; TİRİTOĞLU, MEHMET; TEZEL, SERKAN; KAVUŞTURAN, YASEMİN; Mühendislik Fakültesi; Tekstil Mühendisliği Bölümü; 0000-0002-9919-564X; 0000-0002-2316-0782; 0000-0003-4078-8210; C-5123-2013; ABI-8400-2020; A-7462-2018
    Auxetic materials with a negative Poison's ratio (PR) have the potential to meet the demand for different materials, especially technical textiles. Universal Tensile Test (UTT) devices and various experimental setups developed by researchers have been used in PR measurements. This study aims to investigate the PR of knitted fabrics with UTT and extensometer devices comparatively by using the same measurement parameters according to ASTM E132. Knitted fabrics with zigzag and foldable patterns were produced in the study because of their auxetic behaviour. It has been determined that the extensometer device can be used as an alternative to the UTT device for PR measurements. While the PR of foldable fabrics cannot be measured with the UTT device because of the fabrics' folding on themselves, it has been observed that it can be easily measured with the extensometer device thanks to the horizontal axis principle.
