Statistical design in isothermal aging of polyimide resins

Hygrothermal Aging of Polyimide Matrix Composite Laminates

Two polyimide-matrix systems were subjected to a series of hygrothermal aging experiments at various temperatures and relative humidities. For each aging condition, we measured the microcracking fracture toughness as a function of aging time. The toughness decreased with time. The rate of decrease increased with temperature and relative humidity. All experimental results could be fit to a simpl...

Simulating isothermal aging of snow

A Monte Carlo algorithm to simulate the isothermal recrystallization process of snow is presented. The snow metamorphism is approximated by two mass redistribution processes: surface diffusion and sublimation-deposition. The algorithm is justified and its parametrization is determined. The simulation results are compared to experimental data, in particular, the temporal evolution of the specifi...

Influence of Light-Curing Units on Color Stability of Composite Resins After Aging

Background and Aim: The use of composite restorations has increased in recent years. One of the most important problems with composite restorations is the loss of consistency between the composite and tooth color, which in most cases requires replacement. Materials and Methods: In this study, the color stability of 40 disc-shaped specimens (10 mm in diameter and 2 mm in height) from two types ...
