FeSiCr soft magnetic composites (SMCs) were fabricated by the sol-gel method, and an Al2O3/resin composite layer was employed as insulation coating. By decomposition of boehmite (AlOOH) gel into Al2O3 in temperature range 606–707 °C, a uniform could be formed on powder surface. The coating not only effectively reduced core loss, increased resistivity, improved quality factor, but it also therma...

In this work, separation performance of supported carbon membranes produced from Novolac Phenolic resin as the main precursor and carbon nanotubes as nanofiller were investigated for separation of CO2 from N2 and CH4. Supports were produced by carbonization of Novolac Phenolic resin-activated carbon mixture, and selective layer was coated by dip coating of prepa...

Cubic boron nitride (cBN) is widely applied in cutting and grinding tools. cBN grains plated by pure Ni and Ni/SiC composite were produced under the same conditions from an additive-free nickel Watts type bath. The processed electroplating products were characterized by the techniques of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermoanalysis (TG-DTA). Due to the presence...

Resin materials are widely used in industrial applications due to their light weight and other desirable characteristics. However, although there resin with self-lubricating functions, problems abrasion chemical resistance. This study focused on urushi, which has long been as a coating for armor protective layers. Since previous studies have shown that urushi exhibits high wear resistance, this...

OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the immediate and 6-month resin-dentin micro-bond strength (microTBS) of one-step self-etch systems (Adper Prompt L-Pop [AD] 3M ESPE; Xeno III [XE] Dentsply De Trey; iBond [iB] Heraeus Kulzer) under different application modes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Dentin oclusal surfaces were exposed by grinding with 600-grit SiC paper. The adhesives were applied according to...

Optical fibers are drawn with resin coatings that protect the glass. In general UV-curable resins are used for the coatings, and in most single-mode (SM) fibers a dualcoating structure is adopted. Each coating layer has an independent function in the protection of the glass. The coating in direct contact with the glass is known as the primary (P) coating, with the role of acting as a buffer aga...

In this study, Damar Batu (DB) − a novel biomaterial− is evaluated for its potential application in pharmaceutical coating. DB is a whitish to yellowish resin, characterized initially in terms of solubility, acid value, molecular weight (Mw), polydispersity index (Mw/Mn) and glass transition temperature (Tg). Neat plasticized films of DB are investigated for mechanical, water vapor transmission...

Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the bond strength of an indirect composite material to a magnetic stainless steel alloy. Materials and Methods: The surfaces of machined magnetic stainless steel alloy specimens were abraded with 600-grit silicon carbide paper and then grouped according to the type of surface treatment given: 1) without preparation, 2) tribochemical s...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the bonding of resin-cement to yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) via silica coating followed by silanization, and three one-bottle universal adhesives, with or without prior conditioning using a zirconia primer. METHODS Y-TZP specimens (n=160) were conditioned by tribochemical silica coating and silanization (CS), or alumina sandblasting with one...
