ABSTRAKKabupaten Padang Pariaman memiliki sumber daya pozzolan yang belum termanfaatkan secara optimal. Pozzolan adalah bahan mengandung senyawa silika dan alumina. Untuk pemanfaatan optimal dilakukan analisis karakterisasi potensi sebagai silika. Silika bisa dimanfaatkan untuk baku utama diberbagai industri, seperti industri gelas, keramik, katalis, pertanian pengolahan limbah. mengetahui kual...

Artificial bone grafting is widely used in current orthopedic surgery for bone defect problems. Unfortunately, surgeons remain unsatisfied with the current commercially available products. One of the major complaints is that these products cannot provide sufficient mechanical strength to support the human skeletal structure. In this study, we aimed to develop a bone scaffold with better mechani...

Abstract To promote the actual investment of solid electric heat storage heating devices, three different and release materials are used to simulate analyze release. The results show that “magnesia brick has best capacity in 10 hours”. In terms average temperature performance, silica is best, standard deviation reaches maximum value at 8 h, which 75.13 k. It less than 99.70 k for magnesia 114.9...

The development of new active optical fibre devices requires materials with « augmented » intrinsic properties, though using luminescent ion (LI) –doped silica as host glass. Optical fibers containing Dielectric Nanoparticles (DNP) grown by phase separation are proposed. DNP would optimally fully encapsulate LI to produce « engineered » spectroscopic properties. To determine the composition of ...

Revision rates of total hip arthroplasty have decreased after introducing total hip arthroplasty (THA) using ceramic component, since ceramic components could reduce components wear and osteolysis. The fracture of a ceramic component is a rare but potentially serious event. Thus, ceramic on polyethylene articulation is gradually spotlighted to reduce ceramic component fracture. There are a few ...

OBJECTIVE This study investigated the durability of repaired all-ceramic crowns after cyclic loading. MATERIAL AND METHODS Eighty In-ceram zirconia crowns were fabricated to restore prepared maxillary premolars. Resin cement was used for cementation of crowns. Palatal cusps were removed to simulate fracture of veneering porcelain and divided into 4 groups (n = 20). Fracture site was treated b...

The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of silica and aluminosilicate nanocomposite coating of zirconia-based dental ceramic by a sol-gel dip-coating technique on the bond strength of veneering porcelain to the yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) in vitro. Thirty Y-TZP blocks (10 mm ×10 mm ×3 mm) were prepared and were assigned to four experimental groups...

Background: Metal ceramic restorations are highly popular and are used for most of the crown and bridge restorations made today. Aims: To evaluate the translucency and fracture strength of two all-ceramic and traditional metal ceramic crowns. Materials and Methods: Thirty crowns of similar size and shape were constructed to fit a standard brass die. Ten crowns were manufactured from each of the...

To systematically review the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and compare the survival rates and complications of all-ceramic fixed dental prostheses (FDPs) with those of metal-ceramic FDPs. Eligible studies were retrieved in relevant electronic databases from their inception to June 8th, 2016. Then, quality of the included studies was assessed using Cochrane Collaboration’s tool. Heterogene...
