logical or synthetic materials provide the most effective biological compatibility. Such scaffolds can be filled with stem cells, growth factors, blood plasma proteins, and other active substances including drugs [1 5]. In spite of adequate biological compatibility, such implants cannot be used in organs and tissues subjected to serious stress during functioning (e.g. teeth and joints). This pr...

As an important quality index of high voltage electricity transmission tower, zinc coating thickness detection and quality control is more and more attention in recent years. The coating thickness and uniformity of tower materials provided by the suppliers are tested through the traditional method by the power department, the detection precision of this method is low efficiency and analysis res...

Implant materials need to be highly biocompatible to avoid inflammation in clinical practice. Although biodegradable polymeric implants can eliminate the need for a second surgical intervention to remove the implant materials, they may produce acidic degradation products in vivo and cause non-bacterial inflammation. Here we show the strategy of "substrate-anchored and degradation-sensitive coat...

The development of new cutting tool materials during the last few years is based mainly on submicron hardmetal substrates as well as on new PVD and CVD coatings. The development of submicron and nanopowders with higher strength and higher fracture toughness solves problems in machining high-temp alloys, hard materials, and in dry cutting. Based on physical models used to calculate stress in the...

The progressive replacement of organic solvent-based coatings by waterborne latex polymer coatings has substantially renovated the coating industry, and generated huge environmental and health benefits. Today, on top of the continuing demand for higher performance and lower costs, the coating industry faces tighter regulation and higher sustainability standards. In addition, the new waterborne ...

In this paper, polymethacrylate enteric coated materials based on the equal mass of methyl acrylic acid and ethyl acrylate as the main raw materials were synthesized through emulsion polymerization. Omeprazole Enteric-coated Capsules were prepared by the fluidized bed coating technology using above materials as enteric layer and in vitro enteric test was considered according to standard. The re...

Resin coating technique is a unique method that improves the dentin bond strength of resin cements in indirect restorations. However, the weak link of a specimen bonded using the resin coating technique was reported to be the bonded interface between the resin coating material and resin cement. The purpose of this study, therefore, was to enhance the bonding performance between a resin coating ...

The performance of many solid-state devices including emissive displays, optical sensors, integrated optical circuits, and light-emitting diodes can be improved by applying a transparent high refractive index coating (≥ 1.65) onto the light-emitting or light-sensing portion of the device. Ideally, the coating should combine the excellent durability and easy deposition of a spin-applied polymer ...
