The purpose of this investigation was to examine the effect of filler particle size and shape as well as filler content on light transmittance characteristics and color of experimental composite resins. A mixture of 30 mol% Bis-GMA and 70 mol% TEGDMA was prepared as a base monomer and to which a photoinitiator (camphorquinone) and a co-initiator (N,N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate) were added....

Filler siphoning theory posits that the presence of fillers (known innocents) in a lineup protects an innocent suspect from being chosen by siphoning choices away from that innocent suspect. This mechanism has been proposed as an explanation for why simultaneous lineups (viewing all lineup members at once) induces better performance than showups (one-person identification procedures). We implem...

Background: Hyaluronidase can be employed to manage a variety of complications associated with cosmetic hyaluronic acid (HA) filler injection. However, the indications and treatment protocol for hyaluronidase use have not been well established. Objective: Review of the available literature to describe the use of hyaluronidase in the reversal of HA filler injection. Methods: PubMed/MEDLINE datab...

This study investigates how filler-gap relations are processed on-line in Chinese, in constructions where the relation is driven by the gap rather than by the filler. The specific issue is whether there is an Active Gap Strategy analogous to the Active Filler Strategy that has been well-documented by data from English, Italian and other languages. Results of a self-paced word-by-word reading ex...

The use of filler materials during fusion-based welding processes is widely used to regulate and modify the composition welded joints aiming at producing a desired microstructure and/or achieving an improvement in its mechanical performance. Welding high entropy alloys still new topic impact different on properties yet unknown. In this work, gas metal arc CoCrFeMnNi alloy using 410 stainless st...

This paper presents the study of tensile, flexural & moisture absorption properties of composites made from areca fibers, maize powder filler particles & epoxy resin. The specimens are prepared using hand lay-up techniques as per ASTM standard for different weight fractions of fiber, filler & matrix material. The specimens were tested as per ASTM standards. Experimental results showed that tens...

Standard handsheets of bleached bagasse and hardwood pulps were prepared with calcium carbonate filler loading by conventional method and by in-situ precipitation. The handsheets were printed with an IGT printability tester. The effect of filler loading by in-situ precipitation on ink transfer, print density, and print-through was studied. For a given amount of ink on the printing disk or on th...

Fillers are used for facial sculpturing and anti-ageing treatments with increasing popularity. The optimal outcome of any filler treatment depends upon different factors: exact indication, known limitations, filler product, and filler placement. For volumizing effect and longevity of procedures, however, the interaction of fillers and facial fat pads seems to be crucial. Here, we will review th...
