The aim of this study was to assess whether surface treatment improves zirconia-porcelain adhesion. The 3Y-TZP blocks were cut into squares, then polished and sintered. The zirconia surface treatments were performed as follows: no treatment (C); tribochemical silica coating (TBS); glaze application + hydrofluoric acid etching (GA); glaze application + hydrofluoric acid etching + silanization (G...

The effects of a typical glaze ice accretion shape on the performance of the M2129 S-duct inlet are computationally investigated for a range of flight Mach numbers. A Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) code with k-o> turbulence model is used to simulate the compressible viscous flow in the S-duct inlet. The glaze ice accretion on the cowl lip is modeled on a steady-state basis f rom N A S A...

lu3+/yb3+ and lu3+/er3+ co-doped sb2se3 nanomaterials were synthesized by a co-reduction method in hydrothermal condition. powder xrd patterns indicate that the lnxln′xsb2-2xse3 ln: lu3+/yb3+ and lu3+/er3+ crystals (x= 0.00-0.04) are isostructural with sb2se3. the cell parameters were increased for compounds upon increasing the dopant content (x). sem and tem images show that co-doping of lu3+/...

DESCRIPTION OF WELLCOME TILE* The tile is an elongated octagon in shape. It has a blue tinted glaze, and bright blue decoration with the motto in maroon. The sides of the tile are chamfered, and the glaze on the back is in irregular patches. The design of the Society of Apothecaries' Arms-with ribbon-like scrollwork to the sides of Apollo, who has an unusual 'Red Indian' headdress-is quite dist...

In this work was investigated the feasibility to use Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) glasses in construction sector as secondary raw material. WEEE glasses were used in different percentages as a function of the product obtained: 30-40wt% for glaze formulations, about 40wt% for glass-ceramics and 5wt% in brick bodies. The laboratory and industrial scale up results demonstrated ...

This study evaluated, in vivo, the efficacy of a denture glazing material (Palaseal) in modifying plaque colonization of dentures. Ten subjects were selected and received maxillary temporary partial removable dentures, with complete acrylic palatal coverage. The right half of the fitting surface of the denture bases were glazed with Palaseal, whereas the other half was not glazed. One month aft...

Ancient Jian wares are famous for their lustrous black glaze that exhibits unique colored patterns. Some striking examples include the brownish colored "Hare's Fur" (HF) strips and the silvery "Oil Spot" (OS) patterns. Herein, we investigated the glaze surface of HF and OS samples using a variety of characterization methods. Contrary to the commonly accepted theory, we identified the presence o...

In situ quantification of localizedweathering processes on basalt flows inNewMexico andHawaii demonstrates that small-area factors can be more important than other more readily observable factors. Further, it demonstrates that the factorial concept of the Pope Boundary-Layer weathering model is partially solvable, that organicweathering can accentuate glassweathering (with implications for clim...

background: 7-lif: mg,cu,p (gr-207a) is one kind of thermo-luminescent dosimeters (tld) which can be used in diagnostic radiology and radiotherapy applications. because of having suitable properties such as good sensitivity, small size and being tissue equivalent, thermo-luminescent dosimetry has been one of the most important techniques in medicine over many years. choosing a correct energy fo...
