Aim: To investigate the effect of different types nanoparticles on compressive strength (CS) and diametral tensile (DTS) type IV dental stones. Materials methods: A total 100 specimens were made from mould for all five groups. Four commercially available (aluminium oxide (Al2O3), silicon dioxide (SiO2), zinc (ZnO), zirconium (ZrO2)) used in this study a concentration 10%. CS DTS tests performed...

The reduction of the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of the gate oxide has emerged as one of the most difficult tasks addressing future CMOS technology. In order to overcome gate tunneling, the introduction of so-called high-κ materials will be necessary [1]. Hafnium dioxide, HfO2 [2], zirconium dioxide, ZrO2 [3], and their silicates are assumed to be the most promising candidates to fulfil th...

Objective: Today, special attention is paid to the use of zirconium dioxide nanoparticle (nano-ZrO2), a neutral bioceramic metal, particularly for drug and gene delivery in medicine. However, there are some reports implying that use of nano-ZrO2 is associated with cytotoxic effects like inhibiting the cell proliferation, DNA damage and apoptosis. In the present study, we examined whether nano-Z...

An overview on the developments of zirconium phosphate (ZrP) and its organic derivatives in heterogeneous catalysis in recent years is reported in the present review. Two basic aspects have been emphasized: first, the catalytic properties of zirconium phosphates were discussed, with particular attention to the effect of surface acidity and hydrophobic/hydrophilic character, textural properties,...

The piezoelectric phenomena uses in various helpful applications, such as printing of inkjet, the detection sound and production high voltage electricity different electronic devices. In present research, polyethylene oxide (PEO), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) were separately dissolved deionized water. These polymers mixed with ratio 0.6:0.2:0.2 wt%, respectiv...

Aqueous sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is well known for its reducing property and well-established for the development of metal nanoparticles through reduction method. In contrary, this research paper discloses the importance of aqueous NaBH4 as a precipitating agent towards development of porous zirconium oxide. The boron species present in aqueous NaBH4 play an active role during gelation as wel...

Dental ceramics represents a major structural material in fixed prosthodontics. Increasing demands for esthetics led to development of new ceramic materials in order to eliminate the use of metal framework and for all ceramic restorations with mechanical properties to withstand high occlusal forces. Out of all the present ceramic materials, zirconium-ceramic has the best mechanical properties, ...
