t Muchh attention has been directed toward developing dental restorative compositess that generate less shrinkage stress during setting. The aim of this studyy was to explore the viscoelastic behavior of a new class of low-shrinkage dentall restorative composites during sett ing. The setting behavior of an experimentall oxirane composite was investigated by analyzing stress-strain data byy mean...

An activated carbon aerogel (ACA-500) with high surface area (1765 m2 g-1), pore volume (2.04 cm3 g-1), and hierarchical porous nanonetwork structure is prepared through direct activation of organic aerogel (RC-500) with a low potassium hydroxide ratio (1:1). Based on this substrate, a polyaniline (PANi)-coated activated carbon aerogel/sulfur (ACA-500-S@PANi) composite is prepared via a simple ...

objective: adverse surface interactions between one-bottle adhesives and chemical-cured composites may occur with delayed light activation of light-cured composites. the purpose of this study was to assess the effects of delayed activation of light-cured composites on shear bond strength of two one-bottle adhesives with different acidity to bovine dentin. materials and methods: flat dentin surf...

The Si-coated SiC (Si-SiC) composite nanoparticle was prepared by non-transferred arc thermal plasma processing of solid-state synthesized SiC powder and was used as a sintering additive for SiC ceramic formation. Sintered SiC pellet was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS) process, and the effect of nano-sized Si-SiC composite particles on the sintering behavior of micron-sized SiC powder ...

In this work we present the development and optimization of a graphene-embedded Sn-based material an activated carbon/lithium iron phosphate composite for high-performing hybrid lithium-ion capacitor (LIC).

t Thee aim of this study is to investigate three mechanical models to describe thee viscoelastic behavior of a commercially available light-activated restorative compositee during setting. Stress-strain data on Z100 were recorded by a dynamicc test method performed on a universal testing machine. The models weree tested by matching the model response to experimental data and the materiall param...

a novel composite adsorbent, silica aerogel activated carbon was synthesized by sol-gel process atambient pressure drying method. the composite was characterized by fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (ft-ir), scanning electron microscopy (sem), differential scanning calorimetry(dsc) and nitrogen adsorption / desorption isotherms (bet).in the present study, the mentioned adsorbent was used m...

A comparison of adsorption efficiency of the three Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) produced from waste Nigerian Bamboo at different level of activation in a fixed adsorption bed is reported. Bamboo carbonization was done at temperature range of 200-400c and chemically activated at 400c with chloride salt at percentage range of 0-20%. The 0, 10 and 20% level activation were selected for water tr...
