Micro-powder injection molding (μPIM) is a modification of powder (PIM) process and globally recognized manufacturing route that can be used largely to produce sophisticated micro-sized components using wide range metals ceramics. The demand μPIM currently increasing in various applications telecommunication, electronics, aerospace, biomedical, automotive industries. In this research work, sint...

The requirements for dental material include not toxic, not irritant, no carcinogenic potential, nor cause an allergic response with the use in oral cavity. The cyanoacrylate restoration material has certain substance that can be toxic. Because of the ratio amount of powder and liquid is not known, it can lead the restoration more toxic. The purpose of this study was to know the cytotoxicity of...

Most of the pharmaceutical processes involved in the manufacturing of so lid dosage forms are connected with powder flow properties, at least for some of the intermediate steps. Powder flow characteristics are commonl y investigated by various measurements, such as handling angles, tap tes ting, shear cell measurements, etc. All these approaches allow the calc ulation of indices characterising ...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the initial stability as insertion and removal torque and the clinical applicability of novel orthodontic zirconia micro-implants made using a powder injection molding (PIM) technique with those parameters in conventional titanium micro-implants. METHODS Sixty zirconia and 60 titanium micro-implants of similar design (diameter, 1.6 mm; length, 8....

Shock consolidation experiments were conducted via flyer impact on synthetic diamond (6-12 ^m) and cubic boron nitride (c-BN) (4-8 /im) admixed with SiC whisker (SCW), Si3N4 whisker (SNW), SiC powder, and Si powder contained in stainless steel capsules under the shock pressure range of 10-30 GPa. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy imaging of the samples revealed n...
