This paper provides a model of the crystallization kinetics polyamide 6 (PA6), including primary and secondary crystallization, lamellar thickness distribution, evolution mobile rigid fractions amorphous phase. The includes two-phase structure, monoclinic α-phase pseudo-hexagonal γ-meso phase, which depend on thermal history during solidification. is parameterized with experimental results from...

The use of non-metal clasp denture (NMCD) materials may seriously affect the remaining tissues because of the low rigidity of NMCD materials such as polyamides. The purpose of this study was to develop a high-rigidity glass fiber-reinforced thermoplastic (GFRTP) composed of E-glass fiber and polyamide-6 for NMCDs using an injection molding. The reinforcing effects of fiber on the flexural prope...

The antimicrobial effect of the polyamide 6/66-chitosan blend obtained by extrusion and chitosan-coated plastic films was compared with pure chitosan films and chitosan solution against Escherichia coli, Listeria monocytogenes and Bacillus cereus. The films from polyamide 6/66-chitosan blend had no antibacterial activity, and the chitosan plastic film coating (bilayer system) showed only contac...

We present telemetric sensing of surface strains on different industrial materials using split-ring-resonator based metamaterials. For wireless strain sensing, we utilize metamaterial array architectures for high sensitivity and low nonlinearity-errors in strain sensing. In this work, telemetric strain measurements in three test materials of cast polyamide, derlin and polyamide are performed by...

LiYF4:Eu nanophosphors with a single tetragonal phase are synthesized, and various strategies to enhance the Eu(3+) emission from the nanophosphors are investigated. The optimized Eu(3+) concentration is 35 mol%, and the red emission peaks due to the (5)D0 →(7)FJ (J = 1 and 2) transitions of Eu(3+) ions are further enhanced by energy transfer from a sensitizer pair of Ce(3+) and Tb(3+). The tri...

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the effects of different repair resins and surface treatments on the repair strength of a polyamide denture base material. Polyamide resin specimens were prepared and divided into nine groups according to the surface treatments and repair materials. The flexural strengths were measured with a 3-point bending test. Data were analyzed with a 2-way ...
