This work aims to address the heat accumulation issue in electronic components during high-frequency operation through preparation of novel thermally conductive composites. First, polydopamine (PDA) and in-situ growth silver (Ag) nanoparticles are applied for surface modification graphene oxide (GO) carbon nanotube (CNT) prepare [email protected] hybrid filler, respectively. Then, nitrile butad...

To investigate the relationship between T-DNA integration and double-stranded break (DSB) repair in Arabidopsis, we studied 67 T-DNA/plant DNA junctions and 13 T-DNA/T-DNA junctions derived from transgenic plants. Three different types of T-DNA-associated joining could be distinguished. A minority of T-DNA/plant DNA junctions were joined by a simple ligation-like mechanism, resulting in a junct...

objective: the purpose of the study was to evaluate the influence of adding nanofiller particles to a dentin bonding agent on resin-dentin bond strength. materials and methods: fifty-four human intact premolar teeth were divided in to 6 groups of nine. the teeth were ground on occlusal surfaces and polished with 320 and then 600 grit silicon carbide papers. an experimental bonding system based ...

Soft tissue filler injection has been a very common procedure worldwide since filler injection was first introduced for soft tissue augmentation. Currently, filler is used in various medical fields with satisfactory results, but the number of complications is increasing due to the increased use of filler. The complications after filler injection can occur at any time after the procedure, early ...

This study examined the effects of monomer composition, original filler content, and application of centrifugal force on the resulting filler loading of composites. Either Bis-MPEPP or UDMA was mixed with TEGDMA at a molar ratio of 1 : 1. Silane-treated silica (14-20 wt%) was added to each mixture. After the mixtures were centrifuged and light-polymerized, rate of increase was determined as the...

We investigated single application of pastes containing a surface reaction-type pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler on enamel demineralization. Human enamel blocks were polished using pastes containing S-PRG filler (0, 5, and 30%) and immersed in demineralizing solution for 5 days with daily change of solutions. The pH measurement and nanoindentation testing was carried out during the imme...

The relationship between wear resistance and filler size or filler loading was clarified for the universal resin composite; however, their relationship in flowable resin composites has not been clarified. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of filler size and filler loading on wear of experimental flowable resin composites by using a cyclic loading device. Nine experimental ...

The isothermal enthalpy changes with time of a dental composite were examined by microcalorimetry to isolate the effects of different filler concentrations and curing times on chemical aging of these composites. Urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA) monomer, zirconia-silica (ZS) powder, and 3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (MAPM) were used as organic and inorganic matrices, and a coupling agent, r...

The objective of this study was to investigate the potential use of sand washing waste as filler for epoxy resin mortar. The mechanical properties of four series of mortars containing epoxy binder at 10, 15, 20, and 25 wt. % mixed with sand blended with sand washing waste filler in the range of 0-20 wt. % were examined. The compressive and flexural strength increased with the increase in epoxy ...
