introduction: to evaluate the effects of using sodium hypochlorite irrigant on pull-out bond strength of self-etch and self-adhesive resin cements to dentin. methods: sixty intact premolars were decoronated and the root canals were prepared by step-back technique. the teeth were divided into two groups according to the irrigant used during root canal treatment: 5.25% sodium hypochlorite and nor...

In this study, we measured the interfacial shear strength between a thermoplastic resin and carbon fiber by novel pinhole-type pull-out method. method, specimen had pinhole formed on thin metal plate filled with resin. A was embedded into pulled out from pinhole. Seven types of polymers were used as resin, including PP, Modified PA6, PA12, PC, PMMA PEEK. shape is determined geometry always cyli...

Using electromechanical technique, various conductive carbon fibers and graphite and steel filaments/epoxy micro-composites were evaluated by measuring electrical resistivity to investigate the interfacial properties including the microfailure modes and interfiber distance effect with a aid of acoustic emission (AE). Micromechanical techniques, such as pull-out and fragmentation tests, and elec...

Fiber-matrix interface bonding is an important area of concern in fiber-reinforced composites because it directly related to the mechanical behavior composites. In this study, interfacial bond properties four types fiber at different curing ages were investigated by analyzing pull-out responses. Special attention was given fiber–matrix behavior, including tensile strength, average equivalent an...
