objectives: the aim of this study was to assess and compare the characteristics of commonly used initial archwires by their load deflection graphs. materials and methods : this study tested three wire designs namely copper nickel titanium (cnt), nickel titanium (niti), and multi-strand niti (msnt) archwires engaged in passive self-ligating (psl) brackets, active self-ligating (asl) brackets or ...

The purpose of the work was to study the features of reparative osteogenesis for filling the defect of tubular bone under implantation of mesh titanium nickelide constructs. Tibial fenestrated defect was modeled experimentally in 30 Wistar pubertal rats, followed by implant intramedullary insertion. The techniques of radiography, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray electron probe microanalys...

The microstructure and properties of a silicon coating on titanium nickelide substrate were studied to assess the possibility using such improve biocompatibility medical implants. with thickness 4.0±0.5 microns was applied TiNi molecular beam epitaxy unit. had submicrocrystalline structure crystallite size 0.1...0.2 microns, developed surface, high crack resistance.

Microporous titanosilicate Ti-MCM-68 (Ti-MSE) was successfully synthesized by post-synthetic isomorphous substitution of Ti for Al and proved to be a high-performance catalyst, in particular showing superior performance to TS-1, Ti-BEA, and Ti-MWW for phenol oxidation using H(2)O(2) as an oxidant.
