Biomechanical behavior of cavity configuration on micropush-out test: A finite-element-study
2009
Objective: The objective of this study was to simulate the micropush-out bond strength test from a biomechanical point of view. For this purpose, stress analysis using finite element (FE) method was performed. Study design: Three different occlusal cavity shapes were simulated in disc specimens (model A: 1.5 mm cervical, 2 mm occlusal diameter; model B: 1.5 mm cervical, 1.75 mm occlusal diameter; model C: 1.5 mm cervical, 1.5 mm occlusal diameter). Quarter sizes of 3D FE specimen models of 4.0×4.0×1.25 mm3 were constructed. In order to avoid quantitative differences in the stress value in the models, models were derived from a single mapping mesh pattern that generated 47.182 elements and 6…
Disinclusion of unerupted teeth by mean of self-ligating brackets: Effect of blood contamination on shear bond strength
2012
Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess the effect of blood contamination on the shear bond strength and failure site of three different orthodontic self-ligating brackets. Study Design: 240 bovine permanent mandibular incisors were randomly divided into 12 groups of 20 specimens each. Orthodontic self-ligating brackets were tested under four different enamel surface conditions: a) dry, b) blood contamination before priming, c) blood contamination after priming, d) blood contamination before and after priming. Brackets were bonded to the teeth and subsequently tested using a Instron universal testing machine. Shear bond strength values and adhesive failure rate were recorded. Statis…
Retentive strengths of cast gold crowns using glass ionomer, compomer, or resin cement
1998
The retention forces of a newly developed compomer cement (Dyract Cem), a glass ionomer cement (Ketac Cem Aplicap), and a resin cement (F21) were examined.Cemented cast gold crowns were removed along the path of insertion with a Zwick universal testing device. The impact of both a cured and a noncured additional bonding layer that were applied to the inner surface of the crowns was examined across the Dyract Cem group.The mean adhesive strength was measured at 2.36 +/- 0.69 N/mm2 in the Ketac Cem group, at 0.60 +/- 0.28 N/mm2 in the F21 group, and at 1.85 +/- 0.94 N/mm2 in the Dyract Cem group, respectively. The application of an additional bonding layer to the inner surface of the crowns d…
Complexes of (CH3)2AuIII: synthesis, PMR and IR spectra
1975
Abstract The syntheses and reactivity of dimethylgold(III) complexes with multidentate ligands as TRIPHOS (i.e., 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane) and TREN (i.e. 2,2′,2″-triaminotriethylamine) have been examined. I.r. spectra for the compounds in the solid state, conductivity and PMR data for solutions, lead to the assignment of an ionic formula [CH 3 ) 2 Au TRIPHOS] + [(CH 3 ) 2 AuCl 2 ] − where the gold(III) atoms are presumably four-coordinate. The complex (CH 3 ) 2 AuCl TREN in DMSO solution undergoes a reductive elimination reaction, as found for analogous dimethylgold(III) derivatives.
Antibacterial Properties of Nanoparticles in Dental Restorative Materials. A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
2020
Background and Objectives: Nanotechnology has become a significant area of research focused mainly on increasing the antibacterial and mechanical properties of dental materials. The aim of the present systematic review and meta-analysis was to examine and quantitatively analyze the current evidence for the addition of different nanoparticles into dental restorative materials, to determine whether their incorporation increases the antibacterial/antimicrobial properties of the materials. Materials and Methods: A literature search was performed in the Pubmed, Scopus, and Embase databases, up to December 2018, following PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis) …
Intra- and intermolecular forces dependent main chain conformations of esters of α,β-dehydroamino acids
2013
Abstract Esters of dehydroamino acids occur in nature. To investigate their conformational properties, the low-temperature structures of Ac-ΔAla-OMe, Ac-ΔVal-OMe, Z-(Z)-ΔAbu-OMe, and Z-(Z)-ΔAbu-NHMe were studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The ΔAla ester prefers the fully extended conformation C5. Both the ΔVal and (Z)-ΔAbu esters assume the conformation β, whereas the amide analogue of the latter prefers the conformation α. For the conformations found, DFT calculations using B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) with the SCRF-PCM and M062X/6-311++G(d,p) with the SCRF-SMD method were applied to mimicking chloroform and water environment. The tendency of the ΔVal and (Z)-ΔAbu esters towards the confo…
On-line bidirectional electrostacking of chromium(III) and chromium(VI) for flame atomic absorption spectrometry determination
2000
Abstract An on-line bidirectional electrostacking-flow injection-flame atomic absorption spectrometry method has been developed for the simultaneous separation, pre-concentration and determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI). The electrostacking-flow injection unit was established, the pH and components of the support buffer and sample medium were investigated. Results indicated that the ionic mobility, electric field strength and sample area cross-section are the main influence factors on the electrostacking. The calibration range for both, Cr(III) and Cr(VI), was from 20 to 400 μg l −1 . The limit of detection was 7 μg l −1 for three-times the standard deviation of blank values using a electros…
Oleochemical carbonates: A comprehensive characterization of an emerging class of organic compounds
2022
Dialkyl carbonates (DAC) with short-medium alkyl length - oleochemical carbonates – are attracting attention because of their appealing properties, including low viscosity, flammability, toxicity, environ- mental impact and wide range of applications: lubricants, personal care, fuel additives etc. However, not much is known concerning their chemical physical properties and, more importantly, on the nature of microscopic correlations that eventually determine bulk performances. In view of this paucity, we pre- sent a large exploration of a series of chemical physical properties of a set of DACs ranging from dimethyl up to didodecyl carbonate. This study extends previously determined database…
Dissecting the packing forces in mixed perfluorocarbon/aromatic co-crystals
2021
We carried out a systematic evaluation of the packing forces in co-crystals featuring monoiodo- and diiodo-perfluoroalkanes and 1,2,4-oxadiazoles through single crystal X-ray diffraction and theoretical analysis. The molecules assemble via a combination of halogen bonding and specific dispersive interactions involving the perfluorinated units. We quantitatively elucidated the nature and strength of such interactions through solid-state calculations and Hirshfeld surface analysis. One of the co-crystals, formed by two monoiodoperfluorodecane molecules, the longest perfluorinated chain ever solved at the atomic level, allowed us to fully highlight the role of fluorous interactions.
Low-pressure ferroelastic phase transition in rutile-type AX2 minerals: cassiterite (SnO2), pyrolusite (MnO2) and sellaite (MgF2)
2019
The structural behaviour of cassiterite (SnO2), pyrolusite (MnO2) and sellaite (MgF2), i.e. AX2-minerals, has been investigated at room temperature by in situ high-pressure single-crystal diffraction, up to 14 GPa, using a diamond anvil cell. Such minerals undergo a ferroelastic phase transition, from rutile-like structure (SG: P42/mnm) to CaCl2-like structure (SG: Pnnm), at ≈ 10.25, 4.05 and 4.80 GPa, respectively. The structural evolution under pressure has been described by the trends of some structure parameters that are other than zero in the region of the low-symmetry phase’s stability. In particular, three tilting-angles (ω, ω′, ABS) and the metric distortion of the cation-centred oc…
