Objectives: This study determined the validity and practicality of near infrared (NIR) spectroscopic techniques for measurement of conversion in dental resins
Objectives: A consolidated silver (CS) material, composed of acid activated silver particles has been developed for direct filling applications. The hypothesis
The 1 MHz dielectric properties of Ca 5Nb 2TiO 12 and Ca 5Ta 2TiO 12 compounds were reported recently. Both compounds have a common characteristic dependence of

This paper presents experimental results and theoretical calculations to evaluate the effects of Pb contamination on the solidification behavior of Sn-x mass Bi
Microcracking due to thermal expansion anisotropy is considered based on a finite element model. A polycrystalline microstructure is generated via Monte Carlo
A self-setting calcium phosphate cement (CPC) transforms into solid hydroxyapatite during setting at body temperature, and has been used in a number of medical
The strength and fracture resistance of dental resin composites need to be improved in order to extend their use to large stress-bearing crown and multiple-unit
The friction of three chemically distinct esters was measured in order to determine how molecular architecture influences friction. The friction coefficients of
The origins of two broad, unresolved features often observed in MALDI mass spectra of synthetic polymers are investigated. One occurs in the lower mass regions

The mean-square atomic displacement of thin (1015 to 75 ) polycarbonate films supported on Si wafers is measured using incoherent elastic neutron scattering
We have studied the modification of mica surfaces due to the impact of Xe44+ ions by imaging the ion-exposed surfaces with atomic force microscopy in vacuum. By

The last two decades have seen the development normal-incidence multiplayer mirrors and semiconductor photodiodes for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation
A vibration-isolated platform in a high-vacuum environment designed for prototyping optical interferometers is described. The system provides isolation from
This article reviews some of the fundamental properties of highly charged ions, the methods of producing them (with particular emphasis on table-top devices)
