Recently a new class of photocurable composites has been developed that utilize amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) as the filler phase with photoactivated dental monomer systems such as 2,2-bis[p-(2'-hydroxy-3'-methacryloxypropoxy)phenyl]propane (Bis-GMA)

In this work, binary images of the microstructure of a unidirectional E-glass/epoxy composite were generated from the low contrast OCT data through image de-noising, contrast enhancement and feature recognition. The resulting data were input to a lattice
Dielectric constant and morphology of BaTiO3-polymer composite films were studied as a function of the filler concentration. The morphology of the films was examined using laser scanning confocal microscopy, which is capable to measure small particle

The Polymer Composites group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology has efforts in both on-line flow and cure sensing for liquid composite molding. For our flow program, a novel fiber optic real time sensor system has been developed that can
The broadband dielectric relaxation of a BaTiO3-polymer composite film was studied. The complex dielectric constant data from 10 -4 Hz to 10 10 Hz reveals the existence of a relaxation process at a frequency of 10 MHz in the polymer composite. On the basis
The dielectric properties of acrylic resin composites filled with BaTiO 3 have been evaluated in the broad frequency range. These materials were used as models to study the dielectric response in polymer composite films for de-coupling capacitance

The Composites Group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology has found optical coherence tomography (OCT) to be a powerful tool for non-destructive characterization of polymer matrix composites. Composites often exhibit superior properties to
hesion at the fiber matrix interface of composite specimens is often ascribed to the following factors (Sharpe and Drzal): (1) mechanical interlocking, (2) physicochemical interactions, (3) chemical bonding, and (4) mechanical deformation of the fiber

Amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP), an important precursor in the biological formation of hydroxyapatite (HAP), has recently been utilized as a bioactive filler in resin-based dental materials. It was found that, if ACP was stabilized against premature
