Chemistry of Silanes Interfaces in Dental Polymers and Composites

January 1, 2003
Author(s)
Joseph M. Antonucci, Sabine H. Dickens, Bruce O. Fowler, H H. Xu, Walter G. McDonough
The performance and service life of glass- or ceramic-filled polymeric composites depend on the nature of their resin, filler and interfacial phases as well as the efficacy of the polymerization process. The synergy that exists between the organic polymer

Glass-Fiber/Resin Interfacial Strength the Microbond Test and Chemical Evaluation

January 1, 2003
Author(s)
Walter G. McDonough, Joseph M. Antonucci, Joy Dunkers, Gary E. Schumacher
The quest for durable, aesthetic and bondable materials that can restore both the function and appearance of lost tooth structure has been a major concern for dental materials researchers. A significant advance, which ushered in the modern era of

Subsolidus Phase Equilibria and Crystal Chemistry in the System BaO-TiO 2 -Ta 2 O 5

January 1, 2003
Author(s)
Terrell A. Vanderah, Robert S. Roth, T Siegrist, W Febo, J. M. Loezos, Winnie K. Wong-Ng
Subsolidus phase relations have been determined for the BaO: TiO 2Ta 2O 5 system. Approximately 100 specimens were prepared in air at temperatures near but below the solidus (1275 C to 1500 C). For the binary BaO: Ta 2O 5 subsystem, the formation of all

Application of the V-Notch Shear Testing for Unidirectional Hybrid Composities

December 1, 2002
Author(s)
J He, Martin Y. Chiang, Donald L. Hunston, Charles C. Han
The v-notch (losipescu) shear test was investigated as a mean for determining the in-plane shear modulus and strength of unidirectional hybrid composites. Two types of hybrid systems having different fiber tow volume fractions composed of carbon and glass

Talking Ceramics

November 1, 2002
Author(s)
Terrell A. Vanderah
This is an invited Perspective article describing the technical needs and state-of-the-art research activities in the materials science of microwave ceramics, especially dielectric materials which serve as critical elements in resonators and filters

Application of Self-Assembled Technology to Probe Fiber Matrix-Adhesion

October 1, 2002
Author(s)
E Feresenbet, D T. Raghavan, Gale A. Holmes
Adhesion at the fiber-matrix interface of composite is often related to a combination of factors such as mechanical interlocking, physico-chemical interactions, and chemical bonding of the fiber-matrix interphase region. We demonstrate the use of (self

Application of an On-Line Weld Monitoring System

September 12, 2002
Author(s)
Thomas A. Siewert, Ivan Samardzic, Stefanija Klaric
quisition analysis and real-time manipulation of the welding parameters offer added controls over the weld quality. Thanks to the continual development of information technology and electronics, it is possible to improve the systems for monitoring of the

Acoustic Spectroscopy of Lithium Niobate: Elastic and Piezoelectric Coefficient

September 1, 2002
Author(s)
H Ogi, Y Kawashima, M Hirao, H M. Ledbetter
We report the first Simultaneous measurement of a crystal's complete elastic and piezoelectric coefficients: C if, e ijk. The studied crystal was lithium niobate (LiNbO 3) with trigonal crystal symmetry (3 m point group), thus six independent C ijk, four e

Rheology of Poly(ethylene oxide) Clay Solutions

August 1, 2002
Author(s)
Sheng Lin-Gibson, G Schmidt, Jai A. Pathak, Charles C. Han
Poly(ethylene oxide) and Laponite, a synthetic hectorite clay, form highly viscoelastic solutions in water. Above a certain clay concentration, these solutions can be described as physical crosslinked networks where clay platelets undergo equilibrium

Crystal Structure of Ba 27 Fe 16 Ti 33 O 117

July 1, 2002
Author(s)
T Siegrist, Terrell A. Vanderah, C Svensson, Robert S. Roth
Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies indicate that the compound Ba 27Fe 16Ti 33O 117- crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group R-3m, with a hexagonal unit cell a=5.7400(8) , c=127.11(3) ; Z=1.5. The arrangement may be described as a 54-layer (54L)

Investigation of Morphology and Interface in Polymer Composite Thin Films

July 1, 2002
Author(s)
C. K. Chiang, Li Piin Sung, R Popielarz
Laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) has been applied to examine the filler particles and their distribution in BaTiO3-polymer composite films. We have measured thin-slice images of the composite films at various depths from the film surface and

Reliability Improvements in Repair Welding of High Strength Steels

July 1, 2002
Author(s)
Ivan Samardzic, Thomas A. Siewert
Engineers often have to deal with repair of weldments after they have been put into service. Here, the concern is that the service environment may have changed the structure, indepent of whether the problems originated during the initial construction (cold

Polymer Composites with High Dielectric Constant

June 1, 2002
Author(s)
C. K. Chiang, R Popielarz
A very high dielectric constant polymer composite film system is presented. The new polymer composite film uses cyanoresin polymer filled with ferroelectric ceramics, such as BaTiO 3 powder. While the dielectric constant of the cyanoresin polymer at 1 kHz

May 3, 2002
Author(s)
Mahalingam Balasubramanian, James McBreen, Xiao-Qing Yang, H S. Lee, A R. Moodenbaugh, Daniel A. Fischer, Ziwen Fu, D Abraham
Lithium-ion batteries are promising candidates for hybrid electric vehicles (HEV). Batteries that exceed the requirements for HEV, as set by the Partnership for a New Generation of Vehicles (PNGV), have been designed and built. These batteries are based on

Influence of Processing Rate and Formulation on the Interface Strength of Vinyl Ester/E-Glass Composites

April 1, 2002
Author(s)
Walter G. McDonough, Joy Dunkers, Gale A. Holmes, E Feresenbet, Y H. Kim, Richard~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined~undefined Parnas
The single fiber fragmentation test was used to investigate the effect of gelation time on interfacial shear properties of fast reacting resin systems. We developed a processing system capable of producing single fiber fragmentation samples with gelation
