This study aims to characterize the translucency of aligned, short-fiber composites by determining the effects of filler particle orientation on the Kubelka-Munk absorption and scattering coefficients. Rectangular composite specimens (n = 3) were filled with very short E-glass fibers. The

This study aims to determine if aligned, short-fiber composites are capable of producing Fraunhofer diffraction patterns similar to those of human enamel sections and to validate the mechanism of diffraction by comparing the experimental and theoretical fiber spacings. Rectangular composite

Denture soft lining materials are compliant cushions used at the oral tissue-denture interface. They are generally required to have sufficient compliance to redistribute mastication load, as well as an adequate modulus for long-term dimensional stability and control over the water

A great challenge regarding the ease-of-use of composites involves the development of 'self-adhesive' composites that no longer require a separate adhesive to bond to tooth enamel/dentin. To characterize the interfacial ultra-structure of an experimental self-adhesive filling material bonded to enamel
Two high-performance liquid chromatographic methods for determination of residual monomer in dental acrylic resins are described. Monomers were detected by their UV absorbance at 230 nm, on a Nucleosil C18 (5 microm particle size, 100 A pore size, 15 x
