Electro-conductive resins filled with graphite for casting applications

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrical conductivity of epoxy and polyurethane resins, filled with two different grades of synthetic graphite (different average size) was studied.

Effect of composing particles of two sizes on mechanical properties of spherical silica-particulate-reinforced epoxy composites

TL;DR: In this article, the correlation between compositions using particles of different two sizes and mechanical properties was studied experimentally, and the composition effect of different particle sizes on fracture toughness was clarified to have a difference from the one on bending strength, although elastic modulus varied according to volume fraction of particles.

Films of poly (L - lactic acid) / poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) blends: in vitro degradation

TL;DR: In this paper, the PLLA/PHBV blends were analyzed by microscopy and the results showed that they are immiscible, and showed porous fracture surfaces. But they also observed that the blend increased its crystallinity with degradation.

Room temperature phosphorescene of nitrogen heterocycles adsorbed on silica gel

TL;DR: In this paper, the room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) of benzo(f)-quinoline adsorbed on several silica gel samples was investigated by luminescence, reflectance, and infrared spectroscopy to obtain a better understanding of the analytical conditions needed for strong RTP.

Thermal and mechanical characteristics of stainless steel, titanium-molybdenum, and nickel-titanium archwires.

TL;DR: From the clinical viewpoint, the Orthonol (Rocky Mountain Orthodontics, Denver, Colo), Cu-Ni-Ti 27, Cu- Ni-Ti 35, and Cu-NI-Ti 40 (SDS/Ormco, Glendora, Calif) products increased at least twofold in stiffness as temperature increased, best emulating the stiffness of Nitinol Classic below the transformational temperature and the stiffness
