متن کاملAddition of platinum and silver nanoparticles to toughen dental porcelain.
Several studies have investigated toughening porcelain that is layered over a frame or a core. The introduction of residual compressive stress to the surface of porcelain has been shown to be effective to strengthen it. In the present study, nanoparticles of precious metals of silver and platinum (rather than non-precious metals) were used to evaluate if they could increase the fracture resista...
متن کاملNovel blends of polylactide with ethylene glycol derivatives of POSS
Polylactide (PLA), a main biodegradable and biobased candidate for the replacement of petrochemical polymers, is stiff and brittle at room conditions. It is therefore of high interest to formulate new PLA-based materials suitable for applications demanding flexibility and toughness. In this work, novel blends of PLA with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) grafted with longer (P1) and ...
متن کاملLong-term assessment of a novel biodegradable paclitaxel-eluting coronary polylactide stent.
AIM The aim of this study was to assess technical feasibility, biocompatibility, and impact on coronary stenosis of a new biodegradable paclitaxel-loaded polylactide stent. Due to high rates of in-stent restenosis and permanent nature of metal stent implants, synthetic polymers have been proposed as surrogate materials for stents and local delivery systems for drugs. Paclitaxel was shown to inh...
متن کاملBiodegradable polylactide/montmorillonite nanocomposites.
Our continuing research on the preparation, characterization, materials properties, and biodegradability of polylactide (PLA)/organically modified layered silicate (OMLS) nanocomposites has yielded results on PLA/montmorillonite nanocomposites. Montmorillonite (mmt) modified with dimethyldioctadecylammonium cation was used as an OMLS for nanocomposite preparation. The internal structure of nano...
