Relationship of Eugenolate Formation to the Setting Mechanism of Zinc Oxide Eugenol Cements

Thermal analysis of zinc oxide-eugenol cements during setting.

It has been accepted traditionally that the setting of zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) cements is the result of the formation of zinc eugenolate crystals.1 A recent study pointed out that at least seven hours elapsed before zinc eugenolate crystals precipitated from a clear solution of zinc acetate in eugenol.2 Accelerated ZOE, however, set in as short a time as three minutes.3 Electron microscopy, el...

Setting Reaction of Zinc Oxide and Eugenol !

Zinc oxide-eugenol mixtures have been used in dentistry for a number of years. The setting mechanism of these mixtures was investigated.

Physical properties of some zinc oxide-eugenol cements.

Clinical studies of dental cements. I. Five zinc oxide-eugenol cements.

Zinc oxide-eugenol cements have long been used to cement temporary restorations in teeth prepared for inlays, crowns, or fixed bridges,1'2 and a variety of products is available to the dentist. During the last 25 years, the physical properties of these materials have been studied, and numerous improvements in physical characteristics and manipulative qualities have been achieved.3 't Little inf...

contribution of setting to the study of characters and the main idea in e. brontes: wuthering heights and t. hardys: return of the native.

this thesis aims to adduce an unmitigated and comprehensive explication concerning the relationship of three significant elements of fiction: setting, chracter and theme. my research is basically placed on two outstanding novels of the 19th century: emily brontes wuthering heights and thomas hardys return of the native. my endeavour lies in studying the correlation among the three above-mention...
