irrelevant. Chemistry and the relations between science, technology, and industry are well surveyed by Crosland and Cardwell respectively. Forbes's essay on mathematical cosmography is not a comprehensive account but the story (albeit interesting) of a few German cartographers. Compared with other recent collections of essays in the history of science, this volume parades no party line: witness...

Long-Retained Gutta Percha Pessary

The thermomechanical properties of gutta-percha. I. The compressibility of gutta-percha.

Sample wafers of compounded dental gutta-percha and uncompounded dental-grade gutta-percha were compression tested to 20,000 pounds in uniaxial and triaxial systerns. Unrestrained flow in the uniaxial series prevented development of stress levels sufficient to produce molecular compression. Negligible molecular compression did occur in the triaxial series but only above a stress level of approx...

Shrinkage of backfill gutta-percha upon cooling.

INTRODUCTION The temperature and related shrinking kinetics of gutta-percha injected from heat guns are not known; therefore, we investigated them in this study. METHODS The temperatures of 3 different backfill gutta-percha brands extruded from 3 commercially available heat guns set to 200°C were studied. To validate the results, temperature development of 1 gutta-percha brand injected from a...
