The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical behavior of three composites with nanoparticles Filtek Z350 XT (3M ESPE), Esthet X (Dentsply), Grandio (Voco) in enamel and body shades (A2) trough nanohardness, elastic modulus, compressive strength test, flexural strength test, diametral tensile strength, flexural modulus, weight filler content and Knoop microhardness. One sample of eac...

Aims and Objective Denture fractures are a common problem in clinical practice. Despite the use of different reinforcement materials (metal wires, metal plates, and various types of fibers) for denture repairs, recurrent fractures are still common. The purpose of this study was to compare the maximum flexural loads of the heat-polymerized denture base resin when repaired with autopolymerizing r...

In this research, creation of higher mechanical natural fiber mat composites was proposed. The hybrid mat with jute and glass mat was fabricated by needle punching system, in which jute mat was placed on glass mat. The ratio of jute and glass mat layers was set to be 1:0,1:1,1:2 and 2:1, respectively. The composites were fabricated by hand-lay up method with unsaturated polyester resin after ne...

background: scuba diving is one of the fastest growing sports in the world. the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of pressure variations to which divers are exposed on the pull out strength of glass fiber post luted with different cements. materials and methods: in this in vitro study, 120 extracted, single-rooted lower premolars were endodontically treated. they were randomly ...

the effect of the filler content and the different type of wood flour on the mechanical properties of polyethylene- date palm wood flour (dpwf) composite which are gathered from date palm tree annual pruning was studied. the different types of dpwf were stem, leaf and the mixture of stem and leaf. composites were made at 45, 60 and 75 % by weight filler contents. the particle size was 25-40 mes...
