There is difficult to imagine modern production of electrical devices without components containing organic substances. This fact is mainly concerned to composite materials, in which the bond component is made of organic substance. The intricate curing reactions have been proceeding during the composites technological curing as well as during the device operation, where mostly the thermal-oxida...

Both the hardening process and formation of microstructure of concrete are significantly influenced by the curing condition. The capillary absorption of concrete is closely related to the structure and distribution of the pores within the material. This paper presents an experimental study on the influence of four curing conditions, i.e., standard curing, natural curing, water curing, and seale...

One of the most significant defects, porosity, has been proven to affect properties composites. It is critical reduce porosity composite material and curing cost while maintaining high laminate quality for vacuum bag-only prepreg. In this paper, a rapidly cured epoxy resin system was developed, an alkali-free glass fiber fabric prepreg suitable bag molding prepared by asymmetric impregnation me...

How chemical structure changes affect the curing reactions and thermal properties of 2,2 -bis(4-cyanatophenyl) propane (cyanate ester) cured rigid-rod epoxy resins has been studied for biphenol and tetramethyl biphenol epoxies. The formation of an oxazolidinone ring is the dominant curing reaction for biphenol epoxy, whereas the formation of a cyanurate ring is the dominant curing reaction for ...

OBJECTIVE The purpose is to compare temperature rise in the pulp chamber during fabrication of provisional crowns using different materials and on different types of teeth using direct technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS An extracted, sound, caries free maxillary central incisor and a mandibular molar were selected for the study and crown preparations of all ceramic and all metal were done on ce...

Poly methyl methacrylate (PMMA) cement produce exothermic reaction during its polymerization process, which damage the surrounding bone tissue during orthopedic surgery. Nanoparticles additives (magnesium oxide, hydroxyapatite, chitosan, barium sulfate and silica) and alternative monomers (glycidyl methacrylate(GMA) tri-methaxysilyl propyl methacrylate (3MPMA)), can be incorporated with the PMM...

The effects of different bonding parameters, such as temperature, pressure, curing time, bonding temperature ramp and post-processing, on the electrical performance and the adhesive strengths of anisotropic conductive film (ACF) interconnection are investigated. The test results show that the contact resistances change slightly, but the adhesive strengths increase with the bonding temperature i...

A model that describes hydration and heat-mass transport in Portland cement mortar during steam curing was developed. The hydration reactions are described by a maturity function that uses the equivalent age concept, coupled to a heat and mass balance. The thermal conductivity and specific heat of mortar with water-to-cement mass ratio of 0.30 was measured during hydration, using the Transient ...

Concrete is an essential building material which is widely used in construction industry all over the world due to its compressible strength. Curing of concrete plays a vital role in durability and other performance necessities. Improper curing can affect the concrete performance and durability easily. When areas like scarcity of water, structures is not accessible by humans external curing can...

Scalable additive manufacturing of printed electronics is a growing field accompanied by increasing demands for reliable and integrable functional flexible electronic devices. Herein, novel type electrically conducting silver-based pastes demonstrated. These are designed stencil- screen-printing can be post-processed at very low temperatures, ambient. Furthermore, lines made with the exhibit an...
