Aim: The purpose of this study was to assess the shear bond strength of the teeth prepared for bonding with different power outputs of Erbium, Chromium doped: Yttrium-ScandiumGallium-Garnet (Er,Cr:YSGG) laser etching and to compare different power outputs of laser etching with 37% phosphoric acid. Materials and methods: A total of 105 premolars, extracted for orthodontic purposes were randomly ...

a preliminary study on statistical modelling of a process for depolymerisation of cassava non-starch carbohydrate using halide salt assisted phosphoric and pyruvic acids were accomplished. the effects of three independent variables namely; acid concentration, potassium iodide salt and duration were studied using the central composite rotatable design on hydrolysis of the cassava non-starch carb...

In this study, a 35% phosphoric acid gel (3M Scotchbond etchant), a nonrinse etchant (NRC), and two EDTA-containing conditioners (RC-Prep and File-Eze) were tested in vitro for blocking nerve conductance evoked in the rat sciatic nerve after local application. The phosphoric acid gel and NRC completely and irreversibly inhibited conductance. On the other hand, RC-Prep reduced the compound actio...

A key requirement for three-dimensional printing (3-DP) at room temperature of medical implants depends on the availability of printable and biocompatible binder-powder systems. Different concentration polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and phosphoric acid solutions were chosen as the binders to make the artificial stent biocompatible with sufficient compressive strength. In order to achieve an optimum ba...

In this study, a new mild steel surface pretreatment solution is introduced based on phosphoric acid containing a benzimidazole derivative as inhibitor. In this way, three different benzimidazole derivatives namely benzimidazole BI, 2-methyl benzimidazole 2MBI and 2-aminobenzimidazole 2ABI were studied in the 1M H3PO4 using DC and AC electrochemical techniques. Results revealed the better corro...

Commercialization of three processes (OPPA, DBPA-TOPO and OPAP) has shown that the DEPA-TOPO process offers the best technology available today for the recovery of uranium from wet-process phosphoric acid. Uranium recovery plants using this process have been successfully operated in the United States, Belgium, Canada and Taiwan. Operating experience from these plants has led to a significant re...

In the last few years considerable evidence has accumulated to show that the lipoid compounds of phosphoric acid of the type of lecithin are probably of great importance in the metabolism of the fats. For example a marked increase has been observed in lecithin in the blood and particularly in the corpuscles during fat absorption (1). In those pathological conditions where the blood lipoids are ...

Research has shown that aluminum sulfate (alum) and phosphoric acid greatly reduce ammonia (NH3) volatilization from poultry litter; however, no studies have yet reported the effects of these amendments on field-scale composting of poultry litter. The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate NH3 volatilization from composting litter by measuring both NH3 volatilization and changes in total...
