Polyester has been used as a prosthetic socket base. It is well documented that the raw material of base should have exhibited good mechanical properties. Prosthetic device connects an artificial limb with amputee part. In this work, seven laminated composites were prepared using vacuum technique from polyester resin and reinforced Jute, Carbon, Glass, Perlon fibers. The objective study to manu...

The structural performance, reliability and durability of polymer composites can now be correlated with three generic classes of internal defects. The _first generic class of chemical structure defects (size 10-lOOA) that control critical design properties such as glass transition T 0 , moisture absorption, and dimensional changes can be controlled by chemical analysis of raw materials prior to...

AIMS The aim was to evaluate the incidence of root fracture of endodontically treated teeth reinforced with glass-fiber posts and metal posts luted with different luting cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty maxillary central incisors were sectioned at 1 mm of the cementoenamel junction and endodontically treated. The teeth were divided into four groups (n = 10) and restored with prefabricated...

Abstract The performance/weight ratio of fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites makes them the material choice for structural applications in many fields such as aerospace, aeronautics, automotive and civil engineering...etc. In composites, fibers used reinforcement are mainly synthetic carbon and/or glass fibers. To ensure low cost using fiber-reinforced materials motor vehicles, it is pro...

Fiber-metal laminates (FMLs) such as Kevlar reinforced aluminum laminate (ARALL), 18 Carbon reinforced aluminum laminate (CARALL), and Glass reinforced aluminum laminate 19 (GLARE) offer great potential for weight reduction applications in automobile and aerospace 20 construction. In order to investigate the feasibility for utilizing such materials in the form of 21 laminates, sheet hydro-bulgi...

Since the early 1930s, the process of melting glass and subsequently forming fibers, in particular discontinuous fiber glass or continuous glass filaments, evolved into commercial-scale manufacturing. Most commonly, a direct melt process is applied. Thereby, the several raw materials were mixed, fed into a furnace, melted and forwarded to the fiber-forming units. Here, the filaments are formed ...
