Effect of Load, Load dependent nature of Micro hardness measurement and Doping Effect on untreated samples and Micro hardness studies on the effect of charge due to electrical stress on the samples of pure and Rhodamine doped PMMA with different weights proportions have been carried out using Vicker’s micro hardness testing for hardened networks plasticization and crystallization. Some selected...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of multiple layers of an infection control barrier on the micro-hardness of a composite resin. MATERIAL AND METHODS One, two, four, and eight layers of an infection control barrier were used to cover the light guides of a high-power light emitting diode (LeD) light curing unit (LCU) and a low-power halogen LCU. The composite specimens...

  Objective: Tooth surface undergoes continuous remineralization and demineralization. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of Caseinphosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) paste and Fluoride gel on the microhardness of demineralized enamel lesions.   Methods: Frothy eight specimens of premolar teeth were chosen and randomly divided to 4 groups of 12. After the initial m...

in this study, aluminum (al) matrix reinforced with micro-particles (30 µm) and nano-particles (50 nm) boron carbide (b4c) were used to prepare al-2.5%wt., b4c nano-composite and micro-composite, respectively, using mechanical alloying method. the mixed powders were mechanically milled at 5, 10, 15 and 20 hrs. the xrd results indicated that the crystallite sizes of both the micro-composite and ...

Objectives: The effect of ceramics construction (pressable, machinable) and corrosion on flexural strength and micro-hardness was studied. Materials & Methods: Two types of ceramics were tested: IPS e-max Press and IPS e-max CAD. Forty samples were constructed and divided into 2 groups according to the type of ceramics. Each group was then subdivided into 2 subgroups. Subgroups 1 were not subje...

Co-deposition of zinc metal matrix with ZnO composite was fabricated from electrolytic chloride based coating consisting of 20-40g/L ZnO particle. The resulting composite coatings were characterized using high optic microscope (OPM). The corrosion resistance properties of Zn-ZnO composite coatings were measure using linear polarization in 3.5% NaCl solution. The variation of amount of ZnO %wt. ...

In this present study, A356.2 Al/Rice hush ash (RHA) metal matrix composites (MMCs) were fabricated by vortex method. Different weight fractions of reinforcement were used to fabricate the composites. Scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive Xray analyzer is used for micro structural characterization. The properties like density, hardness, and ultimate tensile strength were ...

in this study, as for the re-casting, surface alloying and re-solidification layer of this alloys at the work piece level machining with wire electro discharge machining (wedm), changes of surface micro hardness with changes of operational parameters has been studied. therefore, study shows using surface alloying phenomena with the diffusion of wire material into the machined surface and select...

In present novel work, we have synthesized a novel quaternary Se76Te20Sn2Cd2 glass in bulk form. Four laser light sources from UV-Vis-IR region have been used to investigate the laser-induced effects on the micro-hardness to check the candidature of this material for possible application in fiber optics. The micro-hardness of the quaternary Se76Te20Sn2Cd2 glass is increased appreciably after la...
