Most industrially used synthetic wood adhesives release formaldehyde, which is carcinogenic for humans. Adhesiveless bonding of can be achieved using heat treatment by either hot-pressing method, suitable mainly particles and fibres or welding. Welding wood, relies on the generated via friction, two more solid pieces together. The process carried out linear rotational This review first consider...

Ti–22Al–26Nb(at.%) and Ti–22Al–26Nb–5B(at.%) compacts were processed from gas atomized prealloyed powders by field assisted hot pressing (FAHP) for between 600 1200 s at temperatures 725 1070 °C the resulting microstructures compared. The average powder diameters ranged 50 100 μm, where both B-containing FAHP contained elongated B-rich needles. microstructure in depended on processing temperatu...

BACKGROUND Simultaneous presentation of non-noxious warm (40°C) and cold (20°C) stimuli in an interlacing fashion results in a transient hot burning noxious sensation (matched at 46°C) known as the thermal grill (TG) illusion. Functional magnetic resonance imaging and psychophysical assessments were utilized to compare the supraspinal events related to the spatial summation effect of three TG p...

Introduction: There is currently significant interest in all-ceramic dental restorations. A potential non-metallic material for such restorations is an apatite-mullite glass-ceramic that could be processed to shape using different processing techniques. The aim of this study was to assess and evaluate the ability of an apatite-mullite glass-ceramic material to be processed using three routes: l...

Amputation of a segment of the tail produced long-lasting changes in nociception and morphine-induced antinociception. Plastic changes in nociceptive transmission may occur at the spinal cord as well as supraspinal structures after tail amputation. Acute hyperalgesia is detected at the remaining part of the tail as well as hindpaw. Morphine induced facilitation of the hot-plate (HP) response at...

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness of hydrogen peroxide (HP) use as a disinfectant in the hospital water network for the control of Legionella spp. colonization. METHODS Following the detection of high levels of Legionella contamination in a 136-bed general hospital water network, an HP treatment of the hot water supply (25 mg/L) was adopted. During a period of 34 months, the effectiven...

Introduction: The differences between Capacitive and Resistive electric transfer (CRet) and hot pack (HP) in their effects on tissue temperature, muscle flexibility, and blood circulation are unknown. This study aimed to clarify the effect of CRet and HP on tissue temperature, muscle flexibility, and blood circulation. Methods: The participants were 13 healthy adults. They randomly performed th...
