(1) Objectives: This work examined properties of dental monomer formulations an aromatic dimethacylate (BisGMA), aliphatic urethane dimethacrylate (UDMA), and triethylene glycol (TEGDMA). The monomers were combined in different ratio heat-polymerized containing the initiator benzoyl peroxide (BPO) specifically for purpose infiltration into polymer-infiltrated composite structures. (2) Methods: ...

The present study aimed to prepare experimental adhesives (EAs): 5 wt.% titanium dioxide (TiO2) adhesive; and zirconium oxide (ZrO2) analyze their impact on bond integrity of fiber posts root dentin, viscosity. EA was composed of: bisphenol A glycol dimethacrylate (BisGMA); triethylene (TEGDMA); 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA); ethyl 4-dimethylamino benzoate camphorquinone. TiO2 ZrO2 particl...

Triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) and 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), two resin monomers often used in dental restorative materials, are leached due to insufficient polymerization contact cells of the oral cavity. Despite reports on cytotoxicity these different cells, their effects melanocytes remain unknown. This first report provides novel data impact TEGDMA HEMA melanocyte viabi...

As additive manufacturing becomes more prevalent in industrial facilities, so does human interaction with these machines. In this study, we characterized the size-resolved concentrations of particulate matter (PM, from ≈ 11 to 20,000 nm size) and volatile organic compounds (VOC) resulting a material-jetting (Projet 5500X), multi jet fusion (HP MJF 4200), photopolymerization (Carbon 3D continuou...

An in-house designed membrane process suitable for subsea natural gas dehydration was studied. The use of a absorber together with thermopervaporation (TPV) unit solvent regeneration in closed loop enables the effective and clean production high-pressure close to wellhead. This avoids continuous chemical injection preventing hydrate formation pipelines. absorbent agent (triethylene glycol (TEG)...

Control of surface chemistry and protein adsorption is important for using microfluidic devices for biochemical analysis and high-throughput screening assays. This paper describes the control of protein adsorption at the liquid-liquid interface in a plug-based microfluidic system. The microfluidic system uses multiphase flows of immiscible fluorous and aqueous fluids to form plugs, which are aq...

We established a sustained vasohibin-1 (a 42-kDa protein), delivery device by a novel method using photopolymerization of a mixture of polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate, triethylene glycol dimethacrylate, and collagen microparticles. We evaluated its effects in a model of rat laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV) using a transscleral approach. We used variable concentrations of vaso...

Semiconductor photocatalytic performances can be modulated through morphology modification. Herein porous hierarchical BiOBr microspheres (BiOBr-MS) of ~3 μm was firstly self-assembled without the assistance a template via facile solvothermal synthesis in triethylene glycol (TEG) at 150 °C for 3 h. KBrO3 exploited as bromine source, which slowly provided bromide ions upon reduction TEG and cont...
