elastomer compound based on nr/br was prepared using different kinds of nano-zno and zno. the effect of zinc oxide as an activator of sulfur cure on the mechanical and morphological properties of the compound was studied. the result of the mechanical properties showed that the tensile strength, elongation-at-break, resilience, and abrasion resistance of the compound prepared by zno (4 phr) are ...

in this paper, synthesis of the flower-like zinc oxide was performed using microwave assisted dicationic ionic liquid [mmp(im)2 ]br2 . the polycrystalline flower-like zinc oxide nanostructure was obtained when a suitable mole ratio (ionic liquid /zinc acetate) and short duration microwave was used. x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), and photoluminescence (pl) spectra w...

background: obtaining optimal marginal adaption with prefabricated stainless steel crowns (sscs) is diffi cult, especially after removing dental caries or defects in cervical areas. this situation requires the use of an ssc after tooth reconstruction. this study evaluated microleakage and material loss with fi ve restorative materials at ssc margins. materials and methods: one hundred and twent...

this experiment was conducted in order to evaluate the effects of foliar application of ordinary and nano-particles of zinc oxide on the response of corn to salinity. treatments included two corn genotypes (seed mass and sc 704), three spray levels (zinc oxide, nano-sized zinc oxide, and a spray of water treatment) and three salinity levels (0, 75 and 150 mm nacl). shoot dry matter was decrease...

Zinc oxide-eugenol cements have long been used to cement temporary restorations in teeth prepared for inlays, crowns, or fixed bridges,1'2 and a variety of products is available to the dentist. During the last 25 years, the physical properties of these materials have been studied, and numerous improvements in physical characteristics and manipulative qualities have been achieved.3 't Little inf...

The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro the antimicrobial activity of glass ionomer (GIC) and zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) cements against Candida albicans. Standardized GIC and ZOE specimens were maintained in contact with C. albicans suspension (1 x 10(6) cells/ml) at 37 degrees C for 24 h, 48 h or 7 days. A control group without any testing cement was included. After the incubation period...

Introduction: Pulpectomy is a conservative treatment plan for primary necrotic teeth and Zinc Oxide Eugenol is still a good choice as root canal filling material but long term studies on poor prognosis molars are limited and almost contradictory. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical and radiographical success rate of pulpectomy of necrotic primary molars using ZOE as the root c...
