Hops (Humulus lupulus L. Cannabaceae) is an economically important crop, that has drawn more attention in recent years due to its potential pharmaceutical applications. Bitter acids (prenylated polyketides) and prenylflavonoids are the primary phytochemical components that account for hops resins medicinal value. We have previously reported on utilizing untargeted NMR and MS metabolomics for an...

A survey is given on the various options to seal water ingress from strata and from concrete structures by injecting different types of resins showing the scope and limits of the individual grouts. The report covers methacrylates and polyurethane hydrogels, one and two component polyurethane resins as well as silicate isocyanate resins. The use of fast reacting two component polyurethane resins...

The aim of this study was to optimize the concentration of 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyldiphenylphosphine oxide (Lucirin® TPO) in unfilled and filled composite resins in relation to the degree of conversion (DC). Increasing concentrations of Lucirin® TPO between 0.05-4.97 wt% were added to equimolar mixtures of Bis-GMA/TEGDMA. Filled resins contained 75 wt% fillers. Standardized samples were cured usi...

Acrylic resins have been widely used due to their acceptable esthetics and desirable characteristics such as easy handling, good thermal conductivity, low permeability to oral fluids and color stability. Flexible resins were introduced on the market as an alternative to the use of conventional acrylic resins in the construction of complete and partial removable dentures. Although these resins p...

A coordination-assisted synthetic approach is reported here for the synthesis of highly active and stable gold nanoparticle catalysts in ordered mesoporous carbon materials using triblock copolymer F127 as a structure-directing agent, thiol-containing silane as a coordination agent, HAuCl4 as a gold source, and phenolic resin as a carbon source. Upon carbonization, the gold precursor becomes re...

Poly(vinyl chloride) resins are produced by four basic processes: suspension, emulsion, bulk and solution polymerization. PVC suspensions resins are usually relatively dust-free and granular with varying degrees of particle porosity. PVC emulsion resins are small particle powders containing very little free monomer. Bulk PVC resins are similar to suspension PVC resins, though the particles tend...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM Dynamic mechanical properties of hard, direct reline resins are important factors in the clinical success of dentures. However, little information is available on the nature of these properties. PURPOSE This study evaluated the dynamic mechanical properties of a variety of hard, direct reline resins: (1) visible light-polymerized, powder-liquid type, (2) visible light-pol...

A petroleum fluid can be di®ided into three types of species: asphaltenes, resins, and oils. Asphaltenes and resins are polar, while the rest of the so-called oils are either nonpolar or mildly polar. The interaction among these species strongly affect asphaltene precipitation from petroleum fluids. Different measuring methods for asphaltenes in a petroleum fluid gi®e similar results, but diffe...

Background and Purpose: In people wearing dentures, the growth of various Candida species under the prosthesis leads to the formation of biofilm, which can play the role of a reservoir for Candida and other kinds of microbes. Since nano-chitosan particles can cause lasting antimicrobial activity, a more recent approach that utilizes acrylic resins with nano-chitosan particles is proposed. Th...
