Mold Shape Deposition Manufacturing (Mold SDM) is a Solid Freeform Fabrication technique for producing complex shaped fugitive wax molds. A variety of castable polymer and ceramic materials have been used to make parts from these molds. This paper describes the Mold SDM method and an automated mold building machine based on a commercial CNC mill. Process steps, material selection and equipment ...

Composition B is a melt-castable explosive consisting of RDX crystals in a TNT matrix. At elevated temperatures, the TNT can flow or even melt, which affects the particle distribution and therefore the detonation propagation. To study this phenomenon, rate stick experiments were conducted at ambient conditions, at temperatures below the TNT melt, and at temperatures above the TNT melt. We field...

Colloidal silica bonded refractory castables have been developed recently. It was found that colloidal silica is one of the best binders can substitute other binders such as cement in No Cement Castable (NCC) and Ultra Low Cement Castable (ULCC) refractories. Also composition of colloidal silica with appropriate additives resulted in a gel form which makes the initial strength. Moreover, the na...

Abstract Fixed prosthetic option is the most accepted treatment desired by patient in modern times. Malpositioned implant presents a challenge, especially during phase. The achievement of various complex cases can be done following appropriate procedure; one which has been discussed this report. use transmucosal abutment with castable successful for malposed single dental implant.
