statement of problem: low- fusing compound (type 1) is used for border molding and impressions. flow and reproducibility of surface detail are two important characteristics of these materials. there are no valid data available comparing domestic and imported brands. purpose: the purpose of this study was to evaluate these two properties of four different products including kerr (kerr manufactur...

C C Modeling plastic impression compound (MPIC) is defined as a thermoplastic dental impression material composed of wax, rosin, resins, and colorants.1 Low-fusing compound (type 1) is used for border molding and impressions. Flow and reproducibility of surface detail are important characteristics of these materials.2 Border molding with MPIC can record accurate border detail; however, it can b...

The article describes a simple, quick and corrective technique for making the preliminary impression. It records the extensions better as compared to the impressions made using only impression compound. This technique is accurate and gives properly extended custom tray. Any deficiencies seen in the compound primary impression are corrected using this technique hence, this technique is called as...

the study of flow in compound channels with vegetated floodplains is essential to assessing the development of the stage-discharge relationship and sediment and pollutant transport. the present study experimentally investigated mean flow and turbulence characteristics in a prismatic compound channel. the experimental program consisted of vegetated and non-vegetated floodplains with different re...

secondary flow investigation could be regarded as an important issue in open channel flow, in spite of its lower quantity compared to the base flow in the water course. it should be given special consideration because of the influence on some hydraulic factors in open channel, specifically in compound channels. in compound channels' due to the difference in the flow velocity of the main ch...
