Abstract A novel method of starch modification was developed to obtain thermoplastic starch plastics with improved comprehensive properties. Corn starch was oxidized under mild conditions using sodium periodate to prepare dialdehyde starch, which had an acceptable average molecular weight. The dialdehyde starch with 3…
A series of luminescent platinum(II) terpyridyl acetylide complexes, ([Pt(tpy)(CCPh)]ClO4 (1) and [Pt(ttpy)(CC-p-C6H4R)]ClO4, where tpy=terpyridine, ttpy=4'-p-tolylterpyridine, R=H, Cl, Me) (2-4) were studied with regard to excited-state quenching by dialkylated bipyridinium cations as electron acceptors and triethano…
Boron carbide disks with three different grain sizes were consolidated from submicrometer‐sized boron carbide powder using the plasma pressure compaction technique. Static and dynamic indentations were performed to determine their loading‐rate dependence on mechanical properties. Dynamic indentations resulted in a dec…
Abstract The high efficiency and mild reaction conditions associated with the Cu(I) catalyzed cycloaddition of azides and alkynes were exploited for the covalent layer‐by‐layer synthesis of dendritic thin films on silicon wafers. The preparation of azide and alkyne‐terminated dendrimers based on bisMPA was accomplishe…
A single-domain thermodynamic theory is employed to predict the spontaneous polarizations of (001)c, (101)c, and (111)c oriented epitaxial BiFeO3 thin films grown on dissimilar substrates. The effects of various substrate-induced strains on the spontaneous polarization were studied. The dependences of the spontaneous…
A series of two-level hierarchical structures on polystyrene (PS) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were fabricated using sequential nanoimprinting lithography (NIL). The hierarchical structures consist of micrometer and sub-micrometer scale grating imprinted with varying orientations. Through water contact angle m…
Polyurethanes have been used in a series of applications due basically to their versatility in terms of controlling the behavior by altering basically the type of reagents used. However, for more specific and advanced applications, such as in membranes, biomaterials and sensors, well-organized and defined chemical fun…
An alternative to etching enamel for retention of an adhesive is to grow crystals on the enamel surface. The potential advantages of crystal growth include easy procedure and less damage to the enamel. These crystals retain the adhesive or are the actual dental restoration. In this work, a paste of synthetic enamel wa…
The present study aimed to determine the physical and mechanical properties of laboratory concrete made with different proportions of cork powder. While the resulting material lacked the mechanical strength characteristic of concrete, its properties may prove to be apt for certain hardscaping and agricultural uses, su…
Biocements formed from the composition Ca/P have been studied and developed since 1983. These biomaterials are promissing and have aroused great interest to biomedical surgery applications, fixation of prostheses and filling and reconstruction of bones. They can be employed as an element of load to fix implant and bon…
The effect of post-polymerization treatments (MW-microwave irradiation and WB-water-bath) on the degree of conversion (DC) of three reline resins (Ufi Gel hard-U, Kooliner-K, and Tokuso Rebase Fast-T) and one denture base resin (Lucitone 550-L), submitted to two polymerization cycles (LS-short and LL-long), was evalua…
A new procedure was used to prepare a microcrystalline powder constituted by thin euhedral hexagonal gibbsite plates, 0.2 to 0.6 µm in diameter and 32 nm thick. The powder, fired between 200 and 1000 °C, produced chi and kappa transition aluminas. Alpha-alumina is formed from 1000 °C and recrystallized up to 1500 °C.…
Permlastic® is a polysulfide-based impression material widely used by dentists in Brazil. It is composed of a base paste and a catalyzer containing lead dioxide. The high toxicity of lead to humans is ground for much concern, since it can attack various systems and organs. The present study involved a quantitative ana…
Sol-gel film in the SiO2-CaO-P2O5 system was prepared from TEOS, TEP, alcohol and hydrated calcium nitrate in an acidic medium. The coatings were deposited on stainless steel using the dip-coating technique. After deposition, the composite was submitted to heat treatment, at different temperatures and exposure times t…
One of the most significant effects of reinforcing steel corrosion on reinforced concrete structures is the decline in the ductility-related properties of the steel. Such properties condition the behaviour of reinforced concrete structures and must be taken into account when re-engineering corroded members, for even t…
