TiO2 thin films on polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) substrates were prepared on Al foils using reactive dc magnetron sputtering followed by transformation to the PMMA substrates via chemical method. The films were prepared at different temperature preparation routes of 100, 150 and 200 °C. XRD revealed the formation amorphous structure for films prep...

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effects of different waiting periods on resin-dentin bond strength (BS), degree of conversion (DC), contact angle (CA), surface tension (ST), solvent evaporation (weight loss) and the characteristics of adhesive interfaces of the current six universal adhesive resins (ARs). A total of 216 caries-free h...

This study investigates photo-degradation of tridecafluoro-1,1,2,2-tetrahydrooctyltrimethoxysilane (FAS13) used for antisticking surface modifiers in nanoimprint lithography by exposure to vacuum UV light (VUV; λ = 172 nm) or UV/ozone (λ = 185 and 254 nm). The degradation of FAS13 molecules chemisorbed on silicon surfaces was monitored sensitively ...

Hydrogen can be a renewable energy carrier and is suggested to store renewable energy and mitigate carbon dioxide emissions. Subsurface storage of hydrogen in salt caverns, deep saline formations, and depleted oil/gas reservoirs would help to overcome imbalances between supply and demand of renewable energy. Hydrogen, however, is one of the most im...

Wood coatings prolong the service life of wood-based products, but they are usually of synthetic origin. The aim of the present article is to reduce the fossil-based compounds in a commercial waterborne acrylic coating by CNC addition and to test its performance. The coatings were applied on European beech and Norway spruce wood in order to test du...

The surface properties of drug containers should reduce the adsorption of the drug and avoid packaging surface/drug interactions, especially in the case of biologically-derived products. Here, we developed a multi-technique approach that combined Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Contact Angle (CA), Quartz Crys...

In this research, an experiment was conducted on how the surface wettability and biocompatibility of staplers' titanium nails impact the healing of gastrointestinal tissue. Firstly, the bionic hexagonal structure was prepared on the surface of Ti metal by laser processing technology, and the laser textured titanium samples were observed by scanning...

The effects of different emulsifiers, such as soy protein isolate-sucrose ester (SPI-SE) and whey protein isolate-sucrose ester (WPI-SE), on the properties of the emulsion during the microencapsulation of cannabis oil were studied. The influence of SE concentration on the emulsion properties of the two emulsifying systems was analyzed. The results ...

The main aim of this article was to develop new glaze receipts (NGRs) to build up the acid resistance (AR) of commercial glazes (CGs) used in floor tile production. The glaze is a vitrified material that melts the surface of the ceramic material. Improvements were made during and after the manufacture, based on the glaze samples of the CGs. NGRs we...

Generally, the major problems of moisture damage are caused by wetting, and particularly in construction, which has led to extensive research for the production of hydrophobic (anti-wetting) coatings. The aim of this research is to prepare an anti-wetting (hydrophobic) nanocomposite coating for different construction surfaces (ceramic, brick and gy...
