A standard cooling rate has not been established for glazing; therefore, the effects of the cooling rate on the properties of zirconia need to be evaluated to predict outcomes in clinical practice. 4Y-TZP glazed at three different cooling rates was analyzed to estimate the effect of cooling rate during glazing on the mechanical and optical properti...
The type of glazing implemented in a building plays an important role in the heat management of a building. Solar heat entering through glazing causes overheating of interior spaces and increases building’s cooling load. In this work, the energy saving potential of window films based on Cholesteric Liquid Crystals (CLC) is explored. This emerging t...
The number of commercial products claiming self-cleaning properties is rising and testing of long-term activity and durability of such coatings needs to be addressed more. The time-dependent changes of different characteristics like haze, transparency, and color are essential for transparent glazing materials. Herein, we aimed to examine whether th...
Namen diplomskega dela je bil ugotoviti, ali je z uporabo zaščitnih stekel možno preprečiti ali zmanjšati fotodegradacijo odtisa, izdelanega s kapljičnim tiskalnikom. Teoretični del predstavlja pregled tehnologije kapljičnega tiska in njene uporabe. Predstavi tudi problematiko fotodegradacije materialov in odtisov. Sledi pregled materialov in metod...
Výsledkem diplomové práce je porovnání způsobů úpravy vnitřní teploty rodinného domu za účelem zlepšení vnitřního klimatu v letním období. Navrhované systémy chlazení a stínicí techniky jsou porovnány na základě provozu a investičních nákladů. Současně je uvažován provoz v zimním období a následně je porovnávána změna tepelné zátěže při změně rozmě...
Mussel (Mytilus edulis) is an economic shellfish with a high nutritional value. Due to the high amount of protein and fat, fresh mussels are susceptible to spoilage during storage. In the present study, how a combination of pullulan, acidic electrolyzed water (AEW), and stable chlorine dioxide (ClO2) ice-glazing treatments affect the quality of mus...
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relative attenuation of VIS, UV and NIR solar radiation through a large pond skylight into the interior of the l’Almoina Archaeological Museum (Valencia, Spain), and to determine how relative attenuation varied throughout the year and time of day. Measurements were taken at 9:00 a.m., 12:00 p.m. and ...

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of glazing, reglazing, and chairside polishing on the surface roughness of dental porcelain. Materials and Methods: A total of 50 discs of feldspathic porcelain were fabricated using a metal mold of dimension 10 mm × 2 mm. Based on the surface treatment, the samples were divided into five groups...

To determine the efficacy of various finishing and polishing techniques on the surface roughness of two computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) materials, lithium disilicate (IPS e.max), lithium disilicate reinforced with lithium aluminosilicate (Straumann® n!ce™), and a stackable low-fusing nanofluorapatite glass ceramic (Cera...
Glazing is one of the dominant features of modern and contemporary architecture. This envelope design may have a great impact on operational energy demand of buildings. In this work, glazed façade systems available in Argentina are analyzed, with the purpose of determining the associated thermal transmittance ranges, in terms of the profiles’ desig...
