Experimental Study of Bone Response to a New Surface Treatment of Endosseous Titanium Implants
(2001)
This study examines a new surface treatment that uses coarse calcium phosphate, which provides the benefits of surface roughening without introducing any foreign materials that may become imbedded in the implants. It is ...
Improving the interaction between aluminum surfaces and polymer coatings
(Elsevier, 2019)
To better understand the effect of surface treatments on the efficiency of protective coatings of aluminum alloys, this study assessed different surface treatments for the aluminum alloy AA2024, including mechanical ...
Optimization of sample treatment for the identification of anthraquinone dyes by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy
(Springer Verlag, 2017)
© 2017, Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg. The study and characterization of old artifacts such as pigments requires the use of techniques that need a small amount of sample to perform the analysis because of the high value ...
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering study of L-tryptophan
(2009)
Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) spectra of tryptophan (Trp) were obtained. A unique SERS spectrum of Trp, corresponding to the most stable conformation and orientation on the metal surface, is observed after a ...
Application of a theory of polymer solutions to the cloud points of nonionic detergents
(1969)
The influence of the concentration of nonionic detergents on the cloud point of their aqueous solutions is discussed using Huggins' theory of polymer solutions. The treatment is exemplified by applying the theory to the ...
Repair bond strength of dental composites: systematic review and meta-analysis
(Elsevier Ltd, 2016)
This study investigated by means of a systematic review of the literature and meta-analysis the impact of
physical and/or chemical surface treatments on the repair bond strength of methacrylate-based dental
composites. ...
Laser surface texturing of tial multilayer films-effects of microstructure and topography on friction and wear
(MDPI AG, 2018)
Laser surface texturing is an efficient way to control the friction and wear properties of
materials. Although described in many papers, most previous work relates to a pure topographic
view of laser-textured surfaces. ...
Randomized double-blind clinical trial of autologous serum versus artificial tears in dry eye syndrome
(2012)
Purpose: To determine symptoms improvement in dry eye patients with short-term autologous serum (AS) eyedrops treatment using the standardized Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI) survey. Materials and methods: A double-blind ...
Interleukin 10 decreases MICA expression on melanoma cell surface
(2011)
Natural-killer group 2, member D (NKG2D) binds to a variety of ligands, including the major histocompatibility complex (MHC)
class I chain-related proteins (MIC) and UL16-binding proteins (ULBP). It is regarded as a ...
Influence of aramid fiber treatment and carbon nanotubes on the interfacial strength of polypropylene hierarchical composites
(Elsevier, 2017)
The microbond test was used to evaluate the interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of multiscale composites based on a polypropylene (PP) matrix reinforced with aramid fibers (AFs) chemically treated by two methods and coated ...
