The aim of this study was to evaluate the surface roughness of 5 indirect restorative materials treated with hydrofluoric acid to 10%, with aluminum oxide jet and a combination of both. The specimens was prepared with 10 ...

Purpose: To evaluate the surface roughness and staining of a glass ionomer cement when subjected to different finishing procedures. Materials and Methods: Sixty-four discs of Chem-Fil II glass ionomer cement were submitted ...

The effect of the aluminum oxide on the thermal synthesis of the glycine-glutamic acid (Gly-Glu-(Gly-Glu)(n) polymer is described. The thermal synthesis in the molten state was carried out in the absence and presence of ...

The present study reports a two-level multivariate analysis to optimize the production of anodized aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ) dielectric films for zinc oxide thin-film transistors (TFTs). Fourteen performance parameters ...

During the grinding process, cutting fluids are essential to guarantee the surface quality of the workpieces. On the other hand, these fluids can also compromise the efficiency of the process to view the alignment of ...

In this work, the electrochemical behavior of Cu-16(wt.%)Zn-6.5(wt.%)Al alloy containing the β'-phase (martensite) was studied in borate buffer solution (pH 8.4) by means of open-circuit potential (EOC), electrochemical ...
