Short fibre-reinforced adhesives (SFRAs) are increasingly used in wind turbine blades to enhance stiffness and fatigue resistance, yet their heterogeneous microstructure poses significant challenges for predictive modelling. This study presents a ful...
Bio-based phenolic resins were developed with phenol substitution levels of 20% and 40% with crude extracts obtained from spent coffee grounds. The experimental resins were characterized in terms of their physical, chemical and bonding properties and...
Chañar brea gum exhibits properties that make it a promising material for paper adhesion. As the concentration of chañar brea gum (CBG) in solution increases, the following key changes are observed in its properties, which are relevant...
The interfacial adhesion of fibres with the polymer matrix plays a major role in the mechanical properties of fibre-reinforced polymers (FRPs) [...]
Deep margin elevation (DME) is a widely adopted technique for managing subgingival cervical proximal margins by repositioning them to a supragingival location. This approach enhances access, visibility, and control in these anatomically challenging a...
Adhesion plays a crucial role across a wide range of natural systems and technological applications. High adhesion is typically observed in contacts involving highly deformable materials, which are generally viscoelastic in nature. Although some of t...
Purpose: The aim of this in vitro study was to investigate the adhesive bond strength of glass fiber posts when cemented with universal resin cement in two different adhesion modes: adhesive and self-adhesive. Methods: A total of 20 extracted single-...
Tapes are widely utilized across various industries, offering versatile solutions for bonding, sealing, and packaging applications. Their ease of use, strength, and adaptability make them essential in manufacturing, construction, and consumer markets...
The classical approach for the preparation of an endodontically treated molar with a post and core involves widening the anatomically complex system of canals, which may be narrow or curved with variable angulation. The aforementioned along with the...
Natural adhesives such as tree resins, gums, and tars have been used since prehistoric times (going back to at least 200,000 years [...]
