Impact of carbonation and fiber hornification on the performance of fiber-cements

Low-Carbon Materials and Green Construction
The present study evaluates the effect and advantages of the combined use of two treatments on fiber-cement composites: 1) accelerated carbonation on the cement matrix and 2) hornification of commercially used unbleached pine pulp (Pinus radiata D. Don).

Physical-Mechanical Characterization of Direct Restorative Dental Materials

, 2012
Direct restorative dental materials possess very special characteristics. These materials operate in a singular environment that is the mouth. The factors at play are numerous and their variation range is important. Humidity, load cycles, pH, temperature, bacteria, external agents, environment, material properties and contact geometry, etc., are some ...
