Improved ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3 ceramics via sintering in low oxygen partial pressure atmosphere and adding LiF

Journal of Advanced Dielectrics, 2021
Dense (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3 lead-free ceramics with the simple composition were prepared via sintering in low oxygen partial pressure (pO2, ∼10−12 atm) atmosphere and adding LiF. All the ceramics have pure orthorhombic structure.

DENTA: A Dual Enzymatic Nanoagent for Self‐Activating Tooth Whitening and Biofilm Disruption

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The nanoapatite with dual enzymes (DENTA) accumulates in dentinal tubules, reducing hypersensitivity caused by dental nerve exposure and facilitating continuous ROS generation through salivary glucose for effective, long‐term whitening. The dentin structures remain non‐destructive due to the low concentration of ROS, demonstrating excellent cell ...
