Effect of Occlusal Adjustment and Subsequent Repolishing on the Translucency Parameter, Contact Angle, and Flexural Strength of Different Types of Glazed Monolithic Zirconia

Journal of Esthetic and Restorative Dentistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives This study evaluated the effects of material and surface condition (glazed vs. polished after simulated occlusal adjustment) on translucency parameter, contact angle, and flexural strength of four monolithic zirconia. Materials and Methods Disk‐shaped specimens (n = 80, Ø12 × 1 mm) were fabricated from four monolithic zirconia ...

Bond strength enhancement for additively manufactured zirconia: Micro‐retentive design approach

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the effect of digitally designed micro‐retention features on the bond strength of additively manufactured (AM) zirconia copings. Materials and Methods Sixty titanium base abutments (NobelParallel, NobelBiocare), pretreated with 50 µm alumina particles were divided into four groups (n = 15 per group); one group with ...

Hydraulic fast‐setting calcium silicate cement for crown cementation

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study evaluated film thickness, diametral tensile strength (DTS), and crown retentive strength of hydraulic fast‐set calcium silicate cement (fast‐set CSC) compared to conventional luting cements. Materials and Methods Fast‐set CSC was compared to zinc phosphate cement and glass ionomer cement.

Wheat Yield Response to Organic Fertilisers Depends on Drought Timing in a Sandy Soil

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Organic fertilisers enhance crop drought resilience by improving nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) use efficiency and soil‐plant water relations. However, the underlying mechanisms governing their effects across different drought timings in wheat under sandy soils remain unclear.

Degradation and Restoration of Anthrosols in the Amazonia Under Contrasting Agricultural Practices: Evidence From the Assessment of Soil Physical Quality and Carbon and Nitrogen Stocks

Journal of Sustainable Agriculture and Environment, Volume 5, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study was conducted to assess the impact of different agricultural practices on the physical quality and the carbon and nitrogen stocks of anthropogenic soils used by smallholder farmers in Central Amazonia, Brazil. Undisturbed and disturbed soil samples were collected at three depths (0–0.10 m, 0.10–0.20 m, and 0.20–0.30 m), with five ...

Laser Ablation Sampling With Low‐Power Plasma: A LA‐MIP‐MS Instrument for Spaceflight

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 3, 15 February 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is a commonly used ion source for mass spectrometry‐based chemical analysis of a wide range of materials. Traditional ICP ion sources use high power (> 1000 W) and significant gas flow (> 10 L/min), rendering them unsuitable for spaceflight, as they are too resource‐intensive for planetary spacecraft.

Coupled Ferroelectric–Photoelectrochemical in Water Reduction Over BiFeO3 Thin Film Heterostructure Modulated by Rare‐Earth Doping

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 11, 5 February 2026.
Gd‐doped BFO (BGFO) exhibits a ∼2‐order reduction in leakage current owing to its lowest content of oxygen vacancies. This leads to a ∼2.5‐fold increase in remnant polarization. These improvements in BGFO effectively boost charge separation and transportation, resulting in the greatest incident photon‐to‐current efficiency of 12.9 ± 0.73% and a ∼1.5 ...

Microstructural Insights Into LATP Ceramic Nanofibers for High‐Performance Quasi‐Solid‐State Batteries

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
A sustainable electrospinning technique produces LATP ceramic nanofibers that form continuous Li⁺‐conductive pathways within composite solid electrolytes. The resulting quasi‐solid‐state batteries combine the strength of ceramic nanofibers with the flexibility of polymers, delivering high critical current density and excellent rate performance at room ...

Development and Testing of a Low‐Cost Soil Moisture Sensor for Real‐Time Irrigation Scheduling

Irrigation and Drainage, Volume 75, Issue 1, Page 173-187, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Effective irrigation scheduling is essential for improved water management in irrigated areas, with soil moisture monitoring recognized as one of the most effective methods. However, challenges such as the high cost of sensors and the difficulties in monitoring large areas hinder their practical application, particularly for smallholder ...

Assessing the Long‐Term Aqueous Durability and Structural Stability of Pyrochlore (Gd2Ti2O7) and Glass‐Pyrochlore (Fe‐Al‐BG‐Gd2Ti2O7) Composite Materials

Surface and Interface Analysis, Volume 58, Issue 2, Page 71-88, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Understanding the corrosion behavior of glass–ceramic composite materials such as Fe‐Al‐BG‐Gd2Ti2O7 as potential nuclear wasteform candidates has attracted considerable attention due to their high loading of actinide elements and fission products compared to current borosilicate glass nuclear wasteforms.
