An In Vitro Study to Examine the Comparative Accuracy and Stability of Elastomeric Impression Materials under Different Levels of Hydration [PDF]
Dental Journal of Advance StudiesIntroduction: For cast restorations, elastic impression materials are used for making negative replica of teeth and associated structures. A positive replica is then formed in the shape of a cast, which should be an exact form of the prepared tooth.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.MagPiezo enables wireless activation of endogenous Piezo1 channels without genetic modification using 19 nm magnetic nanoparticles and low‐intensity magnetic fields. It generates torque forces at the piconewton scale to trigger mechanotransduction in endothelial cells, standing as a novel platform to interrogate and manipulate Piezo1 activity in vitro.

Reversible Dynamic Behavior of Condensation‐Cured Silicone Elastomers Caused by a Catalyst
Macromolecular Materials and Engineering, 2023 This study demonstrates that dibutyltin‐dilaurate (DBTL), commonly used to catalyze condensation‐cured silicone elastomers, causes dynamic behavior in the silicone network, which is attributed to the catalyst finding a way to become part of the elastomer

Shape‐Changing Multiphase Microparticles from Complex Liquid Crystal Emulsions
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Liquid crystalline network (LCN) microparticles are prepared from single, double (Janus), and triple emulsions through a simple and scalable bulk‐emulsification strategy. Under heating, the particles exhibit robust, reversible, large‐amplitude deformations that depend both on the morphology and the liquid crystals director field configuration.
