Surface Chemical Composition of Diatoms [PDF]
AbstractAmong diatoms, Phaeodactylum tricornutum is a peculiar species that exists in three morphotypes with distinct cell wall structures and low silica content. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis was performed on P. tricornutum and compared with diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana; the results provide new information on the chemical ...

The Surface Roughness and Gloss of Composites [PDF]
The contrast gloss and the average roughness were measured for four commercial composite filling materials. Using a factorial design, each material was subjected to four available finishing methods. A significant difference was found in the contrast gloss among finishing methods, and a significant linear regression is given which relates the inverse of
