Infiltration by Streptococcus mutans in provisional crowns fixed by two types of cementing agents – pilot double-blind randomized clinical trial [PDF]
Objective: When provisional acrylic crowns are used for a long time, they become more susceptible to marginal leakage by cariogenic bacteria. The objectives of this pilot clinical study were to compare cement based on zinc oxide-eugenol and calcium ...

The physics of cement cohesion [PDF]
Cement is one of the most produced materials in the world. A major player in greenhouse gas emissions, it is the main binding agent in concrete, to which it provides a cohesive strength that rapidly increases during setting. Understanding how such cohesion emerges has been a major obstacle to advances in cement science and technology.

Well Cement Degradation and Wellbore Integrity in Geological CO2 Storages: A Literature Review [PDF]
Carbon capture and storage (CCS) has emerged as the most effective method to curb the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere. It can store up to 5 billion tons of CO2 per year. To guarantee a safe and economical geological storage, the well cement degradation and wellbore integrity need to be studied thoroughly.

Rheological Analysis and Evaluation of Measurement Techniques for the Curing Polymethylmethacrylate Bone Cement in Vertebroplasty [PDF]
Vertebroplasty is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat vertebral fractures, which conventionally involves injecting polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement into the fractured vertebra. A common risk associated with vertebroplasty is cement leaking out of the vertebra during the injection, which may occur due to a lack of ...

Structural Performance of Laterite soil Stabilised with Cement and Blue Gum (Eucalyptus Globulus) Wood Ash for Use as a Road base Material [PDF]
This study examines the effect of partially replacing cement with blue gumwood ash (BGWA) in stabilizing laterite soil to be used as a potential road base material. Initially, Ordinary Portland Cement was introduced to the soil at varying contents from 0 to 12% in steps of 3% by weight of the soil sample.
