Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2014.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Surface seals are widely used in South Africa. There are a number of reasons which include affordability, versatility and durability. There are, however, in some cases problems with stone loss that can lead to a shortened lifespan of the pavement. The loss of aggregate chippings in surface seals poses a major problem in the seal pavement industry. This study aims to identify the influencing factors that lead to these adhesive failures as well as to find optimum combinations of binders and aggregates at various conditions. Various binders commonly used in South African surface seal construction will be tested using the Bitumen Bond Strength (BBS) test method. The binders used in the study include 80/100 penetration grade bitumen, elastomer modified bitumen, bitumen rubber, elastomer modified emulsion and cationic rapid setting emulsion. Aggregates used in the study include dolerite, granite and quartzite. The test samples were cured and tested at two temperatures, 15 °C and 35 °C. The samples were also cured for 2, 6 and 24 hours respectively. The study tackles a wide range of variables in order to obtain a good understanding of adhesion properties of surface seals used in South Africa. Tests were repeated at least once to ensure repeatability and in some cases up to four repeats were performed. The loading rate at which the tests were performed had a significant influence on the BBS results. This rate varied which complicated the process of comparing the results. It was therefore decided to unify the loading rates. The BBS results exposed the difference between hot applied binders and emulsions. The former having significant stronger adhesion properties. It was also confirmed by the results that temperature plays a key role in the BBS results due to the visco-elastic properties of bitumen. These influences will be discussed along with others such as aggregate types and curing times. The type of failure is also discussed. Failure can either be adhesive or cohesive, the former being a failure between the aggregate and the binder while the later refers to a failure in the binder itself. The results of other students will also be discussed and compared to the results of this study. These include results of predecessors that tested emulsions as well as results from tests done on fractured aggregate surfaces and precoated aggregates. This study showed very similar results as these from other students, except for tests done with emulsions. It was discovered that the method of curing of the emulsions must be adapted to ensure proper curing of the emulsions. It was found that aggregates did not influence the BBS properties to the same extent as temperature and binder application type. The BBS results of hot applied binders also did not significantly increase as the curing time increased, but the results of emulsions showed some increase. However, the emulsions needed more time to cure properly.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Oppervlak seëls word algemeen gebruik in Suid-Afrika. Daar is verskeie redes hiervoor waaronder bekostigbaarheid,veelsydigheid en duursaamheid. Daar is egter in sommige gevalle probleme met klipverlies wat kan lei tot n verkorte leeftyd. Hierdie klipverlies ontstaan as gevolg van verskeie redes of kombinasies daarvan. Die studie beoog om hierdie faktore wat die adhesie eienskappe beïnvloed te identifiseer sowel as om optimum kobinasies van bindmiddels en klipsoorte te bewerkstellig by verkeie kondisies. ‘n Verskeidenheid van bindmiddels wat algemeen in Suid-Afrika gebruik word, word in die studie getoets met die Bitumen Bond Sterkte (BBS) toets metode. Die bindmiddels wat in die studie gebruik word sluit 80/100 penetrasie graad bitumen, elastomeer gemodifiseerde bitumen, bitumen rubber, elastomeer gemodifiseerde emulsie en kationiese snel settende emulsie. Die klipsoorte wat vir die studie gebruikword is doleriet, graniet en kwartsiet. Hierdie gesteentes word algemeen in die praktyk gebruik. Die toets monsters word ook by twee temperature gekuur en getoets. Hierdie temperature is 15 °C en 35 °C. Die toets monsters word ook onderskeidelik vir 2, 6 en 24 uur gekuur. Die studie ondersoek 'n wye verskeidenheid van veranderlikes om sodoende 'n goeie begrip van adhesie eienskappe van die oppervlak seëls wat in Suid-Afrika gebruik word te verkry. Elke toets was ten minste een maal herhaal om herhaalbaarheid te verseker. Sommige toetse was tot 4 keer herhaal. Die belasting tempo van die toetse het ‘n beduidende uitwerking op die BBS resultate as gevolg van die visko-elastiese eienskappe van bitumen. Hierdie tempo het gewissel en dit moeilik gemaak om die resultate te vergelyk. Daarom was daar besluit om die tempo van die toetse te verander na ‘n gelykvormige tempo. Daar was ‘n duidelike verskil in BBS resultate van die warm toegepaste bindmiddels en die emulsies. Die warm bindmiddels het baie hoër BBS resultate gelwer. Dit was ook bevestig in die resultate dat temperatuur ‘n beduidende rol speel in die BBS. Hierdie invloede sal bespreek word tesame met ander, soos klipsoorte en kuring tye. Die tipe versaking word ook bespreek. Versaking kan plaasvind as gevolg van adhesie of cohesie, waar adhesie versaking 'n versaking is tussen die klip en die bindmiddel terwyl cohesie versaking verwys na 'n versaking in die bindmiddel self. Die uitslae van die ander studente sal ook bespreek word en vergelyking word met die resultate van hierdie studie. Dit sluit die resultate van voorgangers in wat emulsies getoets het sowel as die resultate van toetse wat gedoen is op gebreekte klipoppervlaktes en bitumen behandelde klippe. Hierdie studie het baie soortgelyke resultate getoon as dié van ander studente, behalwe vir die toetse wat gedoen was met emulsies. Daar is vasgestel dat die metode van kuring van die emulsies moet aangepas word om behoorlike kuring van die emulsies te verseker. Daar is ook gevind dat klipsoorte nie die BBS eienskappe in dieselfde mate as temperatuur en bindmiddel toepassingstipe beïnvloed het nie. Die BBS resultate van warm aangewende bindmiddels het ook nie aansienlik verhoog soos die kuringstyd toegeneem het nie, maar die resultate van emulsies het wel 'n toename getoon. Die emulsies het wel meer tyd nodig gehad om behoorlik te kuur.

Full textAbstract:
The bond performance and surface energy of hygro-thermal compression densified wood were studied using comparisons to hygro-thermally treated and control yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera).
Bond performance was studied using opening mode double cantilever beam fracture testing and cyclic boiling of one half of all fracture samples. Phenol formaldehyde film (PF-film) and polymeric diphenylmethane diisocyanate (pMDI) were the two different adhesives used to bond fracture samples. Hygro-thermal samples bonded with PF-film had significantly higher fracture toughness than control samples, while no difference was found for densified samples. Densified samples bonded with pMDI had significantly higher fracture toughness than control samples while no change was seen for hygro-thermal samples. Boil cycling reduced fracture toughness of hygro-thermal fracture samples only, irrespective of adhesive type.
Surface energy was studied using sessile drop contact angle measurement and the Chang model of acid-base, surface energy component calculation. Water, glycerol, formamide, ethylene glycol, and -Bromonapthalene were used as probe liquids. Densified and hygro-thermally treated yellow-poplar had significantly higher contact angles than control samples. The contact angle trends for densified and hygro-thermally treated wood were found to be the same. Total surface energy as well as the polar and acid components of surface energy decreased with hygro-thermal treatment. The dispersive and base components of surface energy increased with hygro-thermal treatment.Master of Science

Full textAbstract:
The Near Surface Mounted (NSM) strengthening is an emerging retrofitting technique, which involves bonding Fibre Reinforced Polymer (FRP) reinforcement into grooves cut along the surface of a concrete member to be strengthened. This technique offers many advantages over external bonding of FRP reinforcement, for example, an increased bond capacity, protection from external damage and the possibility of anchoring into adjacent concrete members. To date, significant research has been conducted into the NSM FRP strengthening technique. However, there are still some areas which need further research in order to fully characterise bond and anchorage of NSM FRP bars. Lack of experimental data, design tools and analytical models addressing these areas create obstacles for the efficient use of these advanced polymer materials. The particular objectives of the research are; to investigate bond behaviour between NSM FRP bars and concrete, to understand the critical failure modes involved and their mechanics, and to develop a rational analytical model to predict bond strength and anchorage length requirements for NSM FRP bars. Several significant variables affecting bond, such as bond length, size, shape and type of bar, resin type, groove dimensions and concrete strength, have been considered. In particular, attention has been focussed on the effect of bar shape on bond behaviour. A comprehensive set of laboratory testing and their results, including the effect of the investigated parameters are presented. Various modes of anchorage failure of NSM FRP bars are identified and the underlying mechanics are investigated. Analytical models are developed to predict bond capacity and anchorage length requirements of NSM FRP bars, and are verified with experimental results.

Full textAbstract:
Concrete structures, in particular reinforced concrete structures, have been designed and built for many years. Many previously built structures are now being compromised with regard to their condition and structural integrity. There has developed a need to maintain these structures and protect them in order to protect the users and minimise the expenses associated with repair and maintenance. Instead of resorting to demolishing and rebuilding, engineers are becoming increasingly capable of restoring and enhancing existing structures in order to maximise the original structures lifespan. One of the ways in which this is achieved is through the implementation of various repair and maintenance strategies. These strategies can range from cathodic protection of the steel reinforcement to increasing concrete cover of the section. The easiest and often most commonly used method, although often not effective when used on its own, is to coat the concrete surface with a decorative or protective coating. There are many coatings available, ranging from simple to complex formulations of inorganic and/or organic materials. These coatings each perform a unique function and will often be designed to combat a specific problem which the structure is exposed to. The formulation of the coatings are almost always designed correctly when they are manufactured, however, premature bond failure due to poor substrate surface preparation and various substrate moisture conditions still seem to occur after coating application. This investigation will give insight into the effects a sound, clean and profiled concrete substrate that is subjected to different moisture conditions will have on the bond strength achieved when using cementitious based coatings. The reason for differing the moisture conditions of the substrate is that often on site the moisture condition of an existing substrate is not known prior to application of the coating. Through this investigation, epoxy modified cementitious coatings have been shown to provide an acceptable bond strength. In some cases, failure within the coating instead of the acceptable failure within the substrate has resulted, due only to the level of dryness of the substrate. A thorough investigation on the theory behind surface coatings, their properties and performance requirements was done and subsequently followed by a detailed experimental programme that was performed and analysed to provide insight to the said coating behaviour.

Full textAbstract:
Reinforced concrete is a wide field for researches and studies in civil engineering subject. It is due to the fact that reinforced concrete is the most widely used material for the infrastructure in the world. Reinforced concrete consists of two main materials: reinforcing steel and concrete, each of those two materials has its own effect on the performance of the structure. In this thesis, the change in RC performance due to different steel properties and specifications will be investigated. The study focuses on the bond interaction between steel and concrete and the flexural behaviour of RC beams. Pull-out forces have been exerted on the reinforcing bars in RC blocks to examine the impact of steel properties on the bond strength and failure mode of the blocks. In addition to that, flexural tests have been conducted on simply supported RC beams to investigate how reinforcement properties can affect the ductility of reinforced concrete. Comparison of results of the previous two tests with codes and analytical models have been carried out to verify the outcome of this research.

Full textAbstract:
Lightweight ceramic armour is desirable to reduce mass of armoured vehicles. Alumina and silicon carbide are the two most frequently used ceramics and they are incorporated into the system using adhesive bonding technology, which historically has proved problematic. Thus, in this work, a range of surface treatments have been investigated with the aim of increasing the strength of the bond between alumina or' silicon carbide and a toughened epoxy adhesive, in ballistic applications. Three surface conditions for each ceramic have been characterised; as-fired and laser processed samples as well as grit blasted alumina and retired silicon carbide. Physical and chemical changes to the surface were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, profilometry, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and the sessile drop technique. After grit blasting alumina it was found that the surface had been contaminated. For silicon carbide it was observed after refiring that the surface was oxidised. It was found after laser processing alumina and silicon carbide that the treated surfaces had a greater concentration of hydroxyl groups and for the silicon carbide surface it . was found also to have been oxidised. These chemical changes were tentatively linked to the improved wettability and more specifically, the increased polar component of the surface energy. These surfaces demonstrated the greatest improvements in bond strength in comparison to the as-fired, grit blasted and refired samples. Ballistic tests were performed on a range of processed alumina and silicon carbide . tiles. The results were consistent with the predictions made on the basis of the quasi-static testing, in that the damage to the laser processed tiles resulted in less debonding and hence better ballistic performance than the control samples. Thus, this study has shown that the laser processing of the ceramic surface has the potential to improve the performance of ceramic armour systems.

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: An optimal orthodontic bonding system must minimize damage to the enamel during conditioning, have enough bond strength to prevent bracket de-bonding during treatment, and allow bracket removal at treatment completion, such that minimal damage is inflicted to the tooth.1 Pumice followed by acid etching has been the standard for many years; however, Groman Inc. (Margate, FL, USA) has stated that using their air-abrasion product will result in a tripling of bond strength. This method claims a three-fold increase in bond strength compared to traditional acid etching techniques by substituting air-abrasion using the EtchMaster® (Groman Inc., Margate, FL) 50 μm aluminum oxide in place of pumice prophy prior to acid etching. The purpose of this study is to see if this combination does in fact triple shear bond strength, and if so, what impact it has on the residual enamel surface after bracket removal, or de-bonding. Methods: Ninety recently extracted bovine incisors were randomly divided into three groups. Each of the three groups underwent different conditioning methods prior to bracket bonding. Group A: pumice + acid etch (N=30), Group B: air-abrasion + acid etch (N=30), and Group C: air-abrasion only (N=30). Enamel surface conditions were characterized using a Quanta 200 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) (FEI, Hillsboro, OR) and a SZX7 Stereomicroscope System (Olympus, Center Valley, PA). American Orthodontics Master Series System twin MBT mandibular incisor brackets (Sheboygan, WI, USA) were then bonded to each tooth. Following bonding, teeth were stored for twenty-four hours in water at 37°C +/- 2°C. All groups then underwent thermocycling of five hundred cycles in water baths set at five and fifty-five degrees Celsius. Next, the samples were mounted in dental stone and brackets de-bonded using a universal testing machine (Instron, Canton, MA) to obtain shear bond strength (SBS) values. SEM and optical stereomicroscopy were again utilized to evaluate the enamel surface and determine the adhesive remnant index (ARI) was score of each specimen. Results: The mean of Group A (pumice + acid etch) was 21.52 MPa with a standard deviation of 4.97 MPa. The mean of Group B (air-abrasion + acid etch) was 21.83 MPa with a standard deviation of 7.55 Mpa. The mean of Group C (air-abrasion only) was 8.12 MPa with a standard deviation of 3.05 MPa. Analysis of variance showed a main effect of Group on MPa, F(2, 87) = 60.66, p < 0.001, ηp2= 0.58. Post-hoc analyses using Tukey’s HSD indicated that SBS values were higher for teeth in Group A than for those in Group C (p < 0.001), teeth in Group B had higher SBS values than those in Group C (p < 0.001), but no difference was found for SBS between teeth in Group A and Group B (p =0.981). Results from the Fisher’s Exact test, where we controlled the Type I error using a Bonferroni correction, reveals that ARI scores differed by group (p < 0.001). Stereomicroscope images at 38.75x magnification obtained following enamel conditioning show Groups A (P+AE) and B (AA+AE) are almost indistinguishable; however, Group C (AA) has visual differences. Group C had a speckled reflective property that appeared to be residual aluminum oxide particles. Following de-bond, stereomicroscopic and SEM images showed no enamel defects on the tooth. Conclusions: SBS was not significantly different between Group A (pumice + acid etch) and Group B (air-abrasion + acid etch). SBS was significantly different between Groups A and B, and Group C (air-abrasion only). This means there is not a three-fold increase in SBS when using air-abrasion and acid etch, when compared to pumice and acid etch, as claimed by the manufacturer of the air-abrasion unit used in this study. Additionally, the air-abrasion only group displayed a significantly lower SBS than Group A and B. Air-abrasion only is not a suitable enamel preparation method for orthodontic bonding. Images obtained from the stereomicroscope and SEM reveal no observational damage to the enamel surface topography after de-bonding for any group.

Hydrogen bonds are arguably the most important reversible intermolecular forces. However, surprisingly few studies of their fundamental nature at the gas-surface interface have been performed. Our research investigated sulfur mustard (HD) adsorption by characterizing interfacial hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces for the simulant molecules 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES) and methyl salicylate on well-characterized hydroxyl-functionalized surfaces (silica and UiO-66). Our approach utilized infrared spectroscopy to study specific surface-molecule interactions and temperature-programmed desorption to measure activation energies of desorption. 2-CEES has two polar functional groups, the chloro and thioether moieties, available to accept hydrogen bonds from free surface silanol groups. Diethyl sulfide and chlorobutane were investigated to independently assess the roles of the chloro and thioester moieties in the overall adsorption mechanism and to explore the interplay between the charge transfer and electrostatic contributions to total hydrogen bond strength. The results indicate that both SiOH---Cl and SiOH---S hydrogen bonds form when 2-CEES adsorbs to silica or hydroxylated UiO-66. However, a more stable configuration in which both polar groups interact simultaneously with adjacent silanol groups likely does not form. A systemaic study of chloroalkanes revealed that dispersion forces involving the methylene units in 2-CEES contribute to nearly half of the total activation energy for desorption from silica. Methyl salicylate possesses aromatic, hydroxyl, and ester functional groups, each of which is a potential hydrogen bond acceptor. We found that uptake on silica is mainly driven by the formation of carbonyl-silanol and hydroxyl-silanol hydrogen bonds with additional contributions from weaker interactions. In an effort to learn more about the SiOH---π bond, the adsorption of simple substituted benzene derivatives on silica was investigated to probe the effects of electron withdrawing and donating substituents. Results indicate that the substituted benzene derivatives adsorb to silica via a cooperative effect involving SiOH---π hydrogen bonds and additional substituent-surface interactions. The strength of the SiOH---π bond is enhanced by electron donating groups and weakened by electron withdrawing groups.Ph. D.

Full textAbstract:
Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) have been widely used in gas turbine engines to protect the underlying metal from high operating temperature so as to improve the durability of the components and enhance the engine efficiency. However, since the TBCs always operate in a demanding high-temperature environment of aircraft and industrial gas-turbine engines, a better understanding of this complex system is required to improve the durability and reliability. The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of surface modification for the NiCoCrAlY bond coats on the thermal cycling lifetime and failure characteristics of TBCs. Parameters of modification for the bond coats included as-sprayed, barrel-finished, hand-polished and pre-oxidation heat treatment at 1100[degrees]C in P=10O2-8 atm up to 4 hours, carried out prior to the electron beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) of ZrO2-7wt% Y2O3 (7YSZ) ceramic topcoat. The resulting characteristics of the bond coat and the thermally grown oxide (TGO) scale were initially documented by surface roughness, phase constituents of the TGO scale, and residual stress of the TGO scale. The thermal cycling test consisted of 10-minute heat-up to 1121°C, 40-minute hold at 1121°C, and 10-minute forced air-quench. As-coated and thermally-cycled TBCs were characterized by optical profilometry (OPM), photo-stimulated luminescence spectroscopy (PSLS), optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and scanning/transmission electron microscopy (TEM/STEM) equipped with high angle annular dark field (HAADF) and X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy (XEDS). TBC specimens for TEM/STEM analysis were prepared by focused ion beam (FIB) in-situ lift-out (INLO) technique. Superior thermal cycling lifetime was observed for TBCs with as-sprayed bond coats regardless of pre-oxidation heat treatment, and TBCs with hand-polished bond coats only after pre-oxidation heat treatment. With pre-oxidation heat treatment, relative photostimulated luminescence intensity of the equilibrium α-Al2O3 increased. Thus, the improvement in TBC lifetime can be correlated with an increase in the amount of α-Al2O3 in the TGO scale, given a specific surface modification/roughness. The lifetime improvement due to pre-oxidation was particularly significant to TBCs with smooth hand-polished bond coats and negligible for TBCs with rough as-sprayed bond coats. Spallation-fracture paths depended on the lifetime of TBCs. Premature spallation of TBCs occurred at the interface between the YSZ and TGO. Longer durability can be achieved by restricting the fracture paths to the TGO/bond coat interface. Small particulate phase observed through the TGO scale was identified as Y2O3 (cubic) by diffraction analysis on TEM. While small addition of Y in the NiCoCrAlY bond coat helps the adhesion of the TGO scale, excessive alloying can lead to deleterious effects.M.S.

Full textAbstract:
La capacité de déformation améliorée et la résistance à la fissuration par retrait rendent les composites cimentaire caoutchoutés adaptés aux applications de grande surface telles que les chaussées et les rechargements minces adhérents à base cimentaire. Cependant, le défaut d'adhérence entre les agrégats de caoutchouc et la matrice cimentaire, bien connu, demeure nuisible aux propriétés mécaniques et de transferts de ces matériaux. De plus, en raison de la faible rigidité des granulats caoutchouc, il est universellement accepté une réduction de certaines propriétés mécaniques des composites caoutchoutés à base de ciment. Néanmoins, leurs propriétés de transfert pourraient être compétitives avec le mortier à base de granulats naturels si la liaison à l'interface caoutchouc-ciment est améliorée. Afin d'améliorer l'interface, les granulats caoutchouc ont d'abord été revêtus d'un copolymère styrène-butadiène et après densification complète de ce copolymère à la surface des agrégats caoutchouc, ils ont été incorporés au mélange cimentaire. Dans un premier temps, une analyse microstructurale utilisant la microscopie électronique à balayage (MEB), la spectrométrie de rayons X à dispersion d'énergie (EDS) et la diffraction des rayons X (DRX) a permis de préciser que la pâte de ciment adhérait fermement aux granulats caoutchouc revêtus de copolymère. Dans un second temps, les propriétés mécaniques et de transfert de ce mortier ont ensuite été comparées à celles du mortier témoin (granulats naturels) et de deux autres mortiers caoutchoutés dans lesquels l'un d'entre eux a été ajouté un désentraineur d'air pour produire un mélange caoutchouté ayant la même teneur en air que le mortier témoin. Les résultats ont démontré une interface améliorée du caoutchouc-ciment fournissant une amélioration significative des propriétés de transfert telles que la perméabilité à l'air et l'absorption capillaire d'eau. Cependant, la diminution des propriétés mécaniques (résistance à la compression et module d'élasticité) demeure en raison de la faible rigidité des granulats caoutchouc. Quant à la résistance à la traction et la résistance résiduelle post-pic témoignent d'une énergie de rupture plus élevées dans le cas de granulats revêtus du copolymère, démontrant un effet de pontage amélioré rendu possible par la liaison entre les granulats caoutchouc et la matrice de ciment. Cet effet de pontage a également contribué à améliorer la résistance des composites caoutchoutés à la fissuration par retrait empêché Afin d'étayer les effets d'une interface caoutchouc-ciment améliorée, la durabilité des mortiers caoutchoutés dans des environnements agressifs a été étudiée. En ce qui concerne l'attaque à l'acide acétique, une faible profondeur dégradée et une réduction de la perte de masse et de résistance à la compression des mortiers caoutchoutés revêtus de copolymère ont été observés par rapport au mortier témoin. Le mortier caoutchouté enduit de copolymère se comporte également mieux en empêchant la diffusion du sulfate de sodium dans le composite. La dégradation des mortiers dans des environnements agressifs a également été évaluée sur la base d'une variable d'endommagement. Il en ressort que les matériaux caoutchoutés revêtus de copolymère étaient plus durables que les matériaux non traités exposés à des environnements agressifsProperties of improved strain capacity and high shrinkage cracking resistance make rubberized cement-based composites suitable for large surface applications such as cement-based pavements and thin bonded overlays. However, bond defect between rubber aggregates (RA) and cement matrix is well-known and detrimental to properties of rubberized cement-based materials. It is universally accepted a reduction in some mechanical properties of rubberized cement-based composites mainly due to low stiffness of RA. Nevertheless, their transfer properties could indeed be competitive with control mortar (without RA) if bond at rubber-cement matrix interface is improved. In order to enhance the interface, RA were firstly coated with styrene-butadiene copolymer and after complete densification of this copolymer on surface of RA, they were mixed with the pre-mixed cementitious mixture. Microstructural analysis using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry (EDS), and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) clarified that cement paste bonded firmly on copolymer-coated RA. Mechanical and transfer properties of this mortar were then compared to that of control mortar and two rubberized mortars in which one of them air-detraining admixture was added to produce rubberized mixture with the similar air content as the control mortar. Findings have demonstrated an enhanced rubber-cement matrix interface provided a significant improvement on transfer properties such as air permeability and water capillary absorption. However, a reduction in mechanical properties (compressive strength and modulus of elasticity) was still observed due to low stiffness of RA. Rubber coating appeared to limit the reduction in tensile strength and to result in a higher residual post-peak strength and fracture energy, demonstrating an improved material bridging effect made possible by the bond between RA and cement matrix. The bridging effect also contributed to improve resistance of rubberized composites to shrinkage cracking even under high restrained conditions. Based on above-mentioned characteristics, the study further investigated the durability of rubberized mortars under aggressive environments to observe the effects of RA incorporation and of an enhanced rubber-cement matrix interface. Regarding acetic acid attack, a low degraded depth and a reduction in loss of both mass and compressive strength of rubberized mortars, especially the one incorporating copolymer-coated RA, were observed compared to the ones of the control mortar. The coated rubberized mortar also behaves better in preventing sodium sulfate diffusion into the composite. The degradation of mortars under aggressive environments was also evaluated based on a damage variable, which was defined as a relative change in equivalent load-resisting area of mortar specimens between their original condition and at a given time when they were exposed to acid or sulfate solutions. From damage variable values, it can be concluded that coated rubberized mortar was more durable than the untreated one against aggressive environments. The durability of untreated and coated rubberized mortars under freeze-thaw cycles was also carried out and compared to that of control mortar. The rubberized cement- based composites were more resistant to freezing and thawing than the control one, especially in terms of dimensional expansion. The better performance can be attributed to high energy absorption of RA and to higher porosity, lower water capillary absorption and high strain capacity of rubberized mortars. Rubber coating, even reducing the permeability of rubberized cement-based composites, still remained high durability of their applications under frost environment

Full textAbstract:
Valve stem seal leakage is a major source of fugitive emissions, and controlling these emissions can result in added expense in leak detection and repair programs. Elastomeric O-rings can be used as valve stem seals, and O-ring manufacturers recommend lubrication of elastomeric seals to prevent damage and to assure proper sealing. In this research, a metallic coating was applied as a lubricant using a vacuum vapor deposition process to the surface of elastomeric valve stem seals. Valve stem leak measurements were taken to determine if the coated O-rings, alone or with the recommended lubrication, reduced valve stem seal leakage. This research determined that the metallic coating did not reduce valve stem leakage.

Full textAbstract:
This body of research investigated the bonding efficiency of self-etching primer adhesives to enamel and dentine with various surface characteristics. A series of preliminary experiments was carried out to determine the effect of operator experience, dentine tubule orientation, bond strength test method and resin composite material used on bond strengths. The results of the preliminary tests concluded that it is essential to develop skills in material handling and the test methods used; 2-step self-etching primer adhesives exhibit higher but more variable microshear bond strengths (µSBS) than ‘all-in-one’ adhesives on dentine at different depths and tubule orientations; fracture toughness and bond strength test results suggest that the fracture toughness of a resin composite may not be of significant influence on microtensile and µSBS tests outcomes for nano-filled hybrid materials.An investigation of the bonding ability of self-etching primer adhesives under various tooth preparation conditions was carried out. Enamel and dentine specimens were prepared from human teeth and finished with various rotary cutting instruments and the erbium, chromium:yttrium, scandium, gallium, garnet laser. Specimens were bonded with two 2-step self-etching primer adhesives and two ‘all-in-one’ adhesives with a resin composite. The results showed that one of the 2-step adhesives exhibited higher but more variable µSBS than the ‘all-in-one’ adhesives and a silorane-based self-etching primer adhesive system to enamel and dentine.
The relationship between enamel microhardness and µSBS was evaluated. Enamel specimens were prepared and finished with one half of the surface tested for hardness using the Vickers test. The other half of the enamel surface was bonded using either a 2-step self-etching primer adhesive or an ‘all-in-one’ adhesive and a hybrid resin composite. Mean Vickers hardness numbers and µSBS for each enamel surface were calculated. Analysis using Pearson’s parametric test for regression analysis evaluated the correlation between Vickers hardness and µSBS. The results revealed a weak negative insignificant correlation between VHN and µSBS for the 2-step adhesive and no correlation for the ‘all-in-one’ adhesive.
The effect of conditioning and casein phosphopeptide-amorphous calcium phosphate (CPP-ACP) on bonding to bleached and unbleached enamel was investigated. Four groups of enamel specimens: untreated control; bleaching with 16% carbamide peroxide gel for 90 min daily x 14 days; treated with CPP-ACP paste (Tooth Mousse, GC Corp., Japan) for 60 min daily x 7 days and bleached and CPP-ACP-treated were used. The specimens were divided into a further two groups and bonded with a total-etch adhesive or a 2-step self-etching primer adhesive. Specimens bonded with the self-etching primer adhesive were sub-divided into four conditioning subgroups before bonding: no conditioning; 30 – 40% phosphoric; 15% EDTA; 20% polyacrylic acid. Specimens were tested in shear mode until failure and analysed by 2-way ANOVA, one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-hoc test. The µSBS of the total-etch adhesive was not affected by enamel treatment. Bleaching reduced the µSBS of the self-etching primer adhesive but preconditioning with phosphoric acid and polyacrylic acid improved bond strengths after CPP-ACP application. Bond failure analysis revealed a predominance of adhesive failures after bleaching, but prior conditioning reduced the proportion of adhesive failures. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the interfacial morphology produced by the 2-step self-etching primer adhesive was independent of enamel treatment except after bleaching. Phosphoric acid etching was not inhibited by CPP-ACP treatment. Resin tag formation was observed with prior phosphoric acid and polyacrylic acid conditioning.
The effect of conditioning and CPP-ACP application on dentine bonding was also investigated. Dentine specimens with and without the smear layer were prepared and divided into a further two groups, CPP-ACP paste applied to one group for 60 min daily x 7 days and the other group was untreated. The two groups were divided into three subgroups for conditioning: no conditioning; 30 - 40% phosphoric acid; 20% polyacrylic acid. The dentine was bonded using a 2-step self-etching primer adhesive and an ‘all-in-one’ adhesive, and tested as previously described. Statistical analysis was carried out using one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s post-hoc test at α = 0.05. The results showed that the µSBS of both adhesives were not significantly affected on smear-covered dentine but was affected on smearless dentine. Conditioning did not improve bond strengths. Bond failure analysis showed more adhesive failures for the ‘all-in-one’ adhesive, particularly on smearless dentine and with prior polyacrylic acid conditioning. SEM revealed a similar morphology of the bonded interface for the 2-step self-etching primer adhesive regardless of conditioning; and areas of bond failures for the ‘all-in-one’ adhesive.
The 2-step self-etching primer adhesives exhibited higher bond strength and more regular bond integrity than the ‘all-in-one’ adhesives, as shown on the SEM observations. However, the ‘all-in-one’ adhesives exhibited less variability in bond strengths to tooth surface characteristics.

Full textAbstract:
The effect of different surface conditioning procedures on bracket bond strength to lithium disilicate ceramic were investigated after 30 min, 24 h and 6 months of water storage. Brackets were bonded to 300 IPS e.max samples (Ivoclar Vivadent). Five surface conditioning procedures were tested: 15 seconds 37% H₃PO₄; 20 seconds 9.5% hydrofluoric acid (HF); 60 seconds 9.5% HF; 60 seconds 9.5% HF plus a low-viscosity enamel bonding agent; 20 seconds non-thermal plasma (NTP) only. All samples were further treated with a silane coupling agent prior to bonding with an orthodontic resin cement and were stored in distilled water at 37°C for 30 minutes, 24 hours and 6 months before testing the shear bond strength. Results showed that bond strengths increased from 30 minutes to 24 hours and then decreased at 6 months. At 30 minutes and 24 hours, HF etching for 60 seconds followed by enamel bonding agent exhibited significantly higher bond strength than all other groups. At 6 months, all groups etched with HF exhibited similar bond strengths that were significantly greater than both H₃PO₄ and NTP surface conditioning. Etching with HF resulted in increased adhesive residue on the sample surface after debonding compared to treatment with NTP or H₃PO₄. The results suggest that surface treatment with 20 to 60 second 9.5% HF etching times yields stable bond strengths, as the bond strengths did not significantly reduce after 6 months.Dentistry, Faculty of

Full textAbstract:
Thesis (MScEng)--Stellenbosch University, 2012.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Chip and spray surfacing seals has been widely used in South Africa as the preferred surface treatment for rural roads. The design of these seals has also experienced renewed interest and continuous development in several other countries over the past two decades. In South Africa seals are continually used as increasing attention is given to the periodic maintenance of existing surfaced roads. There is also a significant increase in the use of surfacing seals in North America as the need to develop more energy and resource efficient surfacing options becomes a priority. Despite this growing use of surface seals, the seal design and especially the selection of binder type and grade does not always follow scientific processes. Seals are often designed based on client preference, previous experience, material availability and industry trends. With an ageing road network and limited funding to ensure timeous maintenance, the focus in South Africa is moving towards more stringent and scientific design processes. The USA and Europe, forced by increasing traffic volumes and heightened performance demands, are moving towards performance- based specification to account for deficiencies in their current surface seal design methods. One of the major failure mechanisms of surface seals is ravelling which takes place when the binder and the aggregate bond becomes weak and are broken by the forces generated by traffic. This leads to loose aggregate on the road which in turns leads to bare surface patches and broken windscreens. To prevent and address this as part of the development of performance-based specifications, the need for a simple and inexpensive technique for evaluating bitumen and bitumen emulsion bond strength development over time, as well as binder-aggregate compatibility, was identified. Although various tests exist for investigating adhesion between bituminous emulsions and aggregate chips most of the tests does not deliver the level of information required by the performance-based specifications. The Bitumen Bond Strength (BBS) test method was therefore developed with the aim to address some of the limitations encountered in evaluating bond strength between binders and aggregates. The BBS test (AASHTO TP-91, 2011) was developed by the University of Wisconsin – Madison (UWM) in partnership with the University of Ancona – Italy (UAI) and the University of Stellenbosch – South Africa (US) specifically for evaluating bond strength between aggregates and hot applied binders and emulsions, respectively. US became involved in BBS test efforts in 2008 to assist in the development and practical evaluation of the BBS test method. UAI contributed significantly to the development of the test apparatus through their work in conjunction with UWM. Due to time and resources available, the involvement of the US was limited to various discussion sessions, a study tour, the evaluation of the BBS test, and conducting a series of control tests. By using the Bitumen Bond Strength test it was possible to evaluate the practicality and repeatability of the developed procedure and the results measured was successfully used to evaluate the bond strength development of modified and unmodified bitumen emulsions on tillite and granite aggregates. It was also possible to correlate the results achieved at the University of Stellenbosch with results from the University of Wisconsin-Madison due to the fact that testing took place at both institutions. The development of the test and the inter-laboratory test results in essence reinforced the hypothesis that the BBS test protocol can be used to effectively evaluate bond strength of different emulsion types and aggregate types. Except for the loading rate which is a known critical influence, the emulsion type and curing intervals are both identified as the most significant other factors contributing to bond strength development. Aggregate type is also identified as a significant factor that will influence the bond strength development. Interactions between emulsion type and curing interval are identified as the most significant interaction. A lot of further validation test on the BBS test method is still required for the test to be integrated into a performance-based specification system for surface seals.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: “Chip and Spray” oppervlak seëls is die verkose seël tipe vir gebruik op Suid Afrikaanse plattelandse paaie. Die ontwerp van hierdie tipe seëls is ook tans besig om hernude aandag te trek in heelwat lande. In Suid Afrika word die tipe seël al meer gebruik soos die behoefte na herseël projeke op die verouderde pad netwerk groei . Daar is ook heelwat groei in die gebruik van “Chip en Spray” seëls in Noord Amerika aangesien daar n behoefte is om n meer energie en materiaal effektiewe seëls te gebruik. Ten spyte van die groeiende gebruik van hierdie seëls het daar min wetenskaplike ontwikkeling plaasgevind in the ontwerp daarvan. Seëls word meestal ontwerp gebaseer op klient voorkeur , ondervinding, materiaal beskikbaarheid en ook industrie norms. ‘n Verouderde pad netwerk dwing die Suid Afrikaanse industrie om meer deeglike en wetenskaplike ontwerp prosedures te volg. Die VSA en Europa word deur vinnig groeiende verkeersvolumes en verhoogte kwaliteits behoeftes gedwing om prestasie gebaseerde spesifikasies te ontwikkel. Een van die hoof defekte op seëls is klipverlies wat plaasvind as die verbinding tussen die bitumen en aggregaat verswak en gebreek word deur die kragte wat deur verkeer oorgedra word. Dit lei tot los klip op die pad wat weer tot skade aan voertuie lei. Om dit te voorkom en aan te spreek het die behoefte laat ontwikkel vir n maklike en goedkoop tegniek om te meet hoe sterk die verbinding is wat ontwikkel tussen verskillende bitumen, bitumen emulsies en aggregaat monsters. Alhoewel daar alreeds toetse bestaan wat kan toets hoe sterk die verbinding is , gee die meeste van die toetse nie die informasie wat benodig word deur die voorgestelde prestasie gedrewe spesfikasies nie. Die “Bitumen Bond Strength” (BBS) toets metode is daarom ontwikkel om die tekortkoming in die toets van die bitumen en aggregaat verdindinge aan te spreek. Die BBS toets (AASHTO TP-91, 2011) is ontwikkel by die Universiteit van Wisconsin – Madison (UWM) in vennootskap met die Universiteit van Ancona – Italy (UAI) en die Universiteit van Stellenbosch (US) , spesifiek om die die sterkte van die verbinding wat vorm tussen aggregaat en bitumen te meet. Die US het in 2008 betrokke geraak by die BBS toets studie om hulp te verleen met die ontwikkeling en praktiese evalueering van die BBS toets metode. As gevolg van tyd en personeel tekorte is die betrokkendheid by die US beperk tot verskeie besprekings sessies, n studie toer, die evalueering van die BBS toets sowel as die voltooing van n uitgebreide stel toetse. Deur die voltooing van eksperimente met die BBS toets was dit moontlik om die uitvoerbaarheid en herhaalbaarheid van die ontwikkelde prosedure te toets. Die resultate van die toetse is suksesvol gebruik om die ontwikkeling van die verbinding sterkte tussen gemodifiseerde en ongemodifiseerde bitumen emulsies en tilliet en graniet te definïeer en te evalueer. Dit was ook moontlik om die resultate van die Universiteit Stellenbosch en die Universiteit of Wisconsin-Madison suksesvol met mekaar te vergelyk aangesien toetse by beide die instansies voltooi is. Die ontwikkeling van die toets en die inter laboratorium toets resultate het dit moontlik gemaak om die hipotese te bevestig dat die BBS toets prosedure effektief gebruik kan word om die bitumen en aggregaat verdindinge te toets en te evalueer. Behalwe vir die tempo van die lading waarteen die aftrek sterkte getoets word , is die emulsie tipe en die nabehandeling tydperk beide geidentifiseer as die mees beduidende invloede wat bydrae tot die ontwikkeling van die verbinding sterkte. Die aggregaat tipe is ook geidentifiseer as n belangrike faktor wat die verbinding sterkte ontwikkeling sal beïnvloed. Die interaksie tussen die emulsie tipe en nabehandeling tydperk was geïdentifiseer as die mees beduidende interaksie. Daar sal wel nog heelwat eksperimente voltooi moet word met die BBS toets prosedure voordat dit volkome geïntegreer kan word as deel van n prestasie gebaseerde spesifikasie stelsel vir die ontwerp van seëls.

Full textAbstract:
Masonry is one of the oldest forms of construction materials that is still in use today. However, construction practices in the modern age demand faster and more economical practices. Dry-stack masonry, or masonry that doesn't use mortar to bind the blocks together, is a unique system to make masonry more economical. Though several systems of dry-stack masonry have been suggested little to no data exists as most of these systems are patented. This research used dry-stacked normal weight concrete masonry units with an eccentrically placed reinforcement. The wall system is connected through a surface bond and lacks any geometric connection. Previously, research has been conducted on the wall system for its axial compressive capacity, but little information is known about its ability to withstand lateral forces such as earthquakes. Research was conducted on the wall system in order to determine the seismic parameters, including the force reduction factor, overstrength factor, and the displacement amplification factor. To determine these factors the guidelines from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Quantification of Building Seismic Performance Factors 2009 were followed. The guidelines are explicit that both experimental data and computer modeling are needed to quantify these parameters. Experimental data was obtained from a diagonal tension test, and an in-plane shear test. The diagonal tensions test provided preliminary values on the shear modulus and shear resistance. The in-plane shear test was of primary interest and what would be used to verify the computer model. Computer modeling of the wall system was accomplished with Vector 2. Initially the computer modeling was done to reproduce experimental data. Then, a parametric study was performed using the model to see what component of the wall most effected its capacity. This analysis showed that the surface bond was the component of the wall that most affects its capacity. Finally, the computer model was run through the FEMA Far-Field earthquake suite to gather data on the strength and ductility. Values of the force reduction factor, overstrength factor, and displacement amplification factor were determined based on the time history analysis and pushover analysis on the computer model.

Full textAbstract:
Objectives: The purpose of this in-vitro study was to evaluate the effects of three different surface preparation methods on the shear bond strength of orthodontic brackets bonded to zirconia and determine the most appropriate method. Methods: 45 zirconia and 30 leucite-reinforced porcelain mandibular premolar crowns were divided into 5 groups and received the following surface preparations: 37% phosphoric acid and non-hydrolyzed silane, 4% hydrofluoric acid and hydrolyzed silane, microetch with 50μ Al 2 O3 particles. A universal adhesive primer containing MDP was applied and the brackets were bonded with a bis-GMA composite resin. Shear bond strength (SBS) at bond failure and ARI score were recorded. Results: There was a statistically significant difference among the studied groups for the SBS. The highest mean SBS (11.03 MPA) was recorded for the zirconia/microetch group, and the lowest SBS (3.49 MPa) for the zirconia/phosphoric acid group. The leucite-reinforced porcelain/ hydrofluoric acid group had significantly more fractures than any other debond pattern. The zirconia/hydrofluoric acid group was the only one with a SBS (8.08 MPa) that fell within the recommended range of 6-8 MPa. This group also had a favorable debond pattern with most composite remaining on the bracket.
Conclusions: Important consideration should be given to the surface preparation of porcelain and zirconia prior to bonding orthodontic attachments. Phosphoric acid etch is not an adequate surface preparation when bonding to zirconia. Hydrofluoric acid is not suitable when bonding to leucite-reinforced porcelain, as it is associated with a higher rate of surface fracture. Microetch with 50μ Al 2 O3 particles in combination with an MDP containing universal adhesive primer provided optimal mean shear bond strength, along with favorable debond patterns when bonding to zirconia. Hydrofluoric acid etch in combination with a silane and a universal primer containing MDP provided acceptable shear bond strength to zirconia. This protocol was not significantly different from zirconia prepared with microetch and either method can be successfully employed.

The current research project mainly aims to investigate the corrosion resistance and bond
performance of steel reinforced recycled aggregate concrete incorporating nano-silica under
both normal and corrosive environmental conditions. The experimental part includes testing
of 180 pull-out specimens prepared from 12 different mixtures. The main parameters studied
were the amount of recycled aggregate (RCA) (i.e. 0%, 25%, 50% and 100%), nano silica
(1.5% and 3%), steel embedment length as well as steel bar diameter (12 and 20mm).
Different levels of corrosion were electrochemically induced by applying impressed voltage
technique for 2, 5, 10 and 15 days. The experimental observations mainly focused on the
corrosion level in addition to the ultimate bond, failure modes and slips occurred.
Experimental results showed that the bond performance between un-corroded steel and
recycled aggregate concrete slightly reduced, while a significant degradation was observed
after being exposed to corrosive conditions, in comparison to normal concrete. On the other
hand, the use of nano silica (NS) showed a reasonable bond enhancement with both normal
and RCA concretes under normal conditions. However, much better influence in terms of bond
and corrosion resistance was observed under advancing levels of corrosion exposure,
reflecting the improvement in corrosion resistance. Therefore, NS was superbly effective in
recovering the poor performance in bond for RCA concretes. More efficiency was reported
with RCA concretes compared to the conventional concrete. The bond resistance slightly with
a small amount of corrosion (almost 2% weight loss), then a significant bond degradation
occurs with further corrosion.
The influence of specific surface area and amount of nano silica on the performance of concrete
with different water/binder (w/b) ratios has been also studied, using 63 different mixtures produced
with three different types of colloidal NS having various surface areas and particle sizes. The
results showed that the performance of concrete is heavily influenced by changing the surface area
of nano silica. Amongst the three used types of nano silica, NS with SSA of 250 m2
/g achieved the highest enhancement rate in terms of compressive strength, water absorption and
microstructure analysis, followed by NS with SSA of 500 m2/g, whilst NS with SSA of 51.4
m2
/g was less advantageous for all mixtures. The optimum nano silica ratio in concrete is
affected by its particle size as well as water to binder ratio.
The feasibility of the impact-echo method for identifying the corrosion was evaluated and
compared to the corrosion obtained by mass loss method. The results showed that the impact-echo testing can be effectively used to qualitatively detect the damage caused by corrosion in
reinforced concrete structures. A significant difference in the dominant frequencies response
was observed after exposure to the high and moderate levels of corrosion, whilst no clear
trend was observed at the initial stage of corrosion.
Artificial neural network models were also developed to predict bond strength for corroded/uncorroded steel bars in concrete using the main influencing parameters (i.e., concrete strength, concrete cover, bar diameter, embedment length and corrosion rate). The developed models
were able to predict the bond strength with a high level of accuracy, which was confirmed by
conducting a parametric study.Higher Education Institute in the Libyan Government MONE BROS Company in Leeds (UK) for providing recycled aggregates BASF and Akzonobel Companies for providing nano silica NS, Hanson Ltd, UK, for suppling cement

Les anticorps thérapeutiques sont couramment utilisés pour le traitement contre le cancer. Ils sont sélectionnées par leur affinité avec leur antigène mesuré normalement dans un environnent à trois dimensions (3D). Cependant, de fois les interactions anticorps-antigène ont lieu à l’interface entre deux cellules (i.e. 2D). Nous faisons l’hypothèse que les contraintes physiques à cette l’interface telles que la force et le mouvement relatif des molécules confinées aux surfaces modulent les propriétés de la liaison anticorps-antigène. Notre but est d’explorer les liens entre la mécanique de la liaison et la réponse cellulaire. Pour quantifier la cinétique 2D et la mécanique de ces interactions, nous avons effectué des mesures en utilisant la chambre à flux laminaire des deux anticorps à domaine unique (sdAbs) ciblant le récepteur CD16 exprimé dans la cellule Natural Killer (NK) et cinq sdAbs ciblant le marqueur tumoral HER-2 exprimé dans certains cancers. Nos résultats montrent des liaisons glissantes, idéales et pour la première fois, une liaison accrocheuse dans des interactions anticorps-antigène. Des expériences d’adhésion cellulaire montrent une corrélation entre la résistance à la force de la liaison accrocheuse et une meilleure adhésion des NK. Des sdAbs ont été sélectionnés pour constituer des anticorps bi-specifiques (bsAbs) capables de recruter des NK contre des cellules cancéreuses HER-2+. Ces bsAbs induisent une cytotoxicité supérieur a celle de l’anticorps de référence. Leur efficacité est modulée par la mécanique du coté antiCD16 du bsAbs en fonction de la nature de la cellule cancéreuse, suggérant un rôle de la force pour les faibles densités de HER-2Therapeutic antibodies have become a major treatment in cancer due in part to their ability to recruit immune cells onto tumours. They are selected on the basis of their affinity for their antigen in a three dimensions (3D) environment. However, in some major modes of action, antibodies do bind the antigen at the interface between immune cells and target cells. We hypothesize that the physical constraints of cell-cell interface (i.e. 2D), including force and relative motion of molecules confined at surfaces, modulate the antigen-antibody binding. Specifically, we aim at exploring the links between bond mechanics and cellular response. To quantify 2D kinetics and mechanics, we perform measurements using the laminar flow chamber of two Single Domains Antibodies (sdAbs) against the surface receptor CD16 expressed in Natural Killer (NK) cells and five sdAbs against the tumoral marker HER-2 expressed in some breast cancers. Our results show three different bond dissociation behaviour under force; slip, ideal and for the first time, a catch bond. Cell adhesion experiments over sdAb antiCD16 coated surfaces reveal a correlation between antibody resistance to force and a larger spreading of NK cells. Based on their force behaviour, some sdAbs were selected to be fused forming bi-specific antibodies (bsAbs) able to recruit NK cells toward HER-2+ cancer cells. All new bsAbs display a better efficacy in cytotoxicity than the reference therapeutic antibody. We show that their efficacy is modulated by the mechanical behaviour of the antiCD16 side, depending on the nature of the target cell line, which may hint to an effect of force dependence in the limit of low antigen coverage

METHODS: Exposed flat dentin of extracted third molars was only ground with 600-grit SiC paper/1 minute (normal dentin - N), or subsequently eroded by a regular-cola soft-drink (eroded dentin - E). N and E were acid-etched, washed, dried and rehydrated with 1.5 μL, respectively, of distillated water (control - NC / EC); of 0.004% CHX (N0.004% / E0.004%); or of 2% CHX (N2% / E2%). Adper Single Bond 2 was applied in all specimens and resin composite buildups were constructed with Filtek Z350. Specimens were sectioned in beams, which were tested (μTBS) immediately or after 6 months of aging. RESULTS: Microtensile bond strength to eroded dentin was always significantly lower than that to normal dentin. Application of tested CHX solutions did not exert a significant effect immediately; however, after aging, the 2% CHX prevented abrupt bond strength loss both to eroded and normal dentin.

Full textAbstract:
Dans le cadre du développement durable, les procédés rapides, propres et peu énergivores sont très recherchés particulièrement en chimie pour les réactions d’oxydation. A part les solutions de génie des procédés, la catalyse est l’un des meilleurs atouts pour améliorer le processus. Le vanadium étant l’un des meilleurs métaux catalytiques pour de tels réactions, nous avions à nous attaquer son problème de relargage dans le milieu réactionnel en vue d’applications acceptables pour l’environnement. Nous proposons donc dans cette thèse des catalyseurs au vanadium fixé à l’intérieur des nano pores de silices mésoporeuses hexagonales de type MCM-41. La grande dispersion et la rétention du vanadium sont promues grâce à la présence d’ion d’ancrage : Al(III), Ti(IV), Zr(IV) and Ce(IV). Une grande variété de catalyseurs de type V-(Al/Ti/Zr/Ce)-MCM-41 ont été préparés à partir de trois méthodes de synthèse: l’une, ultra-rapide en une étape assistée par micro-onde, la seconde à étapes séquentielles multiples mettant en œuvre une technique de pochoir moléculaire et la troisième à nombre d’étapes réduites utilisant un traitement thermique partiel d’une surface préalablement organosilylée avant le greffage des métaux. Un large panel de techniques physicochimiques fut appliqué à la caractérisation de ces solides avec une attention particulière portée à l’analyse de la bande de transfert de charge ligand-métal du vanadium au degré d’oxydation +5 dont le décalage vers le bleu est corrélé à la taille des clusters d’oxyde de ces ions. La rétention du vanadium dans le méthanol a été corrélée à la dispersion du vanadium comme la dégradation à l’air du 1,2-diphényle-2-méthoxyéthanol. Ce substrat fut choisi comme modèle pour étudier la dégradation de la lignine par clivage C-C ou C-O. Notons que ce bio-polymère produit du phénoxypropanol methylé bio-sourcé utilisé dans les bio-carburants et comme précurseur en chimie fine. Dans le cas présent, un balayage à haut débit de la dégradation de cette molécule mettant en œuvre 96 mini-réacteurs en parallèle a permis de sélectionner le solvant, le métal d’ancrage et la teneure des deux métaux donnant la plus haute conversion. Contrairement aux catalyseurs homogènes, nos catalyseurs présentent une très haute sélectivité en clivage C-CThe search for practical large-scale, fast, clean and energy saving chemical processes are highly regarded in the frame of a sustainable development, particularly for the most problematic oxidation reactions. Apart from chemical engineering solutions, improving the process using heterogeneous catalysis is one of the most adapted solution. Vanadium being considered the best metal for such kind of reactions, one had to tackle the problem of its high dispersion on a support to minimize its high propensity for leaching and to optimize its stability for practicable, safe and clean uses. In the present thesis, vanadium is supported inside the nanopores of a mesoporous silica of MCM-41 type where the high dispersion is assisted by the presence of anchoring ions such as Al(III), Ti(IV), Zr(IV) and Ce(IV) ions. A large set of V-(Al/Ti/Zr/Ce)-MCM-41 catalysts was prepared according to three different methods of preparation: i) ultra-fast one-pot synthesis protocol using the assistance of microwave, ii) post-synthesis modification using molecular stencil patterning (MSP) technique and iii) partial thermal treatment (PTT) of the organo-silylated support. The catalysts were characterized thoroughly using a panel of physical techniques and, particularly, the blue shift of the optical gap measured from the vanadium charge transfer band known to correlated with the dispersion of the metal. In complement, the stability was tested from metal leaching using methanol as a corrosive solvent while their catalytic reactivity was estimated in the aerobic oxidation of 1,2-diphenyl-2-methoxyethanol. This is a model reaction that simulates the oxidative C-C bond cleavage in lignin, the most difficult and crucial step in the degradation of this biopolymer, then producing in a clean way valuable methoxylated phenoxy propanol units useful for biomass fuels or bio-sourced precursors for fine chemistry. A high throughput screening approach was applied to test this aerobic oxidation reaction running over 96 reactors in parallel at the same temperature and sorting out the best catalysts with the most suitable anchoring ions and metal loading for the highest catalytic efficiency
在可持续发展的背景下，对于清洁高效节能可行的大规模化工过程尤其是存在诸多问题的氧化反应过程的探索倍受瞩目。除化学工程解决方案之外，通过多相催化来改进反应过程也是最可行的途径之一。钒被认为是最适合于催化此类反应的金属之一，其亟待解决的问题是实现钒在载体上的高度分散，并最大限度地降低其浸出倾向，改善其稳定性，从而实现对其安全清洁有效的利用。本文提出将钒负载于MCM-41型六方介孔二氧化硅的纳米孔道中，通过锚定离子如Al(III)、 Ti(IV)、Zr(IV)、Ce(IV)离子的存在促进钒的高度分散和固载。采用三种不同的方法制备了一系列V-(Al/Ti/Zr/Ce)-MCM-41催化剂：1、超快微波一步合成法，2、使用分子复刻版技术改性的后嫁接法，3、对有机硅烷化载体进行部分热处理改性的后嫁接法。通过一系列物理化学技术对合成的催化剂进行了充分表征，特别是对与金属分散度相关的钒的电荷跃迁带的测量和与其对应的光谱带隙蓝移进行了分析。随后，以甲醇作为腐蚀溶剂对合成的钒催化剂进行了金属析出的稳定性测试。通过一种木质素模型化合物1,2-diphenyl-2-methoxyethanol的需氧氧化反应测试了所合成负载型钒催化剂的催化活性。在相同温度及反应条件下，用96通道高通量微反应器技术评价了所制催化剂对该反应的催化性能，筛选出具有最高催化效率的负载型钒催化剂及其最适合的锚定离子。该反应中的碳-碳键裂解反应是木质素降解的最关键也是最困难的步骤之一，可通过这类生物聚合物的降解以清洁的方式生产有用的生物质燃料或生物来源高附加值精细化学品前驱体。

Full textAbstract:
During the surgical preparation of bone, prior to insertion of an implant, bone will be traumatized which leads to local resorption. Consequently, early implant fixation might be reduced. Impaired early fixation, as evidenced by radiostereometry, has been associated with increased risk of late loosening. Bisphosphonates are known to inhibit bone resorption by osteoclasts and have shown to increase implant fixation when administered systemically or locally directly at the bone prior to implant insertion. A method to bind bisphosphonates directly to the implant was developed. Stainless steel screws were coated with crosslinked fibrinogen, serving as an anchor for bisphosphonate attachment. The screws were inserted in the tibial metaphysis in rats and implant fixation was analyzed with pullout measurements. Bisphosphonate coated screws turned out to have 28 % higher pullout force at 2 weeks compared to control screws with the fibrinogen coating only. The next experiment was designed to measure at what stage in the healing process the strongest bisphosphonate effect was gained. Bisphosphonate coated screws were expected to reduce the resorption of the traumatized bone. However, no decreased fixation was found in the control group. Instead, the fixation increased with time, and so did the effect of the bisphosphonates. At 8 weeks, the pullout force was twice as high for screws with bisphosphonate compared to control screws. By histology at 8 weeks, a bone envelope was found around bisphosphonate coated screws but absent around control screws. Thus, the anti catabolic action of the bisphosphonate resulted in an increased amount of bone surrounding the bisphosphonate screws. Titanium is generally considered to be better fixated in bone compared to stainless steel. The coating technique was found to be applicable on titanium as well, again with improved fixation. A majority of fractures occur in osteoporotic bone. Despite the relatively low amount of bisphosphonates at the screws, the bisphosphonate coating improved implant fixation at 2 weeks also in rats made osteoporotic by ovariectomy. In conclusion, bisphosphonates bound to titanium or stainless steel screws coated with fibrinogen increased fixation in bone, in rats. These results suggest that the bisphosphonate and fibrinogen coating might improve the fixation of screw shaped implants and possibly also arthroplasties, in humans.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: Flat mid-coronal dentin surfaces of extracted third molars (n = 28) were subjected only to grinding with a 600-grit SiC paper for 1 min (sound dentin S, n = 14) or additionally to erosive pH cycling with a cola-based soft-drink (eroded dentin E, n = 14). After acid etching, rinsing, and air drying, S and E were rehydrated with 1.5 μl of 2% CHX (S2%, n = 7; E2%, n = 7) or of distilled water (control SC, n = 7; EC, n = 7). Composite buildups were incrementally constructed with Filtek Z350 following Adper Single Bond 2 application. Specimens were sectioned into beams, which were subjected to microtensile testing immediately or after 6 or 12 months of aging. Fractured surfaces were observed under a digital microscope (50X magnification). Microtensile bond strength (μTBS) (MPa) was analyzed by three-way ANOVA and Tukey's tests (α = 0.05) and failure mode by the Kruskal-Wallis test (α = 0.05). RESULTS: Compared to sound dentin, eroded dentin was consistently related to lower μTBS. Immediately and after 12-month aging, the effect of CHX was insignificant, but it was significant after 6-month aging, when it conserved the bond strength to both eroded and sound dentin. The percentage of adhesive and mixed failures were equivalent, and significantly more frequent than cohesive failures, whether in dentin or in composite. CONCLUSION: The 2% CHX effect on bond strength conservation to both eroded and sound dentin was not found to be persistent.

Full textAbstract:
Fiber-metal laminates (FML) are the advanced materials that are developed to improve the high performance of lightweight structures that are rapidly becoming a superior substitute for metal structures. The reasons behind their emerging usage are the mechanical properties without a compromise in weight other than the traditional metals. The bond remains a concern. This thesis reviews the effect of pre-treatments, say heat, P2 etch and laser treatments on the substrate which modifies the surface composition/roughness to impact the bond strength. The constituents that make up the FMLs in our present study are the Aluminum 2024 alloy as the substrate and the carbon fiber prepregs are the fibers. These composite samples are manufactured in a compression molding process after each pre-treatment and are then subjected to different tests to investigate its properties in tension, compression, flexural and lap shear strength. The results indicate that heat treatment adversely affects properties of the metal and the joint while laser treatments provide the best bond and joint strength.

Full textAbstract:
Eine Studie zur kovalenten Immobilisierung einiger Porphyrinderivate und einer p-Maleimidophenyl-Spezies (p-MP) auf der Si(111)-Oberfläche wird vorgestellt. Hierbei lag der Schwerpunkt auf der Untersuchung des Einflusses von Reaktionsparametern auf die Abscheidung und die Qualität organischer Schichten. Die dünnen Schichten werden mittels nasschemischer Methoden abgeschieden. Die hergestellten Strukturen werden mit einer Vielzahl oberflächensensitiver Messtechniken wie der IR-Ellipsometrie, der XPS-, der SEIRA- und der IR-Reflexionsspektroskopie analysiert. Alle Abscheidungen in dieser Arbeit werden in situ durchgeführt, zusätzlich zu den ex situ Reaktionen, um das Verständnis der Filmwachstums- und Depositionsgeschwindigkeiten zu erhalten. Bei der Untersuchung der Porphyrin-Dünnschichten lag der Fokus auf den synthetische Bedingungen der Materialabscheidung. Die Lösungsreaktionen zeigen, dass die Reaktion mit dem voraktivierten Porphyrinderivat zu einer besseren Ausbeute führt als mit dem in situ aktivierten Porphyrin. Wenn diese Reaktion jedoch unter Verwendung des Schicht-für-Schicht-Abscheidungsprinzips auf die Oberfläche übertragen wird, findet die Reaktion mit den oberflächengebundenen Aminosilanmolekülen mit einer viel langsameren Geschwindigkeit statt als die gleiche Reaktion in Lösung. Es wird ein alternativer Syntheseansatz vorgeschlagen, bei dem das Produkt in Lösung hergestellt und dann auf dem oxidierten Si-Substrat abgeschieden wird. Eine weitere in situ-Studie zum p-MP-Elektropfropfen auf der H-terminierten Si(111)-Oberfläche liefert Details zur Dünnschichtbildung im monolagigen und im sub-monolagigen Bereich. Die spontane Pfropfung von p-MP wird ebenfalls in situ überwacht. Es wurde festgestellt, dass die Bildung einer Monoschicht während der stromlosen Abscheidung länger dauert als bei einer elektrochemischen Abscheidung. Als Alternative zum Radikalmechanismus wird ein kationischer Mechanismus vorgeschlagen.A study on the covalent immobilization of a couple of porphyrin derivatives and a p-maleimidophenyl species (p-MP) on Si(111) surface is presented to investigate how do reaction parameters influence the deposition and the quality of organic layers. The thin films are deposited with “wet chemistry” methods. The prepared structures are analyzed with a variety of surface sensitive techniques, namely, IR ellipsometry, XPS, SEIRA, and IR reflection spectroscopy. All depositions in this work are conducted in situ, in addition to the ex situ reactions, to gain an understanding of the film growth and deposition rates. The study on porphyrin thin films focused on the synthetic conditions of material deposition. Solution reactions indicate that the reaction with the pre-activated porphyrin derivative leads to a better yield than with the in situ-activated porphyrin. However, when this reaction is transferred to the surface by using the layer-by-layer deposition approach, the reaction with the surface-bound aminosilanes molecules takes place at a much slower rate than the same reaction in solution. An alternative synthetic approach, where the product is prepared in solution and then deposited on the oxidized Si substrate, is proposed. A parallel in situ study on p-MP electrografting on the H-terminated Si(111) surface provides details on the thin film formation in a monolayer and a sub-monolayer regime. The spontaneous grafting of p-MP is also monitored in situ. It was found that the formation of a monolayer during the electroless deposition takes longer than an electrochemical deposition. A cationic mechanism is proposed as an alternative to a radical mechanism.

Para avaliar o efeito de diferentes tratamentos superficiais sobre a resistência ao cisalhamento da união entre uma liga metálica (Co-Cr-Mo - Remanium CD) e uma resina composta (Z-250) e analisar o tipo de fratura durante a separação dos espécimes, sessenta discos metálicos foram fundidos, regularizados e polidos, submetidos a quatro ciclos térmicos (vácuo, 960ºC, 8 minutos) e divididos aleatoriamente em seis grupos. Cada grupo recebeu um tipo de tratamento: Grupo ASB: Asperização com ponta diamantada (No 3118); Grupo ASI: Asperização e aplicação do silano (3M); Grupo AAP: Asperização e aplicação do Alloy Primer (Kuraray); Grupo JSB: Jateamento com óxido de alumínio (50µm, 75lib/pol2); Grupo JSI: Jateamento e aplicação do silano; Grupo JAP: Jateamento e aplicação do Alloy Primer. Todos os espécimes receberam aplicação do adesivo Single Bond e da resina Z-250 (3M), foram armazenados em água deionizada a 37ºC por 24 horas e separados em ensaio de cisalhamento. Os resultados e desvio-padrão de cada grupo, expressos em MPa foram: ASB: 12,708±2,962; ASI: 16,343±2,714 e AAP: 16,723±2,666; JSB: 25,958±5,650; JSI: 28,185±3,322; JAP: 28,670±3,246. Os maiores valores foram produzidos pelos grupos jateados (JSB, JSI e JAP); o silano e o Alloy primer aumentaram a retentividade entre a resina Z-250 e a liga de Co-Cr-Mo, independente da textura superficial e sem apresentar diferença entre os mesmos; todos os espécimes apresentaram falha adesiva na interface testada.To evaluate the effect of different surface treatments on shear bond strength between a metallic alloy (Co-Cr-Mo - Remanium CD) and a composite resin (Z-250) and to evaluate the fracture mode after testing, sixty disks were casted, polished, submitted to four thermal cycles (960ºC/8min) and divided randomly in six groups. Each group received a different type of treatment: Group ASB: roughen with diamond bur (No 3118); Group ASI: roughen and application of a ceramic Primer; Group AAP: roughen and application of a metallic Primer; Group JSB: Sandblasting with 50 µm aluminum oxide (75lib/pol2); Group JSI: Sandblasting and application of a ceramic Primer; Group JAP: Sandblasting and application of a metallic Primer. All the specimens received the application of an adhesive (Single Bond) and a composite resin (Z-250 /3M). The groups were stored in distilled water at 37ºC during 24 hours and submitted to shear bond strength test. The results and the standard deviation of each group (expressed in MPa) were: JSB: 25,958±5,650; JSI: 28,185±3,322; JAP: 28,670±3,246; ASB: 12,708±2,962; ASI: 16,343±2,714 and AAP: 16,723±2,666. The highest values were obtained by the sandblasted groups (JSB, JSI e JAP). In spite of the surface, ceramic primer and alloy primer increased the retention between the composite resin Z-250 and the Co-Cr-Mo alloy without statistical differences on the results; all of the specimens showed adhesive failures.

This in vitro study was conducted to evaluate the influence of surface
treatments on the bond strength between an yttrium-stabilized tetragonal zirconia
polycrystal (Y-TZP) ceramic and resin cement. For this purpose, 120 Y-TZP blocks
(IPS e.max® ZirCAD in inLab®) were randomly distributed into 12 experimental
groups (n = 10), according to six surface treatment strategies and two storage
conditions (24 hours post cementation and after 60 days in water and 10,000
thermocicles): AS (as sintered, no treatment); TBS (tribochemical silica coating
followed by silanization); AAP (particle abrasion with 50 μm aluminum oxide followed
by application of Monobond®Plus); FS (fusion sputtering); SN (5 nm SiO2 nanofilm
deposition and silanization) and FSSN (FS + SN). The Y-TZP blocks were embedded
in acrylic resin and cylinders of resin cement (Ø=0.96 mm x 1 mm in height) (RelyX
ARC) were built up on the ceramic surface. After the storage, the specimens were
submitted to microshear test (μSBS) (1 mm/min) in a universal testing machine. After
testing, the surfaces were analyzed with a stereomicroscope and scanning electron
microscope (SEM) in order to categorize the failure modes. One additional specimen
per surface treatment strategy was analyzed by X-ray diffraction, for phases content,
and by SEM for micromorphology observation. Bond strength values were statistically
analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis and Mann Whitney tests for surface treatments (p
<0.001) and aging factor (p <0.05). In both storage conditions, TBS and AAP
provided higher bond strength values, followed by FSSN, FS and SN groups. The
aging negatively influenced the results, with one exception for the FS. An increase in
the amount of monoclinic phase was observed in the abraded groups. Sandblasting
of alumina particles followed by application of a primer with MPA is as effective as
the tribochemical treatment combined with silane for pretreatment of the Y-TZP
surface, with respect to the bond strength to the composite.No presente trabalho objetivou-se avaliar, in vitro, o efeito de diferentes tratamentos de superfície na resistência de união de uma cerâmica à base de zircônia policristalina tetragonal estabilizada por ítria (Y-TZP) a um cimento resinoso. Para tanto, 120 blocos de Y-TZP (IPS e.max® ZirCAD for inLab®, Ivoclar-Vivadent, Schaan, Liechtenstein) foram distribuídos randomicamente em 12 grupos experimentais (n=10), conforme 6 estratégias de tratamento de superfície e 2 condições de envelhecimento (24 horas e após o envelhecimento em água e termociclagem): AS (sem tratamento); TBS (jateamento de partículas de alumina revestidas por sílica e silanização); AAP (abrasão com partículas de alumina seguida da aplicação de primer universal); FS (pulverização de micropartículas de zircônia na superfície livre da Y-TZP e após, fusão por sinterização); SN (deposição de nanofilme de sílica com 5 nm) e FSSN (FS seguido de SN). Os blocos de Y-TZP foram embutidos em resina acrílica e microcilindros de cimento resinoso (0,96 mm de diâmetro; 1 mm de altura) (RelyX ARC) foram confeccionados na superfície cerâmica. Após o armazenamento, os testes de microcisalhamento foram conduzidos a uma velocidade de 1 mm/min, em máquina de ensaios universal. Após o teste, as superfícies foram analisadas com estereomicroscópio e microscópio eletrônico de varredura (MEV) para caracterização das falhas. Em um espécime adicional, também foi conduzida análise de fases do material por difração de raios-X e caracterização da micromorfologia de superfície em MEV. Os valores de resistência de união foram submetidos aos testes estatísticos Kruskal-Wallis e Mann Whitney para os tratamentos testados (p<0.001) e para o fator envelhecimento (p<0.05). Em ambas as condições de envelhecimento, TBS e AAP proporcionaram os maiores valores de resistência adesiva, seguidos dos grupos FSSN, FS e SN. O envelhecimento influenciou negativamente os resultados, com única exceção para o FS. A difractometria revelou aumento de conteúdo monoclínico nos grupos jateados. FS não alterou a percentagem de fase monoclínica. O jateamento de partículas de alumina seguido da aplicação de um primer com MPA apresentou-se tão efetivo quanto o tratamento triboquímico aliado ao silano, para o pré-tratamento da superfície da Y-TZP, no que diz respeito à resistência de união ao compósito.

O objetivo desse trabalho in vitro foi avaliar a resistência de união ao microcisalhamento (μSBS) de cerâmicas com diferentes graus de translucidez e agentes de cimentação, no tempo imediato e após simulação de 1 ano de envelhecimento em termociclagem, assim como avaliar a composição elementar por espectrometria de energia dispersiva (EDS). Foram selecionadas 4 cerâmicas: Dissilicato de lítio (DL), Prettau Anterior (PA), Prettau (PR) e ICE (IC). Os espécimes cerâmicos foram distribuídos em 16 grupos experimentais (n=5) a depender da combinação de variáveis: cerâmica vs tratamento de superfície (silano- SL ou silano+adesivo- AS) vs tempo de armazenamento (imediato e longevidade) vs cimento resinoso (Variolink II ou Variolink Veneer). As cerâmicas de zircônia foram submetidas ao jateamento com óxido de alumínio e a cerâmica de dissilicato de lítio foi condicionada com ácido fluorídrico à 5% por 20s. Realizado o tratamento de superfície de acordo com cada grupo experimental, tubos de tygon foram posicionados na superfície da cerâmica e preenchidos com cimento resinoso. Após 24 horas em estufa à 37ºC e após 10.000 ciclos térmicos, os espécimes foram submetidos ao teste de microcisalhamento, numa velocidade de 1mm/min até a falha. As falhas foram observadas em microscópio óptico num aumento de 100x, e avaliadas em microscopia eletrônica de varredura (FEG) com uma magnificação de 150x. Adicionalmente, as cerâmicas foram submetidas ao teste de espectrometria de energia dispersiva (EDS) para avaliação da sua composição elementar. Para fins estatísticos, optou-se por dividir os resultados em duas condições experimentais: uma para o cimento Variolink II e outra para o Veneer. Portanto, para cada cimento os dados da μSBS foram submetidos ao teste de μSBS (ANOVA 3-fatores e Tukey, α = 0,05). Para o cimento Variolink II, não foi encontrada interação tripla significativa (p>0,05). A interação dupla tratamento vs tempo (p<0,001) foi significativa, sendo os valores de μSBS imediato estatisticamente superiores à longevidade. Já a interação dupla tratamento vs cerâmica, foi estatisticamente significante (p=0,039), sendo que as cerâmicas à base de zircônia tiveram maiores valores de resistência de união, independente do tratamento de superfície. E a interação dupla tempo vs cerâmica (p<0,001) mostrou uma diminuição da μSBS de todas as cerâmicas após a termociclagem. O cimento Variolink Veneer mostrou uma interação tripla significativa (p<0,001) para todos os grupos. Independente do tratamento de superfície e da cerâmica, estatisticamente os maiores valores de resistência de união foram encontrados no tempo imediato, e as cerâmicas à base de zircônia apresentaram valores estatisticamente superiores ao dissilicato de lítio. Pode-se concluir que as cerâmicas de zircônia são mais resistentes ao microcisalhamento, no tempo imediato e após termociclagem; e que a associação AS interfere positivamente nos resultados à longo prazo.
The objective of this in vitro work was to evaluate a micro-shear strength (μSBS) of ceramics with different degrees of translucency and cementing agents,on immediate time and after simulation of 1 year of aging in thermocycling, as well as to evaluate the elemental composition do to the dispersive energy spectrometry (EDS) test. Four ceramics were selected: Lithium Dissilicate (DL), Prettau Anterior (PA), Prettau (PR) and ICE (CI). The ceramic specimens were distributed in 16 experimental groups (n = 5) depending on the combination of variables: ceramic vs. surface treatment (silane-SL or silane + adhesive-AS) vs. storage time (immediate and longevity) vs. resin cement Brochure Variolink II or Variolink). The zirconia ceramics were subjected to blasting with aluminum oxide and the lithium disilicate ceramic with fluoridric acid 5% per 20s. After the surface treatment according to each experimental group, tygon tubes were placed on the ceramic surface and filled with resin cement. After 24 hours in an oven at 37ºC and after 10.000 thermal cycles, the specimens were submitted to the micro-shear test at a speed of 1mm / min until failure. Failures were observed in optical microscope in an increase of 100x, and evaluated in Scanning Electron Microscopy (FEG) with a magnification of 150x. Additionally, ceramics were submitted to the dispersive energy spectrometry (EDS) test to evaluate their elemental composition. For statistical purposes, it was chosen to divide the results into two experimental conditions:: one for Variolink II cement and another for Veneer. Thus, for each cement the μSBS data were subjected to the μSBS test (ANOVA 3-factor and Tukey, α = 0.05). For Variolink II cement, no significant triple interaction was found (p> 0.05). The double treatment vs time interaction (p <0.001) was significant, with immediate μSBS statistically higher values to distance. On the other hand, the double treatment versus ceramic interaction was statistically significant (p = 0.039), and the ceramics based on zirconia had higher values of bond strength, regardless of surface treatment. And the double time vs. ceramic interaction (p <0.001) showed a decrease of μSBS for all ceramics after the thermocycling. Variolink Veneer cement showed a significant triple interaction (p <0.001) for all groups. Regardless the surface treatment and ceramics, statistically, the highest values of resistance were found in the immediate time, and ceramics based on zirconia presented statistically higher values than lithium disilicate. It can be concluded that zirconia ceramics are more resistant to micro-shearing, on immediate time and after thermocycling; and that the AS association interferes positively with long-term results.

Sample preparation as an essential step in mass spectrometry-based analysis, plays a critical role in proteomics studies. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been widely used in protein and peptide sample preparation due to their magnetic properties, biocompatibility, easy synthesis and surface functionalization. MNPs loaded with analyte or analyte modification reagent can be easily separated from the reaction medium by an externally applied magnetic field. The small size of MNPs provides high analyte loading and extraction capacity. Additionally, MNP can be decorated with different functional groups to achieve selective modification or extraction of analyte. In this study we have utilized silica coated iron oxide magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs) for protein and peptide sample preparation.
Fluorescence-based methods were utilized for quantitative and qualitative characterization of N-hydrosucccinimidyl (NHS) ester groups on the surface of Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs. Fluorophore Dansylcadaverine was conjugated to NHS ester functional groups. Fluorometric measurement of cleaved dansylcadaveine was employed to determine the number of NHS ester groups per MNPs that was found to be 2.6 × 102 and 3.4 × 103for 20 nm and 100 nm Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPrespectively. The efficiency of labeling native bovine serum albumin (BSA) by NHS ester coated Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs was also explored in terms of maximizing the number of MNPs conjugated per BSA molecule or maximizing the number of BSA molecules conjugated per each MNP.
Lysine residues of apolipoprotein B-100 (apoB-100) on the surface of intact human low density lipoprotein (LDL) were labeled by NHS ester modified Fe3O4@SiO2 MNPs in aqueous solvents at room temperature. The MNP labeledapoB-100 was treated by SDS to remove lipids and then digested using trypsin. Tryptic peptides were eluted from MNPs by cleaving disulfide linkage between labeled peptides and MNPs. LC-MS/MS analysis found 28 peptides containing labeled lysine residues. These lysine residues should be on the solvent exposed surface of LDL since the large size of MNPs prevents contact of the labeling reagent to those lysines embedded inside the structure of LDL.
TCEP- immobilized Fe3O4@SiO2MNPs were fabricated and utilized for reduction of disulfide bonds in bovine pancreas insulin and two different cyclic peptides. Disulfide bonds were efficiently cleaved at room temperature in both organic and aqueous solvents confirmed by LC-MS/MS analysis of reduced/alkylated protein and peptides. Disulfide reduction and alkylation reactions was performed in one step and the reducing agent was simply separated from peptide and protein solution by magnetic separation.

A falta de controle tecnológico e conhecimento técnico na produção de argamassas resultam muitas vezes no aparecimento de manifestações patológicas, o que compromete o adequado cumprimento de suas principais funções: proteção, estanqueidade e acabamento estético das edificações. Buscando-se um melhor entendimento dos parâmetros que influenciam na resistência de aderência à tração e ao cisalhamento dos revestimentos argamassados aos substratos de concreto, o principal objetivo desta pesquisa consiste em verificar a influência da interação entre a área potencial de contato do substrato e a reologia das argamassas de revestimento no desempenho quanto a estas propriedades. Ainda, verificou-se a influência das propriedades reológicas das argamassas afetadas pelo teor de aditivo incorporador de ar na resistência de aderência à tração e ao cisalhamento de revestimentos argamassados, bem como o controle da rugosidade durante a confecção de substratos de concreto, proporcionando um aumento da área potencial de contato da argamassa de revestimento assentada sobre ele, visando melhorar o desempenho do revestimento quanto à resistência de aderência à tração e ao cisalhamento. Para que fosse possível alcançar estes objetivos foram realizados procedimentos laboratoriais que compreenderam a moldagem de prismas de concreto, com resistência à compressão de 35MPa, de 25x35x5cm, sobre placas de borracha que estamparam três diferentes tipos de rugosidades em suas superfícies. Sobre estes prismas, foram assentadas três diferentes tipos de argamassas de proporcionamento 1:1:4 (cimento:cal hidratada:areia, em volume, material seco), variando-se o comportamento reológico destas através de diferentes adições de aditivo incorporador de ar. Este assentamento ocorreu com o uso de caixa de queda, visando uma maior uniformidade da energia de aplicação. Para analisar as diferentes características reológicas das argamassas foram realizados ensaios de caracterização no estado fresco e endurecido conforme as normas vigentes. Os substratos de concreto foram caracterizados quanto à sua rugosidade com Scanner 3D a laser, além de ensaios de controle tecnológico. Ao final desta pesquisa pode-se concluir que nem sempre um acréscimo da área de contato proporcionado pela rugosidade do substrato é sinônimo de aumento da extensão de aderência e consequentemente da resistência de aderência. A reologia da argamassa possui grande influência sobre estes fatores, sendo essencial uma compatibilidade entre rugosidade do substrato e reologia das argamassas para que se tenha um incremento na resistência de aderência dos revestimentos ao substrato.and the shear bond strength of mortar rendering applied to concrete surfaces, this work intended to verify the influence of the interaction between surface potential contact area and mortar renderings’ rheology on these performance properties. Moreover, this work has the objective to verify the influence of the mortar’s rheology affected by the air-entraining agents in bond strength and the concrete surface roughness control in this property. In this study, three different pre-defined surface roughnesses were stamped with rubber plates (25x35x5cm) in a concrete mold then concrete prisms were molded. The surface concrete has a fix compressive strength of 35MPa. Three mortars with the 1:1:4 (cement: hydrated lime:sand, in volume, dry material) mix proportion, changing the air-entraining proportion to modify the rheology behavior were placed on these concrete surfaces, using a drop box for mortars. Tests of tensile bond strength (Ra), according to the requirements of Brazilian Standard - NBR 13528 (2010) and shear bond strength (Rc) had been carried out with these samples. Additionally characterization tests in fresh and hardened mortars had been done. The surfaces roughnesses were characterized by a 3D laser scanner and by technologic tests control. The results indicated that the increasing of the surface contact area is not an indicative that the bond strength will also increase. The mortar’s rheology has a very important influence in these factors, and it is essential the compatibility of the system to rise the contact area and consequently the bond strength.

O objetivo deste estudo foi realizar uma avaliação tridimensional da rugosidade superficial em 3 tipos de pinos de fibra - DT LightPost, FRC Postec Plus e Transluma Post - submetidos a diferentes tratamentos de superfície e avaliar os efeitos dos pré-tratamentos na resistência adesiva a um compósito de presa dual Biscore. Os tratamentos de superfície foram: imersão em ácido hidrofluorídrico, jateamento com óxido de alumínio a 50m, imersão em peróxido de hidrogênio, jateamento com óxido de alumínio a 50m seguido de imersão em ácido hidrofluorídrico e jateamento com óxido de alumínio a 50m seguido de imersão em peróxido de hidrogênio. No experimento 1, 75 pinos foram divididos em 3 grupos (n = 25), de acordo com seu fabricante e subdivididos em cinco subgrupos. A rugosidade superficial foi medida usando um rugosímetro tridimensional e analisada com o software de análise 3D. Os valores de rugosidade foram obtidos antes e após diferentes tratamentos de superfície na área dos mesmos corpos-de-prova. Para o experimento 2, foram utilizados os mesmos corpos-de-prova, os mesmos grupos e subgrupos do experimento 1, tendo sido adicionado o subgrupo de controle (n=90) e a resistência adesiva a um compósito presa dual Biscore foi mensurada através de um teste push-out. A resistência adesiva foi medida em uma máquina universal de ensaios, com uma célula de carga tipo SLBL-5kN em uma velocidade de 0,5 mm / min. Os resultados do experimento 1 foram analisados através de um teste estatístico t-Student. Jateamento e jateamento seguido de imersão em ácido hidrofluorídrico produziram um aumento estatisticamente significante na rugosidade, contudo somente o tratamento por jateamento proporcionou um aumento significativo nos valores de rugosidade. Os resultados do experimento 2 foram obtidos através de um um teste t-unilateral de hipótese com variância desconhecida. Concluiu-se que o jateamento com óxido de alumínio a 50μm em uma distância de 30 mm a 2,5 bar de pressão por 5 segundos foi suficiente para modificar a topografia dos pinos de fibra de vidro e quartzo e que o jateamento com partículas de 50 μ alumina a distância de 30 mm a 2,5 bar de pressão por 5 segundos foi o único tratamento de superfície que aumentou a resistência adesiva do compósito Biscore aos pinos DT Light Post e Transluma Post. Os pinos FRC Postec Plus não demostraram um aumento estatisticamente significante na resistência adesiva em nenhum grupo.The aim of this study was to perform a tridimensional surface roughness test evaluation of different surface treatments to 3 types of fiber posts - DT LightPost, FRC Postec Plus e Transluma Post - and evaluate the effects of the different pretreatments on the bond strength of a dual-cure resin core material Biscore. The different surface treatments were: immersion in hydrofluoric acid, sandblasting abrasion with 50 alumina particles, immersion in hydrogen peroxide, sandblasting abrasion with 50 alumina particles followed by immersion in hydrofluoric acid and sandblasting abrasion with 50 alumina particles followed by immersion in hydrogen peroxide. In the first experiment seventy five fiber posts were divided into 3 groups (n = 25), according to their manufacturer and subdivided into 5 subgroups. Surface roughness was measured using a tridimensional surface roughness test and analyzed with 3D analysis software. Surface roughness was obtained before and after the different surface treatments at the same post area. In the second experiment the same samples divided in groups and subgroups were used, but a control group (no treatment) was added (n = 90) and the bond strength to a composite resin core material Biscore was measured using a push-out design. The interfacial push-out bond strength was measured in a universal testing machine, with a load cell type SLBL-5kN at a crosshead speed of 0.5 mm/min. Results in experiment 1 were statistically analyzed using Students t-Test. Sandblasting and sandblasting followed by immersion in hydrofluoric acid produced a significant increase in roughness, but the sandblasting treatment was able to provide a significant roughness increase. Results in experiment 2 were statistically analysed using one-sided t-Test of Hypothesis with unknown variance. It was concluded that sandblasting airborne-particle abrasion with alumina 50 at a distance of 30 mm at 2.5 bars pressure for 5 seconds was sufficient to modify the surface topography of glass and quartz fiber posts and the sandblasting abrasion with 50 alumina particles at a distance of 30 mm at 2.5 bars pressure for 5 seconds was the only surface treatment in DT Light Post and Transluma Post that increased the bond strength to dual cure resin composite cores. FRC Postec Plus post did not shown an increase in bond strength in any group.

O propósito deste estudo foi avaliar a resistência adesiva ao cisalhamento de um cimento resinoso à alumina densamente sinterizada testando o tratamento superficial feito pelo fabricante. O cimento utilizado foi o Multilink (Ivoclar Vivadent) e a alumina foi a Procera®Alumina (Nobel Biocare) constituída por 99,9 % de óxido de alumínio densamente sinterizado. Trinta e dois cilindros de alumina foram confeccionados pela Nobel Biocare, onde um dos extremos deste cilindro recebeu o tratamento superficial e o outro não. Para a aplicação do cimento resinoso sobre os cilindros de alumina, utilizou-se uma matriz de Teflon com um orifício central de 3,5mm de diâmetro por 3,0mm de profundidade. Foram determinados 4 grupos experimentais: Grupo 1 superfície sem tratamento; Grupo 2 superfície sem tratamento e com aplicação de adesivo; Grupo 3 - superfície com o tratamento realizado pelo fabricante; Grupo 4 superfície com tratamento realizado pelo fabricante e com adesivo. Após a aplicação do cimento nos 4 grupos, os espécimes foram armazenados em água deionizada a 37ºC durante 24h, sendo, em seguida, montados em uma máquina universal de ensaios para realização dos testes de resistência ao cisalhamento. Os resultados foram submetidos à análise de variância a dois critérios e ao teste de Tukey para comparação entre os grupos. A superfície tratada (grupo 3) apresentou valores significativamente maiores que todos os outros grupos. A presença do adesivo diminuiu a resistência adesiva quando aplicado na superfície tratada, mas não deu diferença significante quando aplicado na superfície sem tratamento.The aim of this study was to investigate the shear bond strength between a resin cement and densely sintered alumina treated by the fabricant. The resin cement used was the Multilink (Ivoclar Vivadent) and the alumina the Procera®Alumina (Nobel Biocare) made with 99,9% of densely sintered aluminum oxide. Thirty two alumina cylinders were made by Nobel Biocare, and in one of the extremes was applied a own`s fabricant surface treatment. For the application of the cement, a Teflon matrix with a central hole (diameter of 3,5 mm and a height of 3,0 mm) was used. Four groups were created: Group 1 surface without treatment; Group 2 - surface without treatment and with adhesive; Group 3 surface with the own`s fabricant treatment; Group 4 - surface with the own`s fabricant treatment with adhesive. After the cement application, the specimens were stored in water at 37º C for 24 hours. Then the samples were placed in a universal testing machine for making the shear strength test. Statistical analysis was performed with two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and paired comparisons between groups were done with Tukey`s multiple comparison. Higher significant values were detected for Group 3 when compared with all the other groups. The adhesive decreased the shear bond strength when laid on the treated surface, and there were no difference when laid on the untreated surface.

OBJETIVOS:1a etapa: validar teste de cisalhamento utilizando um novo dispositivo de padronização através da comparação dos valores de resistência de união (RU) entre a zircônia com dois tratamentos de superfície e um cimento resinoso, aos resultados obtidos com testes de cisalhamento convencional e microcisalhamento; 2a etapa: avaliar o efeito dos primers metálicos à base de MDP por meio da RU entre zircônia Y-TZP e diferentes tipos de cimentos resinosos (de ativação química, duais e auto-adesivo); 3a etapa: avaliar o efeito de dois lasers Nd:YAG e Er:YAG e do jateamento com óxido de alumínio (JAT) na superfície da zircônia Y-TZP antes da sua sinterização final e da abrasão triboquímica mais silano (controle positivo) após a sinterização final, por meio da resistência à flexão (RF), rugosidade superficial (RS) e RU; 4a etapa: avaliar a estabilidade da união entre a zircônia e um cimento resinoso com um primer à base de MDP e de um laser de alta potência após a termociclagem. Os tratamentos superficiais utilizados nesta etapa foram escolhidos com base nos resultados da 2a e 3a etapas. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: para os testes de RU foram confeccionados corpos de prova de Y-TZP com dimensões 6x6x3mm, e para o teste de RF 2,5x4,5x20 mm. Para 1a etapa os tratamentos de superfície foram JAT+Signum Ziconia Bond (SZB Heraeus), abrasão triboquímica foi realizada Rocatec (ROC 3M Espe), o silano utilizado foi RelyX Ceramic Primer (3M Espe) e os cimentos resinosos: Panavia F (Kuraray), NX3 (Kerr), seT (SDI), Multilink (Ivoclair). Durante a 3a etapa a abrasão triboquímica foi realizada ROC, o laser Nd:YAG (Power Laser ST6, Lares Research - 1,2W, 10 Hz) e Er:YAG (Kavo Key II, KaVo Co. - 120 mJ, 6 Hz). O teste de cisalhamento com dispositivo de padronização foi o método de avaliação da RU utilizado para as 2a, 3a e 4a etapas. Os dados dos testes de RU, RG foram analisados pela ANOVA e Tukey (=0,05) e RF por Kruskall-Wallis (=0,05). RESULTADOS: 1a etapa: pelo teste de microcisalhamento os materiais se comportaram da seguinte forma: JAT+SZB>ROC>CO, sendo que para os outros dois testes de cisalhamento o seguinte ranqueamente foi obtido: JAT+SZB=ROC>CO. 2a etapa: o SZB apresentou maiores valores de RU para todos os cimentos quando comparados aos grupos controle. O ZP aumento os valores para o cimento Panavia F e NX3. Já o AP aumentou os valores para o cimento seT. 3a etapa: para o teste de RU o JAT e Er:YAG resultaram em valores similares ao ROC, sendo que Nd:YAG resultou em maiores valores comparado ao ROC. Quando avaliados por RS: Nd:YAG>Er:YAG>JAT>ROC; já para RF: ROC>JAT=Nd:YAG= Er:YAG. 4a etapa: Após o teste de cisalhamento os seguinte ranqueamento foi obtido: Nd:YAG 24h>Nd:YAG termociclado=SZB 24h>SZB termociclado. CONCLUSÕES: Uma vez que o teste de cisalhamento com dispositivo de padronização mostrou resultados similares ao teste de cisalhamento convencional pode ser um método viável para avaliação da RU. O tratamento com Nd:YAG antes da sinterização final se mostrou efetivo nos valores de RU.OBJECTIVES: first stage: validate shear test using a new device for standardized by comparing the values of bond strength (BS) with conventional shear test and microshear test, between zirconia and a resin cement with two surface treatments. Second stage: evaluate the effect of metal primers based on MDP by BS between YTZP and different types of resin cements. Third stage: evaluate Y-TZP surface treatments effect of two lasers (Nd:YAG and Er:YAG) and two sandblasting procedures, with Al2O3 (JAT) before final sintering and tribochemical slicatization after the final sintering, through the flexural resistance (FR) surface roughness (SR) and BS. Fourth stage: evaluate the bonding stability between zirconia and resin cement using a MDP-based primer or a high power laser, after thermal cycling. MATERIAL AND METHODS: BS Y-TZP specimens were prepared with dimensions of 6x6x3mm, and for FS test with 2,5x4,5x20 mm. In the first stage the surface treatments of the specimens were JAT+ Signum Ziconia Bond (SZB - Heraeus), tibochemical silicatization using Rocatec (ROC - 3MEspe) and control (CO - without treatment). In the second stage the primers used were Alloy-Primer (AP - Kuraray), SZB, Z-Prime Plus (ZP - Bisco), and the resin cements: Panavia F (Kuraray), NX3 (Kerr), set (SDI), Multilink (Ivoclair). During the third stage the tribochemical silicatization was perfomed using ROC. The shear bond strength device standardized was used to evaluate the BS of second, third and fourth stage. Test data for BS, SR were analyzed by ANOVA and Tukey test ( = 0.05) and FS by Kruskall-Wallis test ( = 0.05). RESULTS: first Stage: the microshear test groups behave as follow: JAT+SZB> ROC>CO, and for the other two shear tests following the ranking were obtained: JAT+SZB=ROC>CO. Second stage: the SZB showed higher BS for all cements when compared to control groups. The ZP values increased for Panavia F and NX3. AP values increased only for the seT cement. Third stage: BS values for JAT and Er:YAG were similar to ROC, and Nd:YAG was higher compared to the ROC. When evaluated by SR: Nd:YAG> Er:YAG>JAT> ROC, while for FS: ROC> JAT = Nd:YAG = Er:YAG. Fourth stage: after the shear test the following ranking was obtained: Nd:YAG 24h> Nd:YAG thermocycled = SZB 24h> SZB thermocycled. CONCLUSIONS: shear bond strength test with standardized device showed similar result to the conventional shear bond strength, and it can be considered a viable method for evaluating the BS. Treatment with Nd:YAG before the final sintering was effective in BS.
