    1046 Words  | 3 Pages

    Introduction Polymerization of cyclic esters has attracted a lot of interest for the synthesis of biodegradabale/ biocompatible polymeric materials, such as polylactide, polyglycolide and also other polymer compound such as linear polycarbonate. Ring opening polymerization of cyclic ester compounds is better than step polymerization for obtaining high Mw polymers in a controlled “living” fashion, while avoiding the formation of by-products.

    tooth of interest2. When a composite restoration is placed and undergoes polymerization through curing, shrinkage occurs. Research has shown that the percent of gaps between composite restorations can be variable; between 14% and 54%3. This can lead to an increased risk for micro-leakage and is of concern to both the dentist and the patient. Other causes of micro-leakage that exist include: continuous light polymerization methods4 and prerestorative home bleaching5. The effects of micro-leakage

In summary this study gave insight in to the mechanism of action of LC domains of FET proteins and RNA polymerase II. Experimental results in this study convincingly showed that polymerization of LC domains of FET proteins prompts their binding to CTD of RNA polymerase II; later phosphorylation of CTD

    teeth available, nano-filled composite teeth are preferred. Composite teeth have a PMMA coating around the tooth and a high content of filler particles. This gives them strength, higher resistance to forces than acrylic teeth and provides compete polymerization due to the PMMA coating. (Anusavice, K. J., Phillips, R. W., Shen, C., & Rawls, H. R, 2012). If the interface between the PMMA denture base and PMMA or composite teeth was weak, the denture will not be able to sustain occlusal forces, making the

  • What Are The Importance Of Polymers

    1898 Words  | 4 Pages

    OCCURANCE : Polymers are not rare they can be found everywhere. Polymers occur naturally and can also be manufactured . The formation of polymer is through a process called polymerization. Polymers found naturally are protiens, DNA, RNA, latex, rubber, hair, spider silk, cellulose, wood and many more. Polymers manufactured are called synthetic polymers. They are formed by natural polymers such as Rayon from cellulose , Nylon from

  • Beta 1 Integrins

    516 Words  | 2 Pages

    Using a fluoresced antibody, the scientists observed the clustering of beta 1 integrins that occurred at the same time as actin polymerization at the ripples of the cell membrane. The scientists tested the relationship between actin polymerization and activated beta 1 integrins by changing the way that the actin worked. They decreased the number of polymerizing actin ends by capping with with cytochalasin D in order to see if that would

  • Pvc

    Polymerization: PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) PVC or Polyvinyl Chloride (Poly (chloroethene)) is a type of plastic used all over the world for a range of things such as pipes, clothing and electrical cables. PVC is considered a thermoplastic resin meaning it resoftens when heated. It’s molecular formula is (C2H3CL)n and is a white powder that’s resistant to oxidation and degradation. However, it can be harmful to the environment but since it’s economically beneficial to many countries this is often overlooked

    result in grave consequences for the environment. The average time estimated for a plastic bottle to decompose is approximately seven hundred years. One way to solve this problem is to recycle plastic bottles into the polyester by a process called polymerization. A lot of textile industries select polyester as their choice of fibre and fabric. Polyester is extensively used in manufacturing all kinds of clothes and home furnishings. According to Kris Barber (2011, page2), it takes about three bottles to

  • A Brief Look into Polymer Processing

    2553 Words  | 6 Pages

    1. Introduction Polymeric materials play a functional role in every aspect of daily life, from clothing to infrastructure. Polymers differ greatly from other materials, such as ceramics or metals, based upon the types of bonding. Metals bond metallically, creating a sea of electrons, and ceramics generally bond ionically, strongly tying electrons to lattice points. Polymers bond covalently in carbon chains, which (in general) make their properties more variable due to the possibilities of arrangement

  • Advantages And Disadvantages Of Adhesives

    970 Words  | 2 Pages

    Due to stringent regulations regarding the emission of volatile organic compounds, there is a demand to develop fast setting solvent free resins. Light cured materials have many advantages over conventional chemically cured adhesives, including consistent handling characteristics, single paste application, and easy removal of excess material and extended working time.1 UV-curable adhesives appear to be ideal candidates since such liquid formulations contain no organic solvents and are readily transformed
