Published: July 2018

This work reports that abrasive blasting of a structural steel results in significant retention of garnet abrasive residues. A comparative study of the adsorption behavior of a number of organic species, relevant to paint components and additives, onto the surfaces of garnet and S355 steel from nonaqueous solutions is also presented. Areas per adsorbed molecule, estimated from the isotherm data, suggest a range of molecular orientations on the surfaces. Pronounced differences in the adsorption strength to the garnet and steel were observed, particularly that most additives bind more strongly to steel than to garnet. Surface characterization data from acid-base titrations, photoelectron spectroscopy, and backscattered electron diffraction were used to rationalize the adsorption data obtained. The ramifications of these findings for particular industrial processes, with regards the strength of paint adhesion and paint additive formulations, are highlighted.

Purpose: To perform vertical bone augmentation on rat parietal bone by coating the inner surface of dense polytetrafluoroethylene (d-PTFE) domes with hydroxyapatite (HA) using Erbium Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (Er:YAG) pulsed laser deposition in a rat model.

Methods: The d-PTFE plate surface, α-tricalcium phosphate (α-TCP) coating, and HA coating were measured using scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction to confirm the replacement of α-TCP with HA via high-pressure steam sterilization. The dome was glued to the center of the rat parietal bone and closed with periosteal and epithelial sutures.

Article Synopsis
  • PVDF is a promising material for solid polymer electrolytes because of its good thermal stability and wide electrochemical range, but it faces issues with poor ionic conductivity due to the formation of a harmful alkaline layer on garnet fillers.
  • LiOH on the surface of these fillers contributes to the breakdown of PVDF chains, leading to unwanted chemical bonds; this can be mitigated by treating the fillers with acetic acid to create alkali-free garnets.
  • The modified PVDF electrolyte shows significantly improved ionic conductivity and a wider electrochemical window, resulting in better performance for solid-state lithium batteries, evidenced by higher discharge capacity and cycle stability.

Successful Multi-Modal Laser Intervention and Histopathological Evaluation of Multiple Glomangiomas.

Lasers Surg Med

December 2024

Department of Dermatology, Veterans Health Administration, San Antonio, Texas, USA.

Objectives: Glomangiomas are benign vascular malformations that exist within the spectrum of glomuvenous malformations which consist of varying amounts of glomus cells, vascular spaces, and smooth muscle. Glomangiomas are often treated due to associated pain, particularly when located on pressure areas such as the back or extensor surfaces, which can cause difficulty with certain activities and occupational functions. Histologically glomangiomas consist of prominent dilated vascular spaces lined by glomus cells typically situated in the deep-dermis to subcutaneous fat which limits treatment to modalities capable of reaching the depth of the tumor including excision, sclerotherapy, and laser therapy.

Background and objective Applying different hygiene tools for implant maintenance alters surface configurations, impacting bacterial adhesion on titanium implant surfaces and potentially leading to peri-implant diseases. This study aimed to assess the alterations in surface topography of titanium implant fixtures after utilizing hygiene instruments such as airflow; erbium, chromium-doped: yttrium, scandium, gallium, and garnet (Er, Cr: YSGG) laser; and titanium brush, under scanning electron microscope (SEM) observation. Materials and methods We employed an experimental laboratory study design for this research, involving 20 MegaGen ST titanium implant fixtures (MegaGen Implant Co.
