Influence of polycarboxylate superplasticizers (PCs) with different functional units on the hydration heat and hydration products of C₃A-gypsum was investigated. Three kinds of PCs with different monomers were discussed. It was seen that PCs mainly shortened the induction stage of C₃A-gypsum hydration, and the amount of remaining gypsum was related to the duration of the induction stage. The second heat flow peak of the sample with PCs was higher than that of the blank. Moreover, PC intercalation occurred during the hydration.

Statement Of Problem: Excess cement in implant-supported restorations can lead to peri-implant diseases, and its removal remains a clinical challenge. The optimum method of minimizing excess cement is unclear.
Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare 3 cementation techniques and 3 cement types and measure excess cement.

Fluidity influences the use of backfill materials in the mining industry. A new backfill material-modified magnesium slag-based backfill materials (MFPB)-is made from solid waste from coal and metallurgy. We focus on the compatibility of polycarboxylate water reducing agent (SP) with MFPB and its effect on MFPB performance.

Objectives: To compare the use of orifice barriers (OB) in root-filled teeth (RFT) between specialist endodontic practitioners (SEP) and general and other specialist practitioners (GDP+), and identify common materials, reasons for selection, and techniques.
Methods: An online survey was distributed to SEP and GDP+ practising in Australia. Demographic and multiple-choice questions relating to material selection and technique choices were asked to evaluate and relate usage patterns to practising and training backgrounds.

An addition of carbon nanostructures to cement paste is problematic due to the difficulties in obtaining homogenous mixtures. The paper reports on a more effective way of mixing carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH) in cement pastes. The additional biological impact of the studied nanomodified cement was analyzed in the case of two moss species' vitality.
