AI Article Synopsis
- Glasses are formed by rapidly cooling liquids to prevent crystalline structures and are traditionally categorized into inorganic, organic, and metallic types.
- They play a crucial role in various applications such as safe containers and enhancing living spaces, but designing glasses with precise structures remains a challenge.
- Recent advancements have led to the identification of a fourth category, metal-organic or hybrid glasses, which are created through melt-quenching new materials, and this review explores their potential in chemistry, physics, and engineering.
Article Abstract
Glasses are typically formed by melt-quenching, that is, cooling of a liquid on a timescale fast enough to avoid ordering to a crystalline state, and formerly thought to comprise three categories: inorganic (non-metallic), organic and metallic. Their impact is huge, providing safe containers, allowing comfortable and bright living spaces and even underlying the foundations of modern telecommunication. This impact is tempered by the inability to chemically design glasses with precise, well-defined and tunable structures: the literal quest for order in disorder. However, metal-organic or hybrid glasses are now considered to belong to a fourth category of glass chemistry. They have recently been demonstrated upon melt-quenching of coordination polymer, metal-organic framework and hybrid perovskite framework solids. In this Review, we discuss hybrid glasses through the lens of both crystalline metal-organic framework and glass chemistry, physics and engineering, to provide a vision for the future of this class of materials.

Surface Roughness and Color Stability of Conventional and Bulk-Fill Resin Composite with S-PRG Fillers After Coffee Exposure: An in-vitro Study.
Clin Cosmet Investig Dent
January 2025
Department of Restorative Dentistry, Faculdade de Odontologia de Piracicaba, Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Piracicaba, SP, Brazil.
Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the in vitro effects of coffee exposure on the color and roughness of conventional and bulk-fill resin composites, with and without surface pre-reacted glass-ionomer (S-PRG) filler.
Methodology: Forty-eight cylindrical samples (Ø6 mm × 2 mm) were prepared and categorized as follows (n = 12 per group): conventional nano-hybrid (Tetric N-Ceram, Ivoclar); nano-hybrid with S-PRG filler (Beautifil II, Shofu); bulk-fill (Tetric N-Ceram Bulk Fill, Ivoclar); and bulk-fill with S-PRG filler (Beautifil Bulk Restorative, Shofu). The samples were assessed for surface roughness (Ra, μm), color coordinates (CIE Lb), and overall color change (ΔE, ΔE).
Clinical and radiographic evaluation of silver diamine fluoride versus mineral trioxide aggregate as indirect pulp capping agents in deeply carious first permanent molars a randomized clinical trial.

Oral Radiology, Faculty of Dentistry, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt.
Aim: Clinical and radiographic evaluation of SDF versus MTA as indirect pulp capping agents in deeply carious first permanent molars.
Methodology: This study was conducted on (30) first permanent molars indicated for indirect pulp capping (IPC) randomly allocated to either SDF or MTA groups (n = 15). The molars were finally restored with glass hybrid glass ionomer restoration.
Development of a sandwich-type electrochemical DNA sensor based on CeO/AuPt nanoprobes for highly sensitive detection of hepatitis B virus DNA.
Bioelectrochemistry

The Key Laboratory of Biomedical Material, School of Life Science and Technology, Xinxiang Medical University, Xinxiang 453003 China. Electronic address:
To provide accurate diagnostic evidence for early hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection-related diseases, this study targeted HBV DNA as an analyte, where a sandwich-type electrochemical DNA sensor based on gold nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide (Au NPs/ERGO) and cerium oxide/gold-platinum nanoparticles (CeO/AuPt NPs) was constructed. Au NPs/ERGO composite nanomaterials were first synthesized on the surface of a glass carbon electrode using electrochemical co-reduction, which significantly improved the specific surface area and electrical conductivity of the electrode. Further specific hybridization of target HBV-DNA was performed by combining capture probe DNA (S1-DNA) bound to AuNPs/ERGO with CeO/AuPt modified signal probe DNA (S2-DNA).

BMC Oral Health
January 2025
Faculty of Dentistry, Basic Medical Sciences Department, Ankara University, Ankara, 06560, Turkey.
Background: This study aimed to comparatively evaluate the effects of different cavity conditioners on internal adaptation (IA) of glass ionomer-based restorative materials applied to primary teeth.
Methods: 80 extracted primary second molar teeth were randomly assigned to four different cavity conditioner groups [10% polyacrylic acid, 20% polyacrylic acid, 17% ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA), 35% phosphoric acid]. Class V cavities were prepared on the buccal surfaces and relevant cavity conditioners were applied, and the samples in each cavity conditioner group were randomly assigned to glass hybrid (GHR) or conventional glass ionomer restoratives (CGIR).
Examining the Mechanical and Thermal Properties of a Novel Hybrid Thermoplastic Rubber Composite Made with Polypropylene, Polybutadiene, S-Glass Fibre, and Flax Fibre.

Department of Mechanical Engineering, PSG Institute of Technology and Applied Research Coimbatore, Coimbatore 641062, India.
In this work, twin-screw extruder and compression moulding techniques were utilized to fabricate polymer blends: polypropylene (PP), polybutadiene (PB), and composites using glass fibre (GF) and flax fibre (FF). During fabrication, the polymer ratios maintained between PP and PB were 90:10, 80:20, and 70:30. Likewise, the composites were fabricated by varying the ratios between the PP, PB, and GF, which were 90PP:10PB:10GF, 80PP:20PB:10GF, and 70PP:30PB:10GF.
