FRCs (Fiber-Reinforced Composites) are materials that are being used increasingly more often in dentistry as an alternative to traditional restorations made of ceramics or metals. The aim of this study was to carry out a comparative analysis of the strength parameters of a light-curable dental composite reinforced with one single band and two single bands of artificial fibers. The specimens for the strength tests were prepared in accordance with the guidelines of the PN-EN ISO 4049:2019-07 international standard. The test material covered specimens of composite reinforced with single (one or two) bands of fibers. The following bands of fibers were used: carbon (WGL), aramid (AMD) and hybrid carbon-aramid (WGL-AMD). The presence of one single band of aramid fibers caused a three-fold increase in deflection, with a simultaneous increase in the Young's modulus of over 140%. The flexural strength of specimens reinforced with one single band of aramid fibers was higher by 280% than that control group specimens (KONT). To summarize the performed tests, the incorporation of carbon, aramid and hybrid carbon-aramid fibers into organic matrix has a significant impact on the values of the mechanical parameters of dental composites. The results indicate that particular attention should be paid to aramid fibers, which have rarely been used in dentistry so far.

Fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) possess a remarkable strength-to-weight ratio, making them ideal light-weighing alternative materials of metals used in automotive, aerospace, and outdoor equipment applications, but their recycling is challenging. Chemically recyclable thermoset polymers can enable fiber recovery and reuse; however, challenges remain in the separation and purification of depolymerized small molecules for efficient polymer recycling. To this end, a series of liquid resins for chemically recyclable polymer networks is designed based on phthalic anhydride, a widely produced and inexpensive chemical.

Agricultural waste or agro-waste, including natural fibers and particles from various crop parts, is increasingly recognized as a significant contributor to environmental issues. However, from a circular economy perspective, these materials present an opportunity to be repurposed into new, eco-friendly products. The present study, specifically focuses on understanding the effect of different factors, such as the particulate loading and the size (coir and hBN - 1 to 5 wt%; Coir Powder size (100-200 μm) of the particles on composite's corrosion rates and water absorption properties.
