Modern electronics face several challenges during operation, such as interference of disruptive electromagnetic signals and high temperatures within a limited space. Both electromagnetic interference (EMI) and thermal management could be tackled simultaneously by employing smart efficient materials with high thermal and electrical conductivity. A dual-curing epoxy system, a new subset of adaptable materials, could potentially solve those challenges, with the proper selection of the reinforcement. Moreover, its manufacturing and synthesis process, which involves a sequential curing stage, constitute an attractive, selective, and fast methodology. The thiol-epoxy chemistry allows the synthesis of an epoxy system with high shape-memory capabilities while retaining optimal mechanical properties. Herein, dual-curing epoxy systems reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) are manufactured. The influence of the GNPs content is evaluated, which greatly increases upon loading while retaining a high shape-memory fixation and recovery rates (near 99%). A maximum EMI shielding efficiency of 24 dB is achieved for the higher GNPs content, which is endowed by the high electrical conductivity of the system. Moreover, a modelization of the near-field and far-field EMI shielding is reported, which agrees with experimental observation. This report shows the potential and multifunctional nature of dual-curing epoxy composites for EMI shielding and shape-memory-related application.

Unlabelled: Rehabilitating teeth after root canal treatment often requires the use of glass fiber posts (GFPs) to retain the final restorations, so the choice of resin cement is critical for bond strength (BS) and treatment success.
Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different GFP systems on BS to intraradicular dentin using two dual-curing resin cement types.
Materials And Method: Thirty bovine incisors with wide canals were filled endodontically with gutta-percha and epoxy resin sealer.

Herein, a novel glycidyl carbamate functional epoxy resin (GCE) is synthesized by the additional reaction of the isocyanate group of tolylene diisocyanate (TDI) with the hydroxyl group of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) and glycidol. The successful synthesis of the GCE is confirmed by FT-IR and H NMR spectroscopy. Furthermore, a dual-curing adhesive system is developed using acrylic acid and trimethylolpropane triacrylate with varying GCE contents, and its adhesive performance is assessed by testing adhesive strength, pencil hardness, and surface energy.

Objectives: To compare infiltration, sealing and microleakage in root dentin with a self-conditioning adhesive system combined with dual curing resin (resin-based cement) to a conventional epoxy-resin-based sealer using confocal microscopy imaging.
Methods: 26 roots were enlarged and disinfected. Dentin tubules of 24 teeth were labelled with a red fluorophore (Rhodamine B) (two samples served as controls).

Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the thermal properties of epoxy-acrylate blends specifically for LCD 3D printing, examining how a reactive monofunctional epoxy diluent affects these properties.
- The diluent, chosen for its low viscosity and reactivity, was added in varying amounts (15-25 wt%), and both thermal and photocuring processes were tested at different temperatures.
- Results indicated that controlling the diluent content and curing temperature improved the thermomechanical properties of the resin, significantly reducing the printing time for a reference part compared to earlier formulations.
