Statement of problem Secondary caries is a major factor in the failure of dental restorations . However, studies on the fabrication of acid-resistant and antibacterial dentin to improve dentin bonding are sparse. Purpose The purpose of this in vitro study was to compare the effects of 2 types of fluoride-containing etchants on dentin bonding and explore the feasibility of formulating an altered dentin substrate to improve dentin bonding. Material and methods NaF-containing and SnF 2 -containing etchants were developed by adding sodium fluoride and stannous fluoride to a 35% phosphoric acid aqueous solution. Two groups (N1 and N2) containing NaF, 10 and 30 mg/mL respectively, and 2 groups (S1 and S2) containing SnF 2, 18.6 and 55.8 mg/mL respectively, were formulated. The etchant of the control group (C) was 35% phosphoric acid gel. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometry (EDS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), microhardness, antierosion, and antibacterial tests were performed on the treated dentin. Moreover, the microtensile bond strength (µTBS) of each group was tested, and the fracture mode was determined after testing. Statistical analysis was performed with the 2-way ANOVA test (α=.05). Results The exposed collagen fiber was observed in group C, and minerals were formed on the dentin in the experimental groups. SEM, FTIR, and the microhardness test indicated more remineralization in the SnF 2 -containing etchant groups. The µTBS of S1 (77.5 ±10.36 MPa) was the highest in all groups, and group C (38.5 ±9.01 MPa) was the lowest. Moreover, the antierosion and antibacterial properties of the S2 group were the best among all groups ( P <.05). Conclusions Compared with NaF-containing etchant, SnF 2 -containing etchant could improve the dentin substrate, increase remineralization, improve bonding strength, and enhance antibacterial ability, especially by increasing resistance to acid erosion.

An addition-cure liquid silicone rubber (ALSR) with ureido-containing MQ silicone resin (U-MTQ) was prepared by hydrosilylation with platinum catalyst (Pt). ALSR samples were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and thermogravimetry coupled with infrared spectroscopy (TG-FTIR), and the char layers of ALSR samples after inclined plate tracking and erosion test (IPT) were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The effects of Pt content (5–100 ppm) on the curing characteristics, mechanical properties and tracking and erosion resistance of ALSR were investigated. It was found that the cure rate increased with increase of Pt content. When the Pt content was 10 ppm or 15 ppm, the ALSR had excellent tracking and erosion resistance, all specimens could pass the 4.5 kV level in IPT, and the erosion rate was only 0.13% and 0.15%, respectively. ALSR samples possessed optimum mechanical properties and thermal stability when the Pt content was 15 ppm. TG-FTIR results showed that ALSR generated less carbonyl compounds (CH 2 O) and cyclic oligomers but more methane (CH 4 ) when the Pt content was 15 ppm. This demonstrated that there were lower levels of the oxidation of methyl groups and the main chain unzipping degradation of ALSR, and more homolysis of Si-CH 3 during the degradation. The XPS results also showed that the macromolecular radicals would further cross-link to form a firm Si-C ceramic barrier to protect ALSR samples under Pt catalysis and high temperature, thus the tracking and erosion resistance of ALSR could be improved.

The (La0.5Eu0.25Y0.25)2Zr2O7 (LEYZ) ceramic powder for spraying was prepared and synthesised by combining spray granulation and solid phase reaction phase, and a double ceramic layer structure with (La0.5Eu0.25Y0.25)2Zr2O7 ceramic surface coating and YSZ intermediate coating was prepared by atmospheric plasma spraying. Experimental characterisation revealed that the moulding state of spray granulated powders was significantly influenced by the solid content. When the solid content is small, the viscosity of the slurry is insufficient, and the prepared powder has poor formability and small overall particle size. When the solid content is large, the slurry is too viscous, which easily leads to unfavourable conditions such as sticky walls. The best formability of the pelletised powder was obtained with a solid content of 55 wt-% and a binder content of 2.0 wt-%. Compared with La2Zr2O7 (LZ) ceramics, the fracture toughness of the rare-earth co-doped modified LEYZ ceramic coating was increased by 8.4% and the bond strength was increased by 49.9%, showing good toughness and crack resistance. Moreover, LEYZ coating has significantly better resistance to solid phase particle erosion than LZ coating, with 46.3% and 45.4% reduction in erosion rate at 45° and 90°, respectively.

In order to tailor the surface properties of propellants to meet the requirements of progressive burning and anti-erosion performance of propellant for high loading density tank guns, the surface migration and enrichment effects of fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposite additives with low surface energy toward the air/solid interface of propellants were investigated. Fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposites were prepared by emulsion polymerization and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, TEM, and TGA to obtain the information of chemical groups, morphology, and thermal stability. The propellant samples containing the fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposite additives were manufactured by an extrusion process. The migration effect of the fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposite additives was observed by SEM and X-ray energy dispersive analysis. The influence factors on the migration and enrichment properties of fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposite additives in propellants were discussed. The results showed that there exists a gradient distribution of fluorine element in the additive modified propellants, indicating a significant surface enrichment of fluorinated groups inside the propellants. The composition of propellants and the chain structure of fluoropolymer also have a significant influence on the migration and enrichment properties of fluorinated TiO 2 nanocomposite additives in propellants. This study can bring forward the research of smart construction of slowing burning and anti-wear layers in the propellants.

A morphologically stable silicon oil microcapsule base polystyrene as shell modified with TiO 2 and Si 3 N 4 nanoparticles was synthesized, characterized and applied as an inhibitor for high energy propellant to reduce erosion of gun barrel. The composite microcapsules were obtained by an eco-friendly method. Embedding heat-resistant TiO 2 and Si 3 N 4 nanoparticles in polystyrene shell enhances the reliability of polymeric shell. The anti-erosion effect of composite microcapsules for high energy propellant was investigated by using an erosion tester. Results showed that the erosion property of high energy propellant with composite microcapsule was significantly decreased when compared to control sample (without microcapsules). It showed a decrease of 20.6 % in erosion mass when 7 wt.% of composite microcapsules were added to the high energy propellant. Moreover, the anti-erosion efficiency of composite additives exhibited an increasing trend with the increase of their contents. The pressure and time history confirmed that the composite microcapsules also have ability to adjust the combustion performance of high energy propellants. The developed silicon oil microcapsule shows a potential application for propellant erosion additive.

Glass fiber reinforced polymer coatings (GFRPC) are used to protect steel structures in harsh marine environments due to high mechanical strength and chemical stability. The composite coating not only suffers from impact damage by seawater and sediment but also experiences corrosion damage in the splash zone. However, the GF has weak interfacial adhesion with polymer resins due to the chemical inertia and smooth surface, which limits the service lifespan of GFPRC. Hence, ZSM-5 zeolite were in situ prepared on the surface of glass fibers by hydrothermal synthesis, and 2-mercaptobenzimidazole (MBI) was further adsorbed to obtain difunctional hybrid glass fibers (ZGFM) to enhance the interfacial adhesion strength of glass fiber/resin and also the erosion resistance and anti-corrosion ability of composite coatings. Compared to GF/EP, the interfacial shear strength of ZGFM/EP was increased by 104.39 %. After immersion under an alternating hydrostatic pressure of 20 MPa for 12 days, the impedance value of the ZGFM/EP composite coating remained at 6.40 × 10 9 Ω•cm 2 , demonstrating outstanding deep-sea anti-corrosion performance. Following the erosion test, the ZGFM/EP exhibited a reduction in mass loss and volume loss by 10.65 % and 12.55 %, respectively, in comparison to the pure EP coating. The excellent interfacial strength between ZGFM and EP ensured effective stress transfer, which prevented crack propagation, thus enhancing the mechanical properties and erosion resistance of the composite coating. Meanwhile, electrochemical experiment proves glass fiber with MBI loaded obviously inhibits the corrosion reaction.

Reinforced concrete structures in the marine environment face serious corrosion risks. Coating protection and adding corrosion inhibitors are the most economical and effective methods. In this study, a nano-composite anti-corrosion filler with a mass ratio of CeO2:GO = 4:1 was prepared by hydrothermally growing cerium oxide on the surface of graphene oxide. The filler was mixed with pure epoxy resin at a mass fraction of 0.5% to prepare a nano-composite epoxy coating. The basic properties of the prepared coating were evaluated from the aspects of surface hardness, adhesion grade, and anti-corrosion performance on Q235 low carbon steel subjected to simulated seawater and simulated concrete pore solutions. Results showed that after 90 days of service, the corrosion current density of the nanocomposite coating mixed with corrosion inhibitor was the lowest (Icorr= 1.001 × 10−9A/cm2), and the protection efficiency was up to 99.92%. This study provides a theoretical foundation for solving the corrosion problem of Q235 low carbon steel in the marine environment.Keywords:graphene oxide;cerium dioxide;nanocomposite coating;simulated concrete pore liquid;erosion resistance

It is of great significance and challenge to efficiently improve the tracking and erosion resistance of silicone rubber along with the growing requirements in the field of outdoor high voltage insulation. In this work, we herein proposed an effective way to address this issue by incorporating vinyltriethoxysilane (ViTES) and layered Mg–Al double hydroxide (LDH) into high temperature vulcanized silicone rubber (HTVSR). ViTES/LDH notably enhanced the tracking and erosion resistance of HTVSR. With addition of 3.33 phr ViTES and 5.00 phr LDH, the anti-tracking performance of HTVSR reached the 1A 4.5 level, and the eroded mass was merely 0.3%. The results of scanning electron microscopy and equilibrium swelling showed that ViTES substantially improved the interfacial interaction between HTVSR and LDH and the crosslinking density of HTVSR, and enhanced the dispersion of LDH sheets in the HTVSR matrix. The possible synergistic suppression mechanism of ViTES/LDH on the tracking and erosion of HTVSR was further studied and demonstrated by the plasma irradiation analysis, thermogravimetry and thermogravimetry-Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. It was indicated that under the high voltage arcing discharge, LDH facilitated the formation of a dense barrier layer consisting of bimetal mixed oxides on the HTVSR surface, exerting outstanding lamellar barrier effect. The further degradation and the generation as well as development of electrical tracking were efficiently suppressed. Our findings provided a new approach to fabricate silicone rubber with excellent tracking and erosion resistance.

Calcium sulfate (CS) is a commonly used filling material for bone defects; however, its mechanical strength requires further enhancement. The hydration process of CS significantly influences its mechanical properties. This study aims to improve these properties by incorporating carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ) to optimize the hydration process of calcium sulfate hemihydrate (CSH). After adding CMC, the content of CSH in the hydrated material significantly increased, while the amount of calcium sulfate dihydrate (CSD) decreased. In the XPS analysis, the Ca 2p peaks exhibited notable shifts following the addition of CMC and SiO 2 . The mechanisms by which the hydration process influences mechanical strength were further analyzed. It was found that Ca 2+ ions from CSH chelated with CMC, while SiO 2 formed Si-O-Ca bonds with Ca 2+ , both affecting the hydration process of CSH in different ways. The optimal addition amounts of CMC and SiO 2 were both determined to be 1.5 %. Compared to pure CS, the mechanical properties of the experimental group increased by 520 %, rising from 4.28 MPa to 22.25 MPa. Additionally, the injectivity and erosion resistance were improved. All materials showed no cytotoxicity in hemolysis and cell experiments. In summary, this study demonstrates how the mechanical strength of CS can be enhanced by incorporating CMC and SiO 2 to influence its hydration process.
