There are many methods widely applied in the engineering of biomaterials to improve the mechanical properties of the dental composites. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of modification of dental composites with liquid rubber on their mechanical properties, degree of conversion, viscosity, and cytotoxicity. Both flow and packable composite consisted of a mixture of Bis-GMA, TEGDMA, UDMA, and EBADMA resins reinforced with 60 and 78 wt.% ceramic filler, respectively. It was demonstrated that liquid rubber addition significantly increased the fracture toughness by 9% for flow type and 8% for condensable composite. The influence of liquid rubber on flexural strength was not statistically significant. The addition of the toughening agent significantly reduced Young’s modulus by 7% and 9%, respectively, while increasing deformation at breakage. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) observations allowed to determine the mechanisms of toughening the composites reinforced with ceramic particles. These mechanisms included bridging the crack edges, blocking the crack tip by particles and dissipation of fracture energy by deflection of the cracks on larger particles. The degree of conversion increased after modification, mainly due to a decrease in the matrix resin viscosity. It was also shown that all dental materials were nontoxic according to ISO 10993-5, indicating that modified materials have great potential for commercialization and clinical applications.

The effect of interface on the mechanical properties of glass fibre/phenolic composites is discussed in this paper. Standard and silane modified resins are used as matrix, and a yarn and two kinds of rovings with different sizing are used as reinforcement. The effect of fibre on wetting is evaluated, and it is shown that sizing specially developed for phenolic resin is quite effective to improve resin impregnation into the fibre bundle. The mechanical properties are evaluated by using the resin impregnated unidirectional fibre bundle composite specimens. The effects of resin and fibre on strength and crack propagation are evaluated by the lateral compression test. The type of the fibre affected the dispersion of fibres in the matrix resin, and the roving developed for phenolic resin gave the best dispersion of the fibre. This led the high mechanical properties and high resistance to the crack initiation.

Al2O3-PES-SPEEK/MBAE composites has been prepared, polymer matrix (MBAE) was obtained with 4,4’-diamino diphenyl methane bismaleimide (BMI) as reaction monomer, 3,3’-diallyl bisphenol A (BBA) and bisphenol A diallyl ether (BBE) as the reactive diluent, and two kinds of thermal plastic resins (polyether sulfone PES and sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) SPEEK) as the reinforcements, nano-alumina (Al2O3) prepared by Sol–Gel method as the filler. The microstructure of SPEEK, Al2O3 and the composites were characterized, the mechanical properties and heat resistance of the composites were also studied and analyzed. The results reveal that there are sulfonic acid groups in SPEEK structure and the microstructure is more loose, and the degree of sulfonation is about 41.3%. Al2O3 is a nano-sized short-fibrous crystal with hydroxyl groups on its surface. The micromorphology of Al2O3-PES-SPEEK/MBAE composites show that the proper amount of PES, SPEEK and Al2O3 are uniformly dispersed in the matrix resin, which improves the fracture surface morphology of the composite, the shape of the section is fish scale and the fracture cracks are irregular and divergent, and the composites are ductile fracture. The mechanical properties indicate that the flexural strength, flexural modulus and impact strength of the composite is the maximum value 172.9 MPa, 4.7 GPa and 21.4 kJ/m2, which is 73.1%, 74.1% and 125.3%, higher than the matrix resin, respectively, when the PES content is 3 wt%, 2 wt% SPEEK and 3 wt% Al2O3 in the composite. At this time, the thermal decomposition temperature of the composite material is 453.5°C, which is 15.4°C higher than that of the matrix resin, and the mechanical properties and heat-resistance properties of the Al2O3-PES-SPEEK/MBAE composite are significantly improved.

This research deals with the mechanical properties, microstructure, and interrelations of triple nanocomposite based on PET/EPDM/Nanoclay. These properties were examined in different percentages of PET/EPDM blend with compatibilizer (Styrene-Ethylene/Butylene-Styrene)-G-(Maleic anhydrate) (SEBS-g-MAH). Results showed that the addition of 15% SEBS-g-MAH improved the toughness and impact strength of this nanocomposite. SEM micrographs indicated the most stable fuzzy microstructure in a 50/50 mixture of scattered phases of EPDM/SEBS-g-MAH. The effects of percentages of 1, 3, 5, 7 nanoclay Cloisite 30B (C30B) on the improvement of the properties were evaluated. With the addition of nano clay, the toughness and impact strength was reduced. Thermal destruction of nanoclay in processing temperature led to the decreasing dispersion of clay plates in the matrix and a reduction in the distances of nano clay plates in the composite compared to pure nano clay. XRD and TEM analysis was used to demonstrate the results. By adding 1% of nanoclay to the optimal sample, maximum stiffness, and Impact strength, among other nanocomposites, was achieved.

Green biodegradable plastics have come into focus as an alternative to restricted plastic products. In this paper, continuous long sisal fiber (SF)/polylactic acid (PLA) premixes were prepared by an extrusion-rolling blending process, and then unidirectional continuous long sisal fiber-reinforced PLA composites (LSFCs) were prepared by compression molding to explore the effect of long fiber on the mechanical properties of sisal fiber-reinforced composites. As a comparison, random short sisal fiber-reinforced PLA composites (SSFCs) were prepared by open milling and molding. The experimental results show that continuous long sisal fiber/PLA premixes could be successfully obtained from this pre-blending process. It was found that the presence of long sisal fibers could greatly improve the tensile strength of LSFC material along the fiber extension direction and slightly increase its tensile elongation. Continuous long fibers in LSFCs could greatly participate in supporting the load applied to the composite material. However, when comparing the mechanical properties of the two composite materials, the poor compatibility between the fiber and the matrix made fiber’s reinforcement effect not well reflected in SSFCs. Similarly, the flexural performance and impact performance of LSFCs had been improved considerably versus SSFCs.

Poly(arylene ether sulfone) (PES)–titanium dioxide (TiO2) hybrid membranes were prepared via solution blending method using TiO2 nanoparticles as inorganic filler. The chemical structure and thermal stability of the matrix polymer were characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance, Fourier transform infrared, differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric analysis. The crystal structure, morphology, mechanical properties, and gas separation performance of hybrid membranes were characterized in detail. As shown in scanning electron microscopic images, TiO2 nanoparticles dispersed homogeneously in the matrix. Although the mechanical properties of hybrid membranes decreased certainly compared to the pure PES membranes, they are strong enough for gas separation in this study. All gas permeability coefficients of PES-TiO2 hybrid membranes were higher than pure PES membranes, attributed to the nanogap caused by TiO2 nanoparticles, for instance, oxygen and nitrogen permeability coefficients of Hybrid-3 (consists of PES with 4-amino-phenyl pendant group and hexafluoroisopropyl (Am-PES)-20 and TiO2 nanoparticles, 5 wt%) increased from 2.57 and 0.33 to 5.88 and 0.63, respectively. In addition, the separation factor increased at the same time attributed to the stimulative transfer effect caused by the interaction of hydroxyl groups on the TiO2 nanoparticle and polar carbon dioxide molecules.

The article presents the study of alumina nanoparticles’ (nanofibers) concentration effect on the strength properties of pure nickel. The samples were obtained by spark plasma sintering of previously mechanically activated metal powders. The dependence of the grain size and the relative density of compacts on the number of nanofibers was investigated. It was found that with an increase in the concentration of nanofibers, the average size of the matrix particles decreased. The effects of the nanoparticle concentration (0.01–0.1 wt.%) on the elastic modulus and tensile strength were determined for materials at 25 °C, 400 °C, and 750 °C. It was shown that with an increase in the concentration of nanofibers, a 10–40% increase in the elastic modulus and ultimate tensile strength occurred. A comparison of the mechanical properties of nickel in a wide range of temperatures, obtained in this work with materials made by various technologies, is carried out. A description of nanofibers’ mechanisms of influence on the structure and mechanical properties of nickel is given. The possible impact of impurity phases on the properties of nickel is estimated. The tendency of changes in the mechanical properties of nickel, depending on the concentration of nanofibers, is shown.
