Three-body wear of 3D printed temporary materials

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the three-body wear of different additively manufactured temporary materials, one temporary PMMA material for CAD/CAM milling and one resin-based composite for direct restorations as a control group by using an ACTA machine.MethodsSpecimens (n = 8) of the 3D printing materials 3Delta temp, NextDent C&B, Freeprint temp were additively manufactured by DLP 3D printer. Postprocessing was carried out according to the manufacturer's specifications. Telio CAD were cut out of blocks, Tetric EvoCeram was applied directly and light cured. Three-body wear was simulated with an ACTA machine. Data were statistically analysed (ANOVA, post hoc test: Tukey, p < 0.05). The worn surfaces of the specimens were examined with a FE-SEM.ResultsThe average mean wear was 50 ± 15 μm for Tetric EvoCeram < 62 ± 4 μm for 3Delta temp < 236 ± 31 μm for Telio CAD < 255 ± 13 μm for NextDent C&B < 257 ± 24 μm for Freeprint temp. After 200,000 cycles, the wear and wear rates for Tetric EvoCeram and 3Delta temp were significantly lower than those for the other materials. SEM revealed that 3Delta temp has a higher filler proportion than the other 3D printing materials but less than Tetric EvoCeram.SignificanceThe filler content influences the wear behaviour of additively manufactured materials as well as dental restorative composite materials. While most 3D printing materials have a low inorganic filler load, which qualifies the materials for temporary use only, one 3D printing material has an optimized composition that would qualify the material for longer clinical service time if wear is considered as the outcome variable.     

Avian mud nest architecture by self-secreted saliva

Mud nests built by swallows (Hirundinidae) and phoebes (Sayornis) are stable granular piles attached to cliffs, walls, or ceilings. Although these birds have been observed to mix saliva with incohesive mud granules, how such biopolymer solutions provide the nest with sufficient strength to support the weight of the residents as well as its own remains elusive. Here, we elucidate the mechanism of strong granular cohesion by the viscoelastic paste of bird saliva through a combination of theoretical analysis and experimental measurements in both natural and artificial nests. Our mathematical model considering the mechanics of mud nest construction allows us to explain the biological observation that all mud-nesting bird species should be lightweight.

Bird nests come in a variety of forms made from diverse building materials (1, 2). Each type of bird nest is subjected to mechanical constraints imposed by material characteristics. To overcome these constraints, birds have devised brilliant architectural technologies, which provide inspiration for a novel materials processing scheme and help us to better understand animal behavior.For instance, some birds including storks (Cicioniidae) and eagles (Accipitidae) build nests by piling up hard filamentary materials such as twigs, harnessing their friction as the cohesion mechanism (3). Weaverbirds (Ploceidae) weave soft filamentary materials such as grass and fine leaves into a woven nest tied to a tree branch. Some bird species use their own saliva in nest building, which Darwin considered an example of natural selection (4). An extreme case is the Edible-nest Swiftlets, which build their nest purely of self-secreted saliva so that it can be attached to cliff walls and cave ceilings where the above twig piles and tied leaves are not allowed (5).Swallows (Hirundinidae), phoebes (Sayornis), and other mud nesters have developed a unique building material, a mixture of mud and their own saliva, in contrast to those made of purely collected or self-secreted materials (6) (Fig. 1). During construction, mud nesters repeatedly pile a beakful of wet mud on the nest, and liquid bridges are formed in the nest due to evaporation. While building a nest usually takes several weeks, a transition from wet to dry structures can occur within a few hours. Hence, the capillary forces of liquid bridges temporarily provide cohesion such as those in sandcastles. However, unlike sandcastles, dehydrated saliva comes into play for permanent cohesion after complete evaporation (SI Appendix, Supplementary Note 1).Open in a separate windowFig. 1.A nest of the barn swallow (H. rustica).

(C) Chemical composition analysis of the surface shown in B by EDS. The red area indicates a region containing mostly carbon atoms, which may originate from bird saliva. The green area indicates a region containing mostly the silicon atoms of clay particles.Mud itself cannot confer sufficient cohesion and adhesion in mud nests. The ability of mud nests to bear tensile loads originates from the gluing agent in the bird''s saliva, which permeates into granules as a liquid and binds them as a solid after solvent evaporation (6–8) (SI Appendix, Supplementary Note 2). The gluing agent is called mucin, a family of large glycoproteins that are ubiquitous in animal organs and form a mucus gel with versatile functionality (9). Fig. 1B shows the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) image of a barn swallow’s mud nest consisting of platelet clay particles and larger grains. Energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) mapping image of Fig. 1C clearly shows regions corresponding to organic material which is presumed to be from bird’s saliva.Of particular interest and worth biophysical investigation are the tensile strength of the mud nest with hardened saliva, design principles associated with the saliva-originated strength, and the resulting effects on the evolution of these mud-nesting birds. Principles behind cohesion in granular materials, such as wet sands (10), cemented powder aggregates (11), construction materials (12), and pharmaceutical tablets (13), have been studied to date, exploring the stress transmission, elasticity, and failure (14–18), and the formation of solidified bridges (19–21). However, little attention has been paid to the cohesion effects of self-secreted polymer materials upon evaporation and the biologically constructed granular architecture like birds’ mud nests. Here we devised experimental techniques to measure the strength of the relatively small and fragile nest specimens in order to mechanically characterize birds’ mud nests. We elucidate how solutes from bird saliva generate solid bridges that give rise to macroscopic tensile strength, which has long awaited physicochemical explanation since its first observation (4). To characterize the design principle of bird''s mud nests, we investigated natural and three-dimensional (3D)-printed artificial nests with various tools for visualization and mechanical testing. Along with the experimental studies, we theoretically investigated the effects of biopolymer concentration on nest strength. This combination of theory and experiment suggests that there is a size limit for mud-nesting birds, which is supported by biological data.

动物药材生产及产地加工技术标准体系建设

药用动物资源是中药资源的重要组成部分,是中医药发展的重要战略储备资源,在野生药用动物资源日渐匮乏的今天,大力开展药用动物人工养殖才能确保我国中医药产业的可持续发展。然而《中国药典》2015年版一部收载的106种药用动物中仅有22种(除家畜家禽外)有现行选育、养殖相关标准,共211项,其中除国家标准7项、行业标准(农业、水产)11项外均为地方标准,远远落后于同类型农业标准化程度,无法实现动物药材规范化生产。亟需对常见动物药材蟾酥、水蛭、全蝎等建立包括基础标准、产品标准、工艺过程标准、安全标准、环境保护标准、管理标准、工作标准在内的动物药材生产及产地加工技术标准体系,补充产业空白,从源头把控动物药材、动物类中药饮片及含有动物性成分中药产品质量。     

Fatigue resistance of yttria‐stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal clasps for removable partial dentures

With the rapid development of computer‐aided design/computer‐aided manufacturing (CAD /CAM ) systems, the application of zirconia in removable partial dentures is expected to expand. Clasps composed of zirconia should improve esthetics without inducing the risk of metal allergy. The aim of this study was to examine the fatigue resistance of yttria‐stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y‐TZP) clasps for removable partial dentures. Yttria‐stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal and cobalt‐chromium (Co‐Cr) alloy were prepared using CAD /CAM systems. Specimens were either of the semicircular type or of the flat type, with cross‐sectional areas of taper ratios of 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00. All specimens were tested using the cantilever test and the constant displacement fatigue test, and data were analyzed using ANOVA . During the cantilever test, the maximum displacement prior to fracture was greater than the required undercut, and the semicircular‐type specimen exhibited a higher fracture load than the flat type. None of the specimens displayed permanent deformation and showed almost the same degree of deformation after fatigue testing. A lower taper ratio was associated with lower average load values and greater displacement. Within the limitations of this study, it was possible to conclude that Y‐TZP provides the required undercut and adequate retentive force for removable partial denture clasps. Additionally, Y‐TZP and Co‐Cr alloy had almost the same degree of deformation even after the simulated lifespan of removable partial dentures.
