NBR/PVC Blends Production, Testing and Applications: An Overview
Abstract: PVC due to its polar nature allows preparation of compatible blends with other polymers. Main and unique property of NBR is its oil resistance and it is used in such application even after higher cost than natural and synthetic rubbers. PVC possesses good oil resistance but needs additional plasticizer which can be extracted by solvents; thus, plastic becomes hard and brittle during the life cycle of the product. There are …

Peri-implant Inflammation Defined by the Implant–Abutment Interface
Abstract: An interface of implant-abutment at the alveolar bone crest is allied with sustained peri-implant inflammation; though, whether extent of inflammation is correspondingly reliant on interface position remains unknown. This study compared the distribution and density of inflammatory cells surrounding implants with a supracrestal, crestal, or subcrestal implant-abutment interface. All implants established a parallel pattern of peri-implant inflammation: neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) extremely collected at or proximately coronal to the interface. …
