Evaluation of Mechanical Properties of Provisional Fixed Partial Denture PMMA Material Containing Alumina NanofibersHajjaj, Maher Saeed, 1980- January 2012 (has links)
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Provisional restorative treatment is an essential part of fixed prosthodontics. Incorporation of adequately constructed provisional restorations will enhance the success rate of definitive restorations. Repairing or replacing failed provisional restorations is a concern for both clinicians and patients.
The objective of this investigation was to study the effects of alumina nanofibers reinforcement on the mechanical properties of commercially available provisional fixed partial denture PMMA material. The hypothesis was that the addition of alumina nanofibers to commercially available PMMA resin will significantly increase its flexural strength, fracture toughness, and microhardness. Alumina nanofibers at 0.0 wt %, 0.5 wt %, 1.0 wt %, and 2.5 wt % were added to commercially available provisional fixed partial material (Jet Tooth Shade). A quaternary ammonium acetate dispersant (CC-59, Goldschmidt, Janesville, WI) was added to the acrylic monomer at 0.0 wt %, 1.0 wt %, 2.0 wt % and 5.0 wt % of the nanofiber weight (12 test groups, 1 control). Samples from each group were evaluated for flexural strength, flexural modulus, fracture toughness, and microhardness. The samples were tested after storing in distilled water for 24 hours and 7 days at 37ºC. Two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) was used to test the effects of storage time and combinations of alumina nanofiber level and quaternary ammonium acetate dispersant level on the flexural strength, fracture toughness, and microhardness of the provisional PMMA resin. Pair-wise comparisons between groups were performed using Tukey’s multiple comparisons procedure to control the overall significance level at 5 percent. Three fracture toughness samples/group were randomly selected for Energy Dispersive Spectrometry (EDS) to qualitatively evaluate the dispersion of the fibers.
The data obtained from this study showed that control sample values were in the acceptance range compared with previous research. The experimental samples did not reinforce the provisional resin in the flexural strength, modulus, fracture toughness, or microhardness. There are several factors may attribute to these results, such as poor bonding at the filler/matrix interface. The more homogeneous the mixture of PMMA and fiber, the stronger the acrylic resin. In fact, the presence of poorly bonded fibers, to which little load is transferred, can be almost equivalent to voids. In addition, as seen with EDS images, alumina nanofibers had a tendency to agglomerate. The use of a magnetic stirrer was not effective in physically separating nanofibers agglomerates. Direct dispersion of alumina nanofibers in methyl methacrylate monomer and quaternary ammonium acetate dispersant was not effective in separating the nanofibers into nano-scaled single crystals. The presence of fiber agglomerates acts as a structural defect that detrimentally affects the mechanical properties. Further studies are needed to evaluate the effectiveness of fibers, dispersion techniques, and coupling agents to enhance the mechanical properties of the provisional PMMA resin.

Achieving Optimal Alignments of IR Source and Detector in Waveguide Based Gas Sensor / Att uppnå optimal placering av IR-källa och detektor i vågledarbaserade gassensorerGüler, Sefik, Agwu, Agbai Randolph January 2020 (has links)
I takt med att tekniken för mikroelektromekaniska system utvecklas uppkommer det nya områden för tillämpning. Ett område är inom gassensorer där icke-dispersiv infraröd strålning används genom att mäta absorptionen hos olika gaser för att bestämma mängden av en specifik gas i luften. I detta projekt var målet att använda en vågledare med en infraröd lysdiod på ena sidan och en fotodetektor på andra sidan där vågledaren har som uppgift att utsätta ljuset för maximal mängd koldioxid innandet träffar fotodetektorn. Motiveringen för valet av koldioxid var att det är en gas som har stor påverkan på både klimat och arbetsmiljö. Metoden som ansågs vara bäst för placeringen av tidigare nämnda komponenter var att använda programmerbara rörelseenheter som kallas hexapod som består av sex ben som möjliggör tredimensionella rörelser och rotationer kring varje axel i det kartesiska koordinatsystemet. Experiment där elektromagnetiska störningar från lysdioden undersöktes vilket visade att det förekom elektromagnetisk störning samt att lysdioden påverkade fotodetektorn genom spridning trots att lysdiod och fotodetektor inte var vända mot varandra. / As the technology for microelectromechanical systems develops, new areas of application are emerging. One area is within gas sensors where non-dispersive infrared radiation is used by measuring the absorption of various gases to determine the concentration of a specific gas in the air. In this project, the goal was to use a waveguide with an infrared LED on one side and a photodetector on the other side where the waveguide has the task of exposing the light to the maximum amount of carbon dioxide before it hits the photodetector. The reason for the choice of carbon dioxide was that it is a gas that has a great impact on both the climate and the working environment. The method that was considered to be best for the placement of the aforementioned components was to use programmable motion units called hexapods which consist of six struts that enable three-dimensional movements and rotations around each axis of the Cartesian coordinate system. Experiments in which the electromagnetic interference from the LED were investigated showed that there was electromagnetic interference and that the LED affected the photodetector by scattering, even though the LED and photodetector were not facing each other.

MODELING, DESIGN, AND ADJOINT SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF NANO-PLASMONIC STRUCTURESAhmed, Osman S. 04 1900 (has links)
<p>The thesis intends to explain in full detail the developed techniques and approaches for the modeling, design, and sensitivity analysis of nano-plasmoic structures. However, some examples are included for audiences of general microwave background. Although the thesis is mainly focused on simulation-based techniques, analytical and convex optimization approaches are also demonstrated. The thesis is organized into two parts. Part 1 includes Chapters 2-4, which cover the simulation-based modeling and sensitivity analysis approaches and their applications. Part 2 includes Chapters 5 and 6, which cover the analytical optimization approaches.</p> / <p>We propose novel techniques for modeling, adjoint sensitivity analysis, and optimization of photonic and nano-plasmonic devices. The scope of our work is generalized to cover microwave, terahertz and optical regimes. It contains original approaches developed for different categories of materials including dispersive and plasmonic materials. Artificial materials (metamaterials) are also investigated and modeled. The modeling technique exploits the time-domain transmission line modeling (TD-TLM) technique. Generalized adjoint variable method (AVM) techniques are developed for sensitivity analysis of the modeled devices. Although TLM-based, they can be generalized to other time-domain modeling techniques like finite difference time-domain method (FDTD) and time-domain finite element method (FEM).</p> <p>We propose to extend the application of TLM-based AVM to photonic devices. We develop memory efficient approaches that overcome the limitation of excessive memory requirement in TLM-based AVM. A memory reduction of 90% can be achieved without loss of accuracy and at a more efficient calculation procedure. The developed technique is applied to slot waveguide Bragg gratings and a challenging dielectric resonator antenna problem.</p> <p>We also introduce a novel sensitivity analysis approach for materials with dispersive constitutive parameters. To our knowledge, this is the first wide-band AVM approach that takes into consideration the dependence of material properties on the frequency. The approach can be utilized for design optimization of innovative nano-plasmonic structures. The design of engineered metamaterial is systematic and efficient. Beside working with engineered new designs, dispersive AVM can be utilized in bio-imaging applications. The sensitivity of the objective function with respect to dispersive material properties enables the exploitation of parameter and gradient based optimization for imaging in the terahertz and optical regimes. Material resonance interaction can be easily investigated by the provided sensitivity information.</p> <p>In addition to the developed techniques for simulation-based optimization, several analytical optimization algorithms are proposed to foster the parameter extraction and design optimization in terahertz and optical regimes. In terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, we have developed an efficient parameter based approach that utilizes the pre-known information about the material. The algorithm allows for the estimation of the optical properties of sample materials of unknown thicknesses. The approach has been developed based on physical analytical dispersive models. It has been applied with the Debye, Lorentz, Cole-Cole, and Drude model.</p> <p>Furthermore, we propose various algorithms for design optimization of coupled resonators. The proposed algorithms are utilized to transform a highly non-linear optimization problem into a linear one. They exploit an approximate transfer function of the coupled resonators that avoids negligible multiple reflections among them. The algorithms are successful for the optimization of very large-scale coupled microcavities (150 coupled ring resonators).</p> / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

Immunochemical and chromatographic methods for two anthropogenic markers of contamination in surface waters / caffeine and coprostanolCarvalho, Jose Joao 08 December 2011 (has links)
Koffein (1,3,7-Trimethylxanthin) und Coprostanol (5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol) wurden im Berliner Oberflächenwasser nachgewiesen. Ihre Konzentrationen korrelierten mit dem Verunreinigungsgrad der Proben, was nahelegt, dass sie sich als Marker für menschliche Aktivität eignen. Bemerkenswerterweise wurde Koffein in jeder einzelnen Oberflächenwasserprobe oberhalb der Bestimmungsgrenze von 0,025 µg/L gefunden. Um Oberflächenwasserproben in größeren Serien zu untersuchen, war die Entwicklung zweier neuer Methoden erforderlich: ein Immunoassay, basierend auf einem monoklonalen Antikörper für Koffein und eine dispersive flüssig-flüssig Mikroextraktionsmethode (DLLME), gefolgt von Flüssigkeitschromatographie gekoppelt mit Tandem-Massenspektrometrie (LC-MS/MS) für Coprostanol. Der entwickelte Koffein-Immunoassay zeigt die beste je erhaltene Nachweisgrenze für Koffein (0,001 µg/L), erlaubt Hochdurchsatz-Analysen und erfordert keine Probenvorbereitung. Der Assay wurde auch erfolgreich für die Messung von Koffein in Getränken, Haarwaschmitteln, Koffeintabletten und menschlichem Speichel angewendet. Antikörper gegen Coprostanol sind nicht kommerziell erhältlich. Eine neue Strategie Anti-Coprostanol-Antikörper zu generieren wurde erarbeitet, die eine analoge Verbindung – Isolithocholsäure (ILA) – als Hapten verwendet, mit der eine Gruppe von Mäusen immunisiert wurde. Ein polyklonales Anti-ILA-Serum wurde produziert, welches Coprostanol bindet, aber die niedrige Affinität erlaubte nicht den Aufbau eines Immunoassays, der die Messung von Umweltkonzentrationen des Anayten (im Bereich ng/L) zulässt. Spezifische Anti-ILA-Immunglobuline G wurden auch in den Faeces der Mäuse gefunden. Coprostanol wurde in den Wasserproben durch die Verwendung einer neuentwickelten LC-MS/MS-Methode unter APCI-Ionisation (atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation) gemessen. Konzentrationen oberhalb von 0,1 µg/L wurden nach Voranreicherung der Probe mittels DLLME bestimmt. / Caffeine (1,3,7-trimethylxanthine) and coprostanol (5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol) were detected in samples of Berlin’s surface water. Their concentrations correlated with the contamination status of the samples, suggesting their usefulness as markers of human activity. Remarkably, caffeine concentrations were always well above the limit of quantitation of 0.025 µg/L. In order to screen surface water samples in larger series, the development of two novel methods was required: a monoclonal antibody-based immunoassay for caffeine and a dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) method, followed by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) for coprostanol. The caffeine immunoassay developed shows the best analytical limit of detection (LOD) obtained so far for caffeine (0.001 µg/L), allows high-throughput analysis, and does not require sample pre-treatment. The assay was also successfully employed to measure caffeine in beverages, shampoos, caffeine tab-lets, and human saliva. Antibodies to coprostanol are not commercially available. A new strategy to generate anti-coprostanol antibodies was elaborated using an analogous com-pound as hapten – isolithocholic acid (ILA) – and immunizing a group of mice. A polyclonal anti-ILA serum was produced, which binds coprostanol but the low affinity did not permit setting up an immunoassay to measure environmental concentrations of the analyte (in the range of ng/L). Specific anti-ILA immunoglobulin G were also found in the faeces of the immunized mice. Coprostanol was quantified in the water samples using a newly developed LC-MS/MS method using atmospheric pressure chemical ionisation (APCI). Concentrations above 0.1 µg/L were determined after sample preconcentration using DLLME. This extraction method also proved to be successful for enrichment of coprostanol-related compounds such as cholesterol, cholestanol, cholestanone, ergosterol, and stigmasterol.

Effets dispersifs et dissipatifs en théorie quantique des champs en espace-temps courbe pour modéliser des systèmes de matière condensée / Dispersive and dissipative effects in quantum field theory in curved space-time to modelize condensed matter systemsBusch, Xavier 26 September 2014 (has links)
Les deux principales prédictions de la théorie quantique des champs en espace-temps courbe, à savoir la radiation de Hawking et la production de paires de particules ayant lieu dans un espace-temps non stationnaire, n'ont jamais été testé expérimentalement et impliquent toutes deux des processus à ultra haute énergie. En conséquence, de telles prédictions doivent être considérées prudemment. En utilisant l'analogie avec des systèmes de matière condensée mise en avant par Unruh, leur analogue pourrait être testé en laboratoire. Par ailleurs, dispersion et dissipation sont toujours présentes dans de tels systèmes, ce qui régularise la théorie à courte distances. Lors d'expériences destinées à tester les prédictions citées ci-dessus, le bruit thermique modifiera le résultat. En effet, il existe une compétition entre l'émission stimulée dudit bruit thermique et l'émission spontanée issue du vide quantique. Afin de mesurer la radiation de Hawking analogue et de l'analogue des productions de paires (souvent appelé effet Casimir dynamique), il est alors nécessaire de calculer les conséquence de la dispersion et de la dissipation, ainsi que d'identifier des observables permettant de certifier que l'amission spontanée a eu lieu. Dans cette thèse, nous analyserons d'abord les effets de la dispersion et de la dissipation à la fois sur la radiation de Hawking et sur la production de paires de particules. Afin d'obtenir des résultats explicites, nous travaillerons avec l'espace-temps de de Sitter. Les symétries de la théorie nous permettront d'obtenir des résultats exacts. Ceux-ci seront alors appliqués aux trous noirs grâce aux ressemblances entre la région proche du trou noir et l'espace de de Sitter. Afin d’introduire de la dissipation, nous considérerons un modèle exactement soluble permettant de modéliser n'importe quel taux de dissipation. Dans un tel modèle, le champ est couplé de manière linéaire à un environnement contenant un ensemble dense de degrés de liberté. Dans un tel contexte, nous étudierons l'intrication des particules produites. Ensuite, nous considérerons des systèmes de matière condensée spécifiques, à savoir les condensats de Bose et les polaritons. Nous analyserons les effets de la dissipation sur l'intrication de l’effet Casimir dynamique. Enfin, nous étudieront de manière générique l'intrication de la radiation de Hawking en présence de dispersion pour des systèmes analogues. / The two main predictions of quantum field theory in curved space-time, namely Hawking radiation and cosmological pair production, have not been directly tested and involve ultra high energy configurations. As a consequence, they should be considered with caution. Using the analogy with condensed matter systems put forward by Unruh, their analogue versions could be tested in the lab. Moreover, the high energy behavior of these systems is known and involved dispersion and dissipation, which regulate the theory at short distances. When considering experiments which aim to test the above predictions, the thermal noise will contaminate the outcome. Indeed, there will be a competition between the stimulated emission from thermal noise and the spontaneous emission out of vacuum. In order to measure the quantum analogue Hawking radiation, or the analogue pair production also called dynamical Casimir effect, one should thus compute the consequences of ultraviolet dispersion and dissipation, and identify observables able to establish that the spontaneous emission took place. In this thesis, we first analyze the effects of dispersion and dissipation on both Hawking radiation and pair particle production. To get explicit results, we work in the context of de Sitter space. Using the extended symmetries of the theory in such a background, exact results are obtained. These are then transposed to the context of black holes using the correspondence between de Sitter space and the black hole near horizon region. To introduce dissipation, we consider an exactly solvable model producing any decay rate. In such a model, the field is linearly coupled to an environment containing a dense set of degrees of freedom. We also study the quantum entanglement of the particles so produced. In a second part, we consider explicit condensed matter systems, namely Bose Einstein condensates and exciton-polariton systems. We analyze the effects of dissipation on entanglement produced by the dynamical Casimir effect. As a final step, we study the entanglement of Hawking radiation in the presence of dispersion for a generic analogue system.

Ion irradiation effects on high purity bcc Fe and model FeCr alloys / Effets de l'irradiation d’ions sur fer cubic centrée de haute pureté et FeCr alliage modèleBhattacharya, Arunodaya 09 December 2014 (has links)
Les alliages binaires FeCr de structure FM (ferrito/martensitique) sont actuellement les candidats les plus prometteurs comme matériaux de structure pour les réacteurs rapides refroidis au sodium et les futurs systèmes de fusion. Cependant, l'impact de Cr sur l'évolution de la microstructure irradié dans ces matériaux n’est pas bien compris. De plus, particulièrement pour les applications de fusion, le scénario de dégâts d'irradiation devrait être compliquée en outre par la présence de grandes quantités d'hélium produit par transmutation nucléaire (~ 10 appm He / dpa). Dans ce contexte, une étude spécifique des effets de l'irradiation ionique (influence du Cr et de l’He sur l’évolution de la microstructure) a été menée à 500 ° C sur une grande variété d’alliages FeCr de haute pureté (à teneur en Cr allant de ~ 3 wt.% À 14 wt.%) ainsi que sur du Fe pur. Les irradiations ont été effectuées à l'aide ions Fe, en mode mono-faisceau et mode dual-beam (irradiation par des ions Fe et co-implantation d'He) afin de pouvoir séparer le dommage ballistique de l’implantation couplée avec de l’He. Trois différentes doses ont été étudiées: dose élevée (157 dpa, avec 17 appm He / dpa), dose intermédiaire (45 dpa, avec 57 appm He / dpa) et in situ à faible dose (0,33 dpa, avec 3030 appm He / dpa). Les expériences ont été effectuées en utilisant l'installation JANNuS triple faisceau du CEA-Saclay et la plateforme in-situ du CSNSM-Orsay. L’évolution microstructurale des échantillons est essentiellement faite par MET, SAT et par EDS en mode STEM. Les principaux résultats sont les suivants : 1) L’étude détaillée de la population des cavités dans du Fe irradié à forte dose a révélé une forte réduction du gonflement du fait de l'ajout d’He. Une réduction drastique de la taille des cavités en dépit d’une densité plus élevée a été observée. Ce comportement a été observé tout au long zone irradié, jusqu’au pic d’endommagement. 2) La microstructure de cavités a également été étudiée dans les alliages FeCr irradiés en double faisceau à forte dose, et les résultats ont été comparés à ceux obtenus dans le Fe pur. L'analyse a été effectuée à une profondeur intermédiaire de 300 à 400 nm sous la surface (pour éviter les effets des interstitiels injectés et les effets de surface), correspondant à 128 dpa, 13 appm He / dpa. L’étude par TEM a montré que l'addition de petites quantités de Cr, aussi basse que 3wt.%, est très efficace pour réduire fortement le gonflement. Une réduction drastique de la taille des cavités a été mise en évidence. Par exemple, la taille moyenne des cavités pour l’alliage Fe3% Cr est de l’ordre de 0,9 nm alors qu’elle est voisine de 6,8 nm pour le Fe pur. De plus, la variation du gonflement en fonction de la teneur en Cr n’est pas monotone et présente un maximum local à environ 9 -. 10wt% Cr. 3) Le couplage des différentes techniques d’analyse, MET classique, STEM/EDS et analyse SAT appliqué à l’étude des alliages FeCr irradiés à faible et moyenne dose révèle la présence de zones enrichies en Cr sur le plan d’habitat des boucles de dislocation. Ce phénomène est relié à un phénomène de ségrégation induite par irradiation (RIS) de Cr au voisinage du coeur des boucles de dislocation. Quand la boucle se développe sous irradiation, les zones de ségrégation ne peuvent probablement pas se redissoudre du fait de la présence d'impuretés telles que le C. Lorsque les boucles sont imagées par MET, ces zones enrichies produisent des franges de contraste au voisinage du plan de la boucle. Une estimation quantitative de cet enrichissement a été déduit par STEM / EDS et l'SAT. La teneur en Cr dans ces domaines se situe entre 23 -. 35% par EDS et 22 % par SAT, ce qui est bien en dessous de la teneur en Cr de la phase α’ riche en Cr. / FeCr binary alloys are a simple representative of the reduced activation ferritic/martensitic (F-M) steels, which are currently the most promising candidates as structural materials for the sodium cooled fast reactors (SFR) and future fusion systems. However, the impact of Cr on the evolution of the irradiated microstructure in these materials is not well understood in these materials. Moreover, particularly for fusion applications, the radiation damage scenario is expected to be complicated further by the presence of large quantities of He produced by the nuclear transmutation (~ 10 appm He/dpa). Within this context, an elaborate ion irradiation study was performed at 500 °C on a wide variety of high purity FeCr alloys (with Cr content ranging from ~ 3 wt.% to 14 wt.%) and a bcc Fe, to probe in detail the influence of Cr and He on the evolution of microstructure. The irradiations were performed using Fe self-ions, in single beam mode and in dual beam mode (damage by Fe ions and co-implantation of He), to separate ballistic damage effect from the impact of simultaneous He injection. Three different dose ranges were studied: high dose (157 dpa, 17 appm He/dpa for the dual beam case), intermediate dose (45 dpa, 57 appm He/dpa for dual beam case) and in-situ low dose (0.33 dpa, 3030 appm He/dpa for the dual beam case). The experiments were performed at the JANNuS triple beam facility and dual beam in situ irradiation facility at CEA-Saclay and CSNSM, Orsay respectively. The microstructure was principally characterized by conventional TEM, APT and EDS in STEM mode. The main results are as follows: 1) A comparison of the cavity microstructure in high dose irradiated Fe revealed strong swelling reduction by the addition of He. It was achieved by a drastic reduction in cavity sizes and an increased number density. This behaviour was observed all along the damage depth, upto the damage peak. 2) Cavity microstrusture was also studied in the dual beam high dose irradiated FeCr alloys, and the results were compared to bcc Fe. The analysis was performed at an intermediate depth 300 – 400 nm below the surface (to avoid injected interstitial effect and surface effects), corresponding to 128 dpa, 13 appm He/dpa. TEM study revealed that the addition of small quantities of Cr, as low as 3wt.%, is highly efficient in strongly reducing void swelling. It was achieved by a drastic reduction of cavity sizes. For instance, average cavity size in Fe3%Cr was 0.9 nm as opposed to 6.8 nm in bcc Fe. Furthermore, the variation of void swelling as a function of Cr content is non-monotonic, with alocal maxima around 9 - 10wt.%Cr. 3) Coupling of conventional TEM, STEM/EDS and APT analysis on low and intermediate dose irradiated FeCr alloys revealed the presence of Cr enriched zones on the habit plane of the dislocation loops. This is expected to be due to radiation induced segregation (RIS) of Cr close to the core of the loops. As the loop grows under irradiation, the segregated areas are probably prevented from re-dissolution by impurity elements such as C. When imaged by TEM using classical diffraction contrast imaging techniques, these enriched zones produce displacement fringe contrast on the loop plane. A quantitative estimate of this enrichment was deduced by STEM/EDSand APT. The Cr content in these areas was between 23 - 35 at.% measured by EDS and 22 ± 2 at.% obtained by APT, whichis well below the Cr content of the Cr-rich α’ phase.

Análise in vitro da morfologia superficial de uma nova formulação de biovidro associado ao laser de Nd:YAG e laser de CO2 sobre dentina humana / In vitro analysis of the surface morphology of a new bioglass formulation associated with Nd: YAG laser and CO2 laser on human dentinLee, Ester Mi Ryoung 13 June 2017 (has links)
Dentre as opções de terapias dessensibilizantes, a proposta mais recente para o tratamento da Hipersensibilidade Dentinária é o uso do biovidro. Esse novo material apresenta a capacidade de promover a formação de hidroxiapatita na superfície da dentina, representando uma união química mais estável e duradoura sobre os túbulos dentinários. Este trabalho comparou o efeito de uma nova formulação de biovidro disperso em ácido fosfórico 30%, associado ao laser de Nd:YAG e ao laser de CO2 na obliteração de túbulos dentinários expostos. Foram obtidas 96 amostras de dentina humana que foram divididas em 6 grupos experimentais (n=16) e distribuídas como a seguir: G1 - controle negativo (nenhum tratamento adicional);? G2 - laser de Nd:YAG;? G3 - laser de CO2;? G4 - pasta de biovidro (biovidro + ácido fosfórico 30%);? G5 - pasta de biovidro + laser de Nd:YAG;? G6 - pasta de biovidro + laser de CO2. Os grupos G5 e G6 foram irradiados com laser de Nd:YAG e laser de CO2, respectivamente, após tratamento com a pasta de biovidro disperso em ácido fosfórico. Ao final do experimento, os grupos foram analisados qualitativamente por Espectroscopia de Infravermelho na Transformada de Fourier (FTIR), Difração de Raios X (DRX), Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura (MEV) e Espectroscopia de Dispersão de Energia de Raios X (EDS). As análises evidenciaram que a dipersão do biovidro em ácido fosfórico 30% é capaz de formar cristais de hidrogenofosfato de cálcio e, quando a pasta formulada é aplicada sobre a dentina, ocorrem reações químicas com a estrutura dental, formando cristais de monetita. Ao irradiar os cristais formados com laser de Nd:YAG e CO2, ocorreu a desidratação desses cristais, levando à formação de hidroxiapatita. As imagens de MEV demonstram a formação de precipitados cristalinos e amorfos de dimensões variadas sobre a superfície de dentina e na entrada dos túbulos dentinários em todos os grupos que receberam o tratamento com a formulação de biovidro. O laser de CO2 foi capaz de promover alterações na morfologia do material formado de maneira ainda mais evidente especialmente nas dimensões e disposição dos cristais de hidroxiapatita formado sobre a superfície. A análise de EDS evidenciou presença de silício, composto que não está presente naturalmente na estrutura dentária, mas somente na composição do biovidro. Dessa forma, pode-se concluir que a associação do pó de biovidro com ácido fosfórico 30% permitiu a formação de uma camada de cristais na superfície e entrada dos túbulos dentinários, evidenciando que a pasta formulada viabiliza a aplicação e manutenção do biovidro sobre a superfície dentinária. Sua associação com o laser de Nd:YAG e CO2 parece melhorar a interação desses cristais com a dentina, formando cristais de hidroxiapatita. Nesse estudo, o laser de CO2 promoveu a melhor distribuição e conformação dos cristais sobre a dentina. / Among desensitizing therapies options, the most recent proposal for Dentin Hypersensitivity treatment is the use of bioglass. This new material presents the ability to promote the formation of hydroxyapatite on dentin surface, representing a more stable and lasting chemical bond on dentin tubules. This work compared the effect of a new formulation of bioglass dispersed in 30% phosphoric acid, associated with Nd: YAG laser and CO2 laser in the obliteration of exposed dentin tubules. 96 human dentin samples were obtained, divided into 6 experimental groups (n = 16) and distributed as follows: G1 - negative control (no additional treatment);? G2- Nd: YAG laser;? G3 - CO2 laser;? G4 - bioglass paste (bioglass + 30% phosphoric acid);? G5 - bioglass paste + Nd: YAG laser;? G6 - bioglass paste + CO2 laser. Groups G5 and G6 were irradiated with Nd:YAG laser and CO2 laser, respectively, after treatment with the slurry dispersed in phosphoric acid. At the end of the experiment, all groups were qualitatively analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Energy Dispersion Spectroscopy (EDS). The analysis showed that the dispersion of bioglass in 30% phosphoric acid forms calcium hydrogen phosphate crystals and when the formulated paste is applied on dentin surface, chemical reactions occur with the dental structure, forming monetite crystals. When irradiating these crystals with Nd: YAG and CO2 laser, dehydration of these crystals occurred leading to the formation of hydroxyapatite. MEV images demonstrate the formation of crystalline and amorphous precipitates of varying dimensions on the dentin surface and at the entrance of dentinal tubules in all groups receiving treatment with the bioglass formulation. The CO2 laser was able to promote changes in the morphology of the formed material even more evident especially in the dimension and arrangement of hydroxyapatite crystals formed on the surface. The analysis of EDS showed the presence of silicon, a compound that is not naturally present in the tooth structure, but only in the bioglass composition. Thus, it can be concluded that the association of bioglass powder with 30% phosphoric acid allowed the formation of a layer of crystals on the surface and its entrance of the dentinal tubules, evidencing that the formulated paste enables the application and maintenance of bioglass on dentin surface. Its association with the Nd:YAG and CO2 laser seems to improve the interaction of these crystals with dentin, forming hydroxyapatite crystals. In this study. CO2 laser promoted better crystals distribution and conformation on dentin surface.

Ao irradiar os cristais formados com laser de Nd:YAG e CO2, ocorreu a desidratação desses cristais, levando à formação de hidroxiapatita. As imagens de MEV demonstram a formação de precipitados cristalinos e amorfos de dimensões variadas sobre a superfície de dentina e na entrada dos túbulos dentinários em todos os grupos que receberam o tratamento com a formulação de biovidro. O laser de CO2 foi capaz de promover alterações na morfologia do material formado de maneira ainda mais evidente especialmente nas dimensões e disposição dos cristais de hidroxiapatita formado sobre a superfície. A análise de EDS evidenciou presença de silício, composto que não está presente naturalmente na estrutura dentária, mas somente na composição do biovidro. Dessa forma, pode-se concluir que a associação do pó de biovidro com ácido fosfórico 30% permitiu a formação de uma camada de cristais na superfície e entrada dos túbulos dentinários, evidenciando que a pasta formulada viabiliza a aplicação e manutenção do biovidro sobre a superfície dentinária. Sua associação com o laser de Nd:YAG e CO2 parece melhorar a interação desses cristais com a dentina, formando cristais de hidroxiapatita. Nesse estudo, o laser de CO2 promoveu a melhor distribuição e conformação dos cristais sobre a dentina. / Among desensitizing therapies options, the most recent proposal for Dentin Hypersensitivity treatment is the use of bioglass. This new material presents the ability to promote the formation of hydroxyapatite on dentin surface, representing a more stable and lasting chemical bond on dentin tubules. This work compared the effect of a new formulation of bioglass dispersed in 30% phosphoric acid, associated with Nd: YAG laser and CO2 laser in the obliteration of exposed dentin tubules. 96 human dentin samples were obtained, divided into 6 experimental groups (n = 16) and distributed as follows: G1 - negative control (no additional treatment);? G2- Nd: YAG laser;? G3 - CO2 laser;? G4 - bioglass paste (bioglass + 30% phosphoric acid);? G5 - bioglass paste + Nd: YAG laser;? G6 - bioglass paste + CO2 laser. Groups G5 and G6 were irradiated with Nd:YAG laser and CO2 laser, respectively, after treatment with the slurry dispersed in phosphoric acid. At the end of the experiment, all groups were qualitatively analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-ray Energy Dispersion Spectroscopy (EDS). The analysis showed that the dispersion of bioglass in 30% phosphoric acid forms calcium hydrogen phosphate crystals and when the formulated paste is applied on dentin surface, chemical reactions occur with the dental structure, forming monetite crystals. When irradiating these crystals with Nd: YAG and CO2 laser, dehydration of these crystals occurred leading to the formation of hydroxyapatite. MEV images demonstrate the formation of crystalline and amorphous precipitates of varying dimensions on the dentin surface and at the entrance of dentinal tubules in all groups receiving treatment with the bioglass formulation. The CO2 laser was able to promote changes in the morphology of the formed material even more evident especially in the dimension and arrangement of hydroxyapatite crystals formed on the surface. The analysis of EDS showed the presence of silicon, a compound that is not naturally present in the tooth structure, but only in the bioglass composition. Thus, it can be concluded that the association of bioglass powder with 30% phosphoric acid allowed the formation of a layer of crystals on the surface and its entrance of the dentinal tubules, evidencing that the formulated paste enables the application and maintenance of bioglass on dentin surface. Its association with the Nd:YAG and CO2 laser seems to improve the interaction of these crystals with dentin, forming hydroxyapatite crystals. In this study. CO2 laser promoted better crystals distribution and conformation on dentin surface.
