Dental glass-ceramics (DGCs) are developed by controlled crystallization of oxide glasses
and form an important group of biomaterials used in modern dentistry. They are also of great …

In this study, picosecond laser texturing was applied to enamel (an inorganic glass material)
with micro-features that were then covalently absorbed with fluorosilane agents to produce …

The history of ceramics dates back to 9000 BCE. The earlier use of ceramics was restricted
to pottery, structural, and kitchenware applications. Due to the advancement in the …

A novel environmental barrier coating system for steel consisting of a perhydropolysilazane
(PHPS) bond coat and a polysilazane-based glass/ceramic composite top coat has been …

The miniaturization and widespread deployment of electronic devices across diverse
environments have heightened their vulnerability to corrosion, particularly affecting copper …

Surgical meshes composed of bioinert polymers such as polypropylene are widely used in
millions of hernia repair procedures to prevent the recurrence of organ protrusion from the …

γ-TiAl intermetallic alloys are presently considered an efficient structural material for
advanced turbine blades and aero-engine components due to their various advantages …

The oxidation behavior of a martensitic stainless steel with or without glass coating was
investigated at 600–800° C. The glass coating provided effective protection for the stainless …

Biofouling refers to the accumulation of organisms on artificial surfaces. This phenomenon
poses significant challenges in industrial processes, including reduced energy efficiency …

This study was an attempt made to explore the possibility of increasing the surface
