Deicing and self-cleaning are of great importance for many industries and have been
gaining much attention worldwide. The real problem here is icy rain, wherein super-cooled …

Objectives This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effect of plasma treatment versus
conventional treatment on the micro shear bond strength (μSBS), surface roughness, and …

Although the plasma surface modification of polymeric materials has developed enormously
forindustrial application, but researches are new in the field of dentistry. This paper reviews …

Objectives: The aim of the present study was to compare antibiofilm efficacies of the laser in
contact and noncontact application modes and cold atmospheric plasma (CAP) on …

In many applications of the atmospheric pressure plasmas, the plasma is generated in
chambers that enclose samples to be treated. In the case of plasma treatments of water or …

To improve the water resistance property of zein film, polycaprolactone (PCL) was grafted on
the zein film after atmospheric‐pressure cold plasma (ACP) pretreatment. The grafting yields …

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of ultrafast fiber laser treatment on the
bond strength between titanium and resin cement. A total of 60 pure titanium discs (15 mm× …

The introduction of new ceramic materials for dental restorations is currently a reality;
however, little information is available on their surface treatment for the bonding process …

This study aims to evaluate the effect of Nd: YAG and femtosecond lasers irradiation on the
shear bond strength (SBS) of a self-adhesive resin cement to the human dentin surface. One …
