Dental composites reinforced with zinc oxide nanofillers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Dental composites suffer from inadequate mechanical properties and formation of secondary caries, which could lead to the increased failure rate of ... -
The design and implementation of an endoscopic enabled mouth gag
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2016)The purpose of this project was to design and produce a working prototype of a device that could be used in upper airway Otolaryngology surgeries to increase nasopharynx visualization. The nasopharynx is the anatomical ... -
Horizontal zinc oxide nanomaterials growth and their application for surface enhanced raman scattering
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nanonecklace (NNs) or nanochains (NCs), aligned nanoparticles (NPs) in straight or curled shape, have been demonstrated using metals, silicon, silicides, ... -
The influence of nanofiller particle size and surface treatment on dental composite
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2014)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] In the present study, the effect of the size-scale combination of silica on the mechanical and optical properties of acrylate-based (50% BisEMA and 50% ... -
Plasmonic Au nanostructures for surface-enhanced raman spectroscopy
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)Raman spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique that provides rich structural information for identifying chemical species but finds limited applications owing to its low sensitivity. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy ... -
The study and development of calcium phosphate bone cement and hydroxy apatite nanofibers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)In order to have better understanding of the influence of the raw materials of calcium phosphate cements (CPCs), including both powder and liquid, on the properties of the of CPCs and eventually develop a way to better ... -
Synthesis and application of calcium phosphate fibers/whiskers
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2013)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Calcium phosphate is the main inorganic constituent of human hard tissues such as bone and teeth. It has been studied extensively and used clinically ...
