Nanoenabled resinbased composites in restorative dentistry: mechanical performance, aesthetic outcomes, and global regulatory considerations
Abstract: Resinbased composites are central to contemporary restorative dentistry but remain constrained by polymerization shrinkage, wear and color instability, which compromise longterm restoration success. Nanoenabled resinbased composites (nanocomposites) have been developed to overcome these limitations by incorporating nanosized fillers and engineered nanostructures into conventional resin matrices, thereby enhancing mechanical properties and optical performance. This narrative Review summarises current evidence on the evolution, composition, and mechanisms of nanoenabled resinbased composites; compares their …

Physico-mechanical, and Biodegradation Properties of Polyethylene/Food Polysaccharide Blends
Abstract: Hydrophilic/polar and hydrophobic/non-polar materials do not blend well, which causes issues in the production of biodegradable plastic. Plasticizer (glycerol) was one of the components added to the mixture to increase compatibility between the two materials; this also made the film less brittle. The purpose of this study is to look at how different food polysaccharide contents affect the physico-mechanical, and biodegradation characteristics of novel polymeric-based bio-composite films made from low-density …

Effect of Nanoclay on the Performance of Calotopis Gigantea Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Composites at Distinct Temperature
Abstract: Polymer-based nanocomposite is a developing subject that attracts many researchers due to its special qualities and versatility. Because the specific surface areas of nanofillers in nanocomposites are so high, it is much simpler to produce mechanical properties at the interface. Furthermore, a favorable interaction between the nanofillers and polymer matrix may manifest itself even at comparatively lower percentages of loading nanofillers. Thus, a smart, adaptive polymer nanocomposite material with the …
