In this work, varying compositions of SiO2 micro filler were added
with the Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) and samples have been prepared
using film casting technique. The results have been analyzed and
compared for PVC samples with (1 wt%, 3 wt%, 5 wt% and 10 wt%)
SiO2 micro filler. Mechanical characteristics such as tensile strength,
elongation at break and Young`s modulus were measured for all the
samples, where the tensile strength was increased from 8.39 Mpa for
purified PVC to 16 Mpa for 3% SiO2/PVC composite. Also, thermal
conductivity measurement values illustrated that composite materials
have a good thermal insulation at 10 wt. %, thermal conductivity was
decreased from 0.1684 W/m. K for PVC to 0.1310W/m. K at 10%
SiO2/PVC composite. Absorptivity test was also carried out for these
samples, the results of this study proved that PVC and SiO2-PVC
composites have low diffusion coefficients ranging from (10-13- 10-10
m2/s). Similarly, the dielectric properties like dielectric constant, loss
factor, resistance, and volume resistivity were performed; the
dielectric constant was increased from 2.1039 for PVC to 3.658 for
3% SiO2/PVC composites, while the dielectric loss factor was
decreased from 0.0144 for PVC to 0.0137 for 5%SiO2/PVC
composite. The values of resistance were increased from
17259.99(Ω) for purified PVC to 29185.75(Ω) for 10% SiO2/PVC
composites. Volume resistivity was increased from 0.3794 x109 (Ω.
cm) for PVC to 0.5179x109 (Ω. cm) for 10% SiO2/PVC composites.
FTIR spectroscopy was employed for all PVC-composite samples
and its results were investigated, there are systematic increases in
absorbance intensity spectra with SiO2 ratios attributed to good
distribution of inorganic fillers (Symmetric increases). The
microstructure and morphology of the prepared samples were
investigated by using optical microscope. It can be observed that, the
samples with (3% SiO2/PVC) are glossy and smooth without
agglomeration of (SiO2) particles in (PVC) matrix. The results
demonstrate that PVC-composite films prepared in this study show
promising potential to achieve good materials for plastic packaging
applications.
The objective of this article is to delve into the intricate dynamics of marriage relationships, exploring the impact of emotions such as fear, love, financial considerations and likability. In our investigation, we adopt a perspective that acknowledges the nonlinear nature of interactions among individuals. Diverging from certain prior studies, we propose that the fear element within the context of marriage is not a singular, isolated factor but rather a manifestation resulting from the amalgamation of numerous social issues. This, in turn, contributes to the emergence of strained and unsuccessful relationships. Unlike conventional approaches, we extensively examine the conditions essential for the existence of all socially signifi

Show MoreBackground: A Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) internal derangement (TMJID) is a disruption within the internal aspects of the TMJ in which the disc is displaced from its normal functional relationship with the mandibular condyle, after which the articular portion of the temporal bone causes joint dysfunction, joint sound, malocclusion, and locking of the mouth. Conservative and invasive techniques can be used for the treatment of TMJID. A platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injection is a simple, less invasive surgical procedure for the treatment of internal derangement. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of PRP injections in decreasing or eliminating pain, clicking, and limitation of mouth opening in patients with TMJID after th

Abstract
Leadership has now become a process for applying methods and techniques that make the Organization at the top of its competitive pyramid a greater market share. Leadership has become a focus for all leaders and managers، and leaders and managers are increasingly seeking to develop their skills and leadership skills. The research started with a clear problem of specific questions to ensure that the general objective of the research is to describe the characteristics of the leader and to clarify the dimensions of empowering the workers and to highlight the role of the leader in empowering the workers. The study examines the relation between the role of the leader in

The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical outcome between HAB and the conventional Erich arch bar (EAB) in the closed treatment of mandibular fractures. Materials and methods: This study included 18 patients who were treated for mandibular fractures with maxillomandibular fixation (MMF), patients were randomly assigned into a control group (n = 10) in which EAB was used and study group (n = 8) in which HAB was used. The outcome variables were time required for application and removal, gingival inflammation scores, postoperative complications, and incidence of wire-stick injury or gloves perf
