Synergistic enhancement of hydrophobic dental adhesives: autonomous strengthening, polymerization kinetics, and hydrolytic resistance by Burak Korkmaz, Erhan Demirel, Qiang Ye, Qiang Ye, Anil Misra, Anil Misra, Candan Tamerler, Candan Tamerler, Candan Tamerler, Paulette Spencer, Paulette Spencer, Paulette Spencer

“…The leading cause of composite restoration failure is recurrent marginal decay. The margin between the composite and tooth is initially sealed by a low-viscosity adhesive, but chemical, physical, and mechanical stresses work synergistically and simultaneously to degrade the adhesive, destroying the interfacial seal and providing an ideal environment for bacteria to proliferate. …”

Geohazard features of the Central Apulia by Elisabetta Campiani, Fabio Trincardi, Federica Foglini, Giacomo Dalla Valle, Elisa Leidi, Alessandra Mercorella, Domenico Ridente

“…Numerous fields of large-scale bedforms, and associated erosional features, record the impact of salt-rich contour-parallel and cold downslope-cascading shelf waters. Mass transport processes mobilise Pleistocene progradational deposits (made of sandy, partially lithified units), at the shelf edge, and/or open slope muds and/or contouritic sediment drifts; retrogressive failure may further affect the margin.…”

Study of the impact of drought on the runoff system and the dam on Oued Za using romote sensing techniques (Eastern Morocco) by Karboub Abdelaziz, Ghzal Mohammed, Sbai Abdelkader, Mouadili Omar

“…This phenomenon has an obvious impact, particularly in semi-arid areas, which suffer from scarcity of water resources and low precipitation rates. In turn, the Oued El Hay basin (northern margins of the highlands) is characterized by aridity resulting from its difficult climatic conditions, since climatic elements have an important and decisive role in the periodic and more severe occurrence of droughts, due to their seasonal variations throughout the year. …”

Sulfosalts and Sulfates in the Epithermal Au-Ag-Te Emmy Deposit (Khabarovsk Territory, Far East of Russia): Implications for the Mineralization Process by Tamara Yu. Yakich, Panagiotis Voudouris, Darya V. Levochskaia, Alexey K. Mazurov, Mikhail V. Shaldybin, Yuriy M. Lopushnyak, Alexey S. Ruban, Evan Dasi, Prokopiy N. Maximov, Ekaterina A. Sinkina, Ksenia V. Bestemianova, Maxim A. Rudmin

“…The leached zone between the core and rim of the APS grains is related to a change in crystallization conditions, possibly due to the mixing processes of the fluids with meteoric water. Barite, found in the upper level of the advanced argillic hypogene alteration assemblage, is also characterized by oscillatory zoning, associated with the enrichment of individual zones in lead. …”
