Photocatalytic dissociation of organic compounds and wastes is currently object of intense investigations for many reasons related to several advantages offered by a combination of chemical conversion with biological aspects, like the bactericidal action, which are irreplaceable in some situations. Moreover, photocatalysis is often easily...

Clinical long-term osteointegration of titanium-based biomedical devices is the main goal for both dental and orthopedical implants. Both the surface morphology and the possible functionalization of the implant surface are important points. In the last decade, following the success of nanostructured anodic porous alumina, anodic porous titania...

We investigated the temporal response of four dental impression materials, namely three siloxanes (Imprint 4, Flexitime, Aquasil) and one polyether (Impregum). The null hypothesis was that the nominal working times are confirmed by instrumental laboratory tests. We also aimed to identify alternative techniques with strong physical-chemical...
