The effect of silanize alumina nano-fillers addition on some physical and mechanical properties of heat cured polymethyl methacrylate denture base material 

Despite its fragility, poor thermal properties, and high water sorption rates, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) is commonly used in denture fabrication. This study aimed to examine how the addition of Aluminum oxide nanoparticles affected the properties of PMMA. A thermal constant analyzer measured the thermal properties ...

Determination of specific heat capacity by transient plane source

This study developed a model that used a transient plane source (TPS) sensor to measure the specific heat capacity of anisotropic materials. The underside of a sample holder with a diameter of 20 mm, and a height of 5 mm was attached to a Kapton TPS sensor. ...

Transient hot strip probe for measuring thermal properties of insulating solids and liquids

In this study, a modification to the transient hot-strip (THS) method demonstrated that the thermal properties of two different materials can be measured simultaneously when placed on either side of the hot-strip sensor. Three experiments tested samples of gabbro with a regular THS sensor, a ...

The thermophysical characterization of soils

Understanding the thermal properties of soils is important for applications in agronomy and engineering. The aim of this study was to examine the thermal properties of volcanically-derived Chilean soils using the Transient Plane Source (TPS) method. Results showed that thermal conductivity decreased with water content ...
