Effect of Electrolyte Composition on the Structure and Properties of Micro-Arc Oxidation Porous Coatings on TA2 Pure Titanium by YANG Xudong, FENG Jun, DAN Min, ZHAO Yingchao, WANG Jun, YUAN Shaohua, QI Huarong

“…In order to investigate the effect of porosity on the comprehensive performance of bioactive coatings， a TiO2 coating was prepared on the surface of TA2 pure titanium using micro-arc oxidation.By varying the concentrations of Na2B4O7 and NaOH in the electrolyte， the effects of electrolyte composition on the phase composition， microstructure， hardness， thickness and hydrophilicity of the micro-arc oxidation coating were examined under constant current mode.Results showed that the coating phase was primarily rutile TiO2.The phase composition， morphology， thickness， hardness and wear resistance of the coating were significantly affected by the concentrations of sodium hydroxide and sodium tetraborate.Moderate addition of NaOH can enhance the thickness， porosity， hardness， wear resistance and corrosion resistance of the coating.However， when the concentration of sodium hydroxide was too high， porosity decreased and coating performance was reduced.When the electrolyte formula was 0.15 mol/L NaOH and 0.10 mol/L Na2B4O7， a porous coating with a "trabecular bone-like" structure was prepared， exhibiting high porosity and good comprehensive performance.…”

Color discrepancy of single-shade composites at different distances from the interface measured using cell phone images by Márcia Luciana Carregosa Santana, Gabriella de Jesus Santos Livi, André Luis Faria-e-Silva

“…Data were analyzed using repeated-measures analysis of variance (α = 0.05).ResultsThe results showed that color discrepancies were lowest near the interface and when the outer composite was whiter (A1). Additionally, Charisma Diamond One exhibited better color adjustment ability than Vittra APS Unique.ConclusionsColor discrepancies between the investigated single-shade composites diminished towards the interface with the surrounding composite, particularly when the latter exhibited a lighter shade.…”

Relationship between 24-hour movement behaviors and executive function in preschool children based on compositional data analysis by Zhenya Chang, Ling Wang, Aifeng Zhu

“…EF was measured by a questionnaire (BRIEF-P), and compositional data analysis was employed. Results: (1) The relative time distribution among 24 h-MBs showed statistically significant associations with both EF and specific subdomains in preschool children (p < 0.05). (2) Moderate-to-Vigorous-intensity Physical Activity (MVPA) was significantly associated with inhibitory control (γ14 = −2.36, p = 0.002), working memory (γ14 = −2.78, p = 0.003), emotional control (γ14 = −1.30, p = 0.024), planning (γ14 = −1.83, p = 0.003), and EF (γ14 = −9.35, p = 0.003). (3) SB was significantly associated with working memory (γ12 = 3.99, p = 0.027) and EF (γ12 = 11.95, p = 0.047). (4) When MVPA was substituted for sleep, SB, and Light-intensity Physical Activity (LPA) for 15 min per day, there was a significant decrease in preschoolers' EF and many of its dimensions. …”
