For the recognition of C-shaped root canal system, 1 146 mandibular second molars were selected and examined. Teeth with C-shaped canal systems were categorized by using the radiographic classification criteria and the modified Melton＇s method. C-shaped canals were identified in 397 （34.64%） mandibular second molars by radiography （type I, 31.23%; type II, 38.29%; type III, 30.48%）. Clinical examination showed that 449 （39.18%） cases exhibited C-shaped canal systems （C1, 22.94%; C2, 48.11%; C3a, 15.59%; C3b, 13.36%）. As for the result of the radiographic and clinical combined examination, C-shaped root canals were found in 473 （41.27%） mandibular second molars （C1, 21.78%; C2, 45.67%; C3a, 16.70%; C3b, 15.86%）. The incidence of C-shaped root canal diagnosed by radiographic method was statistically different from that by clinical examination and the combined examination （P〈O.05）. The study indicated a high incidence of C-shaped canal system in a Chinese population. The combination of microscopic and radiographic examination is an effective method in identifying the C-shaped root canal system.展开更多

They possess shorter absorption wavelengths (λ_(cut-off))<400 nm) andhigher βμ values (around 10^(-46) esu). The second order nonlinear optical coefficient d_(33) ofpoled BNPMOPMDA/PMMA doped film is 1.2-2.0×10^(-9) esu obtained by in-situ SHGmeasurements. It can be expected that the chromophore-functionalized polymer containinghigher number density of synthesized chromophore as side chain will be the potential blue-light transparent frequency doubling materials.展开更多

This transition was assigned to the dissociation ofintermolecular hydrogen bonds between the polymer ard additive within the edditive rich phase. Of particular interest is thata novel pyramid crystal was observed in the annealed CPE/hindered phenol blends. Another intriguing observation is thatthese polymer/small molecule blends organized by intermolecular hydrogen bonding have several potential properties, suchas shape-memorization, self-restoration, self-adhesiveness and super damping.展开更多

The results show that an appropriate amount of ductile γ-phase significantly enhances the TWSME. The largest TWSME of 1.4% without training is observed in N（56Mn21Co4Ga18.9Gd0.1 alloy, and this value is increased to 2.0% after thermomechanical training. The as-trained TWSME decays over the first five thermal cycles and then reaches a stable value as the number of cycles further increasing. Only the degradation of 0.2% is observed after 100 thermal cycles. The better TWSME and thermal stability are ascribed to the stable extra stress field formed by the plastically deformed γ-phase.展开更多
