Abstract: For composite materials having a total filler content of 80 to 95% by weight, containing A) 0.5 to 10% by weight of non-agglomerated nanofillers having particle sizes of 1 to 50 nm in the filler component, B) at least 60% by weight of a filler mixture of 50 to 90% coarse-particle and 10 to 50% fine-particle dental glass in the filler component, having a size ratio, relative to the average particle size (d50 value), of coarse to fine particles of >1:4 to 1:30, C) as monomer component, a monomer mixture of i. 60 to 80% bis-GMA or TCD-di-HEMA or TCD-di-HEA, ii. 10 to 18% UDMA, iii. Residual TEDMA and/or multifunctional crosslinkers, D) up to 1% photoinitiator(s); and E) optionally, at least one additional dental glass in the filler component having a different particle size than the coarse- and fine-particle dental glass, the polymerization shrinkage may be reduced to <1.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to processes for electrographic image development. An electrographic development apparatus is provided wherein a film is adjacent a cylindrical toning shell and a mixture of toner and carrier is particles disposed on the cylindrical toning shell in contact with the film. The cylindrical toning shell is closest to the film at a first location, the mixture of toner and carrier particles being movable through the first location with a flow direction. A magnetic core disposed within the cylindrical toning shell offset toward the cylindrical shell such that a magnetic field strength is greater at the second location than the first location.

Abstract: For a glide sport article, especially an ice skate with a shoe body that is located on a chassis and that comprises a cap-like shoe tip forming the toe area of the shoe body, a shoe body section forming the heel area and an ankle support, lacing on the shoe body section and a tongue located beneath the lacing, the shoe tip can be adjusted in a shoe body direction relative to the shoe body section on the chassis.

Abstract: A dental material that contains di- and poly(meth)acrylates and an inorganic filler in the form of a finely divided synthetic crystalline silicic acid with a sheet structure and optionally a very finely ground glass.
