A method of forming a joint comprises the steps of: (a) at least filling a container with granular particles, the granular particles having a size of 0.25 mm to 1 mm; (b) inserting a component part into the container; and (c) at least partially filling the container containing this component part and the granular particles with a flowable, curable liquid, this liquid having curing time of less than 90 seconds. According to one embodiment of the present invention, the curable liquid has a gap fill of less than 0.25 mm and the curing time is less than about 5 seconds or less.

Nowadays, solvent-free, one-part cyanoacrylate adhesive is widely used in medicine and dentistry. According to a literature survey done by the authors, there are few papers concentrated on the role of nano-sized particles on the thermal behavior of cyanoacrylate glue. Thus the main goal of the current research focused on clarifying the role of nano-sized SiO2 on the thermal behavior of cyanoacrylate. Thermal behavior of all materials including cyanoacrylate and its nanocomposites was studied by using Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) methods.

Nanofibers of poly(ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate) were directly grown via a template-less vapor phase polymerization technique directly on surface modified glass substrates. Several commercially available glass slides were investigated for polymer nanofiber deposition. In addition, glass substrates were also modified in the laboratory using silanes with different functional groups. The growth of nanofibers at different relative humidities was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM).

Non-invasive surgery techniques and drug delivery system with acoustic characteristics of ultrasound contrast agent have been studied intensively in recent years. Many ultrasound contrast agents are commercially available, and they are usually composed of a microbubble coated by a surfactant or lipid bilayer, i.e., a hollow microsphere. We show that the hollow microsphere with polymer shell can be fabricated just blowing vapor of commonly-used instant adhesive into water as microbubbles.

A general methodology was proposed to prepare highly functionalized poly(alkyl cyanoacrylate) nanoparticles by means of Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cyclo-addition, the so-called click chemistry.

Supercritical carbon dioxide (SC CO2) was used as an aid in fabricating polymer/polymer composites. Using a two-stage process, ethyl 2-cyanoacrylate (ECA) monomer was anionically polymerized within poly(tetrafluoroethylene-co-hexafluoropropylene) substrates. The composite fabrication process involved first infusing triphenylphosphine (the initiator) into the substrate using SC CO2. In the second step, monomer was introduced (again using SC CO2) to the substrate. As the monomer absorbed into the initiator-containing substrate, it polymerized.

The processing of advanced materials such as refractory ceramics and metallic alloy powders has been investigated intensely over the past two decades. Ceramic injection moulding has therefore become a prime method for manufacturing complicated parts from a robust material. Typically, powder is dispersed within a thermoplastic carrier (or binder) before it is moulded at high temperatures and pressures. Further removal of the binder by thermal or solvent degradation methods yields a component that is suitable for sintering.

An adhesive composite composition is provided including one or more polymerizable monomers and one or more metal stearates. The one or more polymerizable monomers may be a cyanoacrylate monomer. The adhesive composite composition may further comprise a plasticizer, an initiator, a rate modifier, a stabilizer, a colorant, a heat dissipating agent, or other additives. Methods for the application of the adhesive composite compositions to living tissue are also provided.
