Gloss is an essential visual property of objects. It is still controversial how well gloss constancy works under different light distributions. In this paper, we conducted three experiments of different light distributions to investigate whether the stable discrimination and gloss constancy of paper occurred with different glossiness levels at the different light source distances and illuminances. The results suggest instability of paper discrimination and gloss perception when both light source distance and illuminance change. Then we tested two additional conditions. One is setting the distance the same and manipulating the illumination. The other is setting the illuminance constant and manipulating the distance, respectively. We further verify that illuminance and specular reflection can affect material and gloss perception, regardless of the width of the highlight region changed by light source distance.

The use of nano particle composite in posterior region is somehow difficult due to the limited space to place the light source as close as possible to the restorative material. The distance between the light source and restorative material surface leads to decreased light intensity that causing inadequate polymerization. The inadequate polymerization affects the composite diametral tensile strength. Two types of nano particle composite, i.e. FiltekTM Z-350 and Ceram-XTM were tested for their diametral tensile strength, which is affected by the distance of the light source from the composite material surface. Some cylindrical specimens were exposed to light with various distances from the light source, i.e. 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 mm from the specimen surface. From the six distance variations tested the diametral tensile strength of Filtek Z-350 is 64.09-58.20 MPa with the significant result in 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm distances; and the diametral strenght of Ceram-X is 47.52-42.20 MPa with the significant result in 2, 3, 4 and 5 mm distances. The results of this study show that the increased distance of the light source from the nano particle composite restorative material leads to decreased diametral strength of the two nano particle composites tested.

The degradation of chlorpyriphos by different advanced oxidation processes such as photo-Fenton, TiO2, TiO2/H2O2, O3 and O3/H2O2 was investigated. The photo-Fenton and TiO2 processes were optimized using a solar chamber as light source. The optimum dosages of the photo-Fenton treatment were: [H2O2]=0.01 M; [Fe3 + ]=10 mg l−1; initial pH = 3.5. With these optimum conditions total degradation was observed after 15 minutes of reaction time. The application of sunlight was also efficient as total degradation was achieved after 60 minutes. The optimum dosage using only TiO2 as catalyst was 1,000 mg l−1, obtaining the maximum degradation at 20 minutes of reaction time. On the other hand, the addition of 0.02 M of H2O2 to a lower dosage of TiO2 (10 mg l−1) provides the same degradation. The ozonation treatment achieved complete degradation at 30 minutes of reaction time. On the other hand, it was observed that the degradation was faster by adding H2O2 (H2O2/O3 molar ratio = 0.5). In this case, total degradation was observed after 20 minutes.

Photoactivation with ultraviolet C light can reverse the effects derived from biological ageing by restoring a hydrophilic surface. Ten titanium discs were randomly divided into three groups: a control group, a 6 W group, and an 85 W group. A drop of double-distilled, deionized, and sterile 10 µL water was applied to each of the discs. Each disc was immediately photographed in a standardized and perpendicular manner. Measurements were taken based on the irradiation time (15, 30, 60, and 120 min). UVC irradiation improved the control values in both groups. There was no difference in its effect between the 6 W group and the other groups during the first 30 min. However, after 60 min and up to 120 min, 85 W had a significantly stronger effect. The contact angles with the 85 W ultraviolet light source at 60 and 120 min were 19.43° and 31.41°, respectively, whereas the contact angles for the 6 W UVC source were 73.8° and 61.45°. Power proved to be the most important factor, and the best hydrophilicity result was obtained with a power of 85 W for 60 min at a wavelength of 254 nm.
