Several pre-cementation procedures advocate enhancing adhesion between zirconia and resin-based cements. There is, however, limited documentation on how these pre-treatments affect the strength of high translucent zirconia.

NIOM have 17 laboratories, and a vast, up- to date instrument park. Today we would like to highlight our new key instrument in materials research, nicknamed the SEM.

On December 5th, NIOM scientist Amund Ruud successfully defended his doctoral thesis at the University of Oslo. The thesis Novel Materials and Operando Studies for Lithium-Ion Batteries explores new materials for lithium-ion batteries.

We are proud to announce that PhD-fellow Amund Ruud has joined NIOM effective April.
