University of Basrah Faculty Member Publishes Research Paper in Top-Tier (Q1) International Journal
⠀
Faculty member at the College of Dentistry at the University of Basrah, Dr. Hassanein Ali Al-Naml, published a joint scientific research paper evaluating the effect of reinforcing acrylic resin used in denture bases with aluminosilicate clay nanoparticles to enhance its mechanical, surface, and microstructural properties through an in vitro study, conducted in collaboration with researchers from the Universities of Kufa, Al-Ameed, Al-Muthanna, and Al-Mustansiriyah.
⠀
The research examined the impact of reinforcing acrylic resin utilized in denture base fabrication with aluminosilicate clay nanoparticles, evaluating its role in improving the material's mechanical and surface properties by measuring flexural strength, hardness, and surface roughness, alongside analyzing its microstructure.
⠀
The paper was published in Dentistry Journal, an international publication issued by MDPI, within Volume 14, Issue 11 (2026). This achievement reflects the contribution of University of Basrah faculty members to advancing dental materials and leveraging nanotechnology to enhance the efficiency of materials used in denture fabrication.
