Isolated, disjointed events would take place, only to be engulfed by an opaque black void, their relative meaning, their significance, annulled by the eons of entropic silence that estranged one from the next.
Grain/matrix ratio (GMR) was calculated by using the ratios of phenocrysts, microlites, volcanic glass, voids and opaque minerals after point counting on thin sections.
At 16 weeks, defects treated with PEG/ β-TCP osteochondral composite were filled with repaired white opaque tissue with more than 75 percentage void area; the surface was relatively rough compared with sham operation groups; most of margins were still visible).
Confirmation that the galaxy is the oldest and most distant object sheds new light on a period of the universe's early history when the vast void of space was bathed in an opaque "fog" of hydrogen gas, which was slowly cleared by the intense ultraviolet light given off by the first stars and galaxies.
Porosity is advantageous to the use of CoPECs as biomaterials: natural connective tissue is opaque (or at least translucent) as a result of void volume.
While this would not be a concern with opaque ceramic tile, the randomly distributed air pockets or voids may be visible through clear or translucent glass.
In addition, the results obtained in this study are supported by previous observations that an amelogenin gel, formed at pH 6.8, develops voids in response to temperature, turning the gel opaque when the temperature is changed from 4°C to 24°C [ 22].
On thin sections prepared with the fresh samples, petrographic studies were carried out by using a point counter with a polarizing microscope, and mineral composition, texture, void ratio, volcanic glass presence and state of these fragments within the rock, secondary mineral formation and opaque mineral presence were determined.
Based on the classification of solid and void components of building facades, the solar facades reviewed in this article are divided into two major types: opaque solar facades and transparent or semi-transparent (translucent) facades.
