This study investigated the influence of two polyphenols on the structure and lubrication of the salivary pellicle, aiming to extend the understanding of astringency mechanisms. The salivary pellicle was prepared by the adsorption of human whole saliva on the enamel substrate. Low-astringency catechin and high-astringency tannic acid were used as astringents. The changes induced by the two polyphenols in the structure and lubrication of the salivary pellicle were examined using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM-D) and nano- indentation/scratch technique. The salivary pellicle suffers from changes in structure and physical properties owing to protein dehydration and protein-polyphenol complexation when encountering polyphenolic molecules, causing increases in the roughness and contact angle but a decrease in the load-bearing capacity. Therefore, the lubrication performance of the salivary pellicle is impaired, leading to an increase and fluctuation of the friction coefficient. The intensity of astringency has a strong positive correlation with the water contact angle, surface roughness, and friction coefficient of the salivary pellicle. In summary, astringency is a tactile perception driven by the roughness and wettability of the salivary pellicle rather than oral lubrication, and increased intraoral friction is an inevitable consequence of astringency. The findings of this study will help promote and assist the objective evaluation of astringency.

Hydrophilic polymer coatings can improve the surface characteristics of artificial implants. However, because they are used in vivo, they inevitably come into contact with biomolecules that affect their interfacial tribological properties. In this paper,

为研究弯折波现象和分析弯折波对舰载机拦阻过程的影响,基于Euler–Bernoulli非线性梁理论,建立了考虑弯折波的拦阻索离散模型.对拦阻过程进行数值仿真,仿真结果表明,弯折波在整个拦阻过程均存在,使得拦阻钩载荷出现波动,且这种波动在拦阻初期最为剧烈,之后逐渐减弱.弯折波的存在明显缩短了拦停时间和拦停位移,还使得拦阻索拉力的最大值更大.此外,奇数重弯折波与偶数重弯折波在传播方向、拉力角和弯折波平均波速等方面均表现出明显的不同.
