They were randomly divided into 3 groups with differentOVDs. Healon 5 (sodium hyaluronate 5 000 2.3 % ) was compared with Healon GV(sodium hyaluronate 7 000 1.4 % ) and Iviz (sodium hyaluronate 1.0 % ) . Thesurgeries were performed with temporal corneal incision, phacoemulsification in situ andfoldable lens intracapsular implantation. The characteristic and the removal time of theviscoelastic material as well as the postoperative IOP, corneal reaction and anteriorchamber reactions of the eyes were observed preoperatively and 24 hrs postoperatively.Exclusion criteria were glaucoma, a preoperative dilated pupil diameter smaller than 5.0mm, proliferative diabetic retinopathy, significant corneal pathology or a history ofuveitis.Results: The removal time was 47.42 ± 13.09 seconds in Healon 5, 16. 50 ± 5.45 inHealon GV and 15.83±7.40 in Iviz. The removal time of Healon 5 group wassignificantly longer than that of the other groups ( P =0. 000) . There is no significantIOP change 24 hours postoperatively and the difference of intraocular pressure amongthree groups was not significant ( P > 0.05). Healon 5 group had the slightest cornealand anterior chamber response, followed by Healon GV and Iviz.Conclusion: Although takes longer time to remove, Healon 5 is an ideal viscoelasticmaterial for its superior space maintenance capacity and high dispersity which providessuperior protection of endothelial cells compared to Healon GV and Iviz.展开更多

The composition of C-S-H gel was analysed with SEM-EDS. The obtained results showed that the volume fraction of LD C-S-H gradually reduced and the volume fraction of HD C-S-H increased with the prolongation of hydration age. Most of the C-S-H gel produced at later age was HD C-S-H. The volume fraction of HD C-S-H increased as the fraction of slag in complex binder pastes increased, suggesting that HD C-S-H was mainly in the hydration products of slag. The chemichal compositions of the two types of C-S-H gel were simlar, meaning that formation and transformation of the two types of C-S-H gel were not affected by their Ca/Si ratio.展开更多
