Article Abstract
In this work, we converted inherently hydrophilic and flammable epoxy resins to resist both fire and water. This was achieved by integrating surface modified flame-retardant CoFeO nanoparticles into the epoxy resin. The modified CoFeO nanoparticles reduce the peak heat release rate, peak smoke production release and CO production in the CoFeO/epoxy resin nanocomposite by 39.6, 41.6, and 61.3%, respectively. The obtained flame retardant CoFeO/EP items demonstrate excellent durability with constant superhydrophobicity even after high external pressure, knife-scratch, and mechanical abrasion. In addition, the obtained items demonstrate outstanding robust water-repellent properties after facing long-term exposure to extremely corrosive liquids and also show self-cleaning properties in air and under oil.

This systematic literature review explores recent advancements in polymer-based composite materials designed for thermal insulation in automotive applications, with a particular focus on sustainability, performance optimization, and scalability. The methodology follows PRISMA 2020 guidelines and includes a comprehensive bibliometric and thematic analysis of 229 peer-reviewed articles published over the past 15 years across major databases (Scopus, Web of Science, ScienceDirect, MDPI). The findings are structured around four central research questions addressing (1) the functional role of insulation in automotive systems; (2) criteria for selecting suitable polymer systems; (3) optimization strategies involving nanostructuring, self-healing, and additive manufacturing; and (4) future research directions involving smart polymers, bioinspired architectures, and AI-driven design.

With growing awareness of environmental protection and an increasing emphasis on sustainable development, bio-based epoxy resins have garnered significant attention due to their outstanding performance and eco-friendly characteristics. However, their inherent flammability restricts their broader application. Consequently, the development of efficient and environmentally benign flame-retardant technologies for bio-based epoxy resins is critical to advancing high-performance applications and fostering the development of sustainable materials.

Background: The single-cone obturation technique with iRoot SP demonstrated strong filling capacity in circular root canals; however, its sealing ability in oval root canals remains underexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the sealing performance of the single-cone obturation technique with iRoot SP in oval root canals, in comparison with warm vertical compaction obturation.
Methods: A total of 129 single-rooted teeth with oval canals were prepared using rotary instruments and randomly divided into three groups (n = 43 per group): warm vertical compaction obturation with AH Plus (WVC + AH Plus), warm vertical compaction obturation with iRoot SP (WVC + iRoot SP), and single-cone obturation with iRoot SP (SC + iRoot SP).
