Efficacy of accelerated aging methods to degrade the adhesive interface of dentin cavities bonded with etch-and-rinse adhesive systems

This study evaluated the bond durability produced by etch-and-rinse (E&R) adhesive systems in response to traditional and accelerated aging methods. Tridimensional dentin cavities were prepared on 80 bovine incisors, which were bonded with a 3-step E&R (Adper Scotchbond Multipurpose Plus – MP) and a 2-step E&R (Adper Single Bond 2 (SB) adhesive systems, and restored with composite. The samples were stored in water for 24 h, and then subjected to each of the aging methods (n = 10): control group – only 24-h storage (not exposed to additional aging), 6- and 12-month water storage, and 10% NaOCl storage. The push-out bond strength test was performed in a universal testing machine. Failure modes were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. Data were analyzed by two-way ANOVA and Tukey tests (p < 0.05). Aging methods provided statistically similar bond strength for 3-step E&R adhesive system (p > 0.05). 10% NaOCl storage provides statistically similar bond strength values to 6- and 12-month water storage (p > 0.05), which were statistically lower than those provided by 24-h water storage (control group) (p < 0.05). Adhesive failures were more frequent. Aging methods provided different behaviors according to each adhesive system. The accelerated 10% NaOCl storage was effective to decrease bond strength only for 2-step E&R adhesive system.     

Surface pretreatment of plastics for adhesive bonding

Abstraet-Many plastics have a poor tendency to bond to other materials because of their inherent inert chemical structure and thus require a pretreatment. Wet chemical methods are expensive because of the disposal of the waste liquids. In this study, the corona treatment (Ional process), the low-pressure plasma process, and the fluorination process were tested and compared with each other. The following plastics were tested: PP (polypropylene), PBT (polybutyleneterephthalate), PBT blends, and a high-temperature thermoplastic, PEEK (polyetheretherketone). In particular, the low-temperature plasma process results in excellent adhesion strength. In addition, we have shown that the stability of freshly plasma-treated surfaces could be maintained for time periods of at least several days.     

Ammonia plasma treatment of polyolefins for adhesive bonding with a cyanoacrylate adhesive

Polypropylene (PP), low-density polyethylene (LDPE), and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) sheets were surface-modified by radio-frequency ammonia plasmas in order to improve the strength and durability of adhesive bonding, particularly under hot and humid conditions. Surface analyses by contact angle measurements, XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), and FTIR-ATR (Fourier transform infraredattennuated total reflection) showed incorporation, upon plasma treatment, of both nitrogen- and oxygen-containing functional groups on the polyolefin surfaces, with similar surface compositions on modified LDPE and PP. Plasma-treated polyolefin samples bonded with a cyanoacrylate adhesive possessed a high shear bond strength in 'dry' conditions. On exposure to hot and humid conditions (immersion in 60°C water), the bond strength decreased with time in some cases while for other samples the lap shear strength was the same after exposure to the humid environment for 1 month compared with that under 'dry' conditions. Ammonia-plasma-treated HDPE specimens displayed the best strength retention upon water immersion. The excellent durability of the bond strength under humid conditions is indicative of covalent bonding between the cyanoacrylate adhesive and amine groups, which unlike physical bonding (e.g. van der Waals interactions) is not disrupted by the ingress of water molecules. It is also possible that the structure of the interphase is in the form of an interpenetrating network, obtained through penetration of the adhesive into the plasma-modified laycr, followed by covalent bonding and curing of the penetrated adhesive.

Polymerization and adhesion behavior of experimental dental bonding materials with different initiator systems

The use of alternative photoinitiators has been reported as a way to improve physical-mechanical characteristics of dental adhesive systems. In this way, the aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of conversion (DC) and dentin bond strength in dentin cavities of experimental simplified adhesive systems formulated with alternative photoinitiators and diphenyliodonium hexafluorophosphate (DPIHFP). A model simplified adhesive system was formulated by mixing a similar blend of monomers with different photoinitiator systems: camphorquinone (CQ), phenylpropanedione (PPD), bis-alkyl phosphine oxide (BAPO), CQ/PPD, and CQ/BAPO; with or without the addition of DPIHFP. DC was measured using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy. Bond strength was evaluated in bovine dentin cavities. DPIHFP increased DC for the CQ-based system, but did not affect the dentin bond strength. The PPD system showed the highest DC. All photoinitiator systems provided similar dentin bond strength. DPIHFP seems to increase the DC of CQ-based system, but it had no influence on PPD or BAPO systems. PPD was the most effective for to increase DC without improving bond strength of adhesive systems. Therefore, it is recommended that new adhesive systems to be formulated with phenylpropanedione to increase the DC of tooth restorations caused by traditional camphorquinone-based adhesive systems.     

Plasma treatment of tetrafluoroethylene-ethylene copolymers for adhesive bonding

The aim of this work was to improve adhesion to tefzel using plasma surface treatment. The plasmas used were O₂, and NH₃. Joints ,ade from the adherends using several commercially available epoxy adhesives were tested using a double lap shear configuration. Measured bond strenghts for the treated adherends were as much as 30 times greater than those for the untreated materials. Examination of the O₂ plasma-treated Tefzel by electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis indicated a surface oxidation increase of about 7NDASH;8% over the untreated material, with the oxide being primarily in the form of an ester.

Aspects of enamel bonding using experimental silanes for orthodontic adhesion

This in vitro study investigates bonding to enamel using experimental silane-based primers with and without 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) under various artificial ageing methods. One hundred and fifty sound extracted human premolars were used and randomly assigned to three experimental study groups. They were first acid-etched for 15 s, rinsed with water spray, air dried, and applied 0.3 ml of artificial saliva on the enamel surfaces. Two groups of enamel surfaces were primed using silane-based experimental primers (1.0 vol% of 3-isocyanatopropyltrimethoxysilane and 0.5 vol% of bis-1,2-(triethoxysilylethane) with and without 25% HEMA) while one group was served as control. Then, stainless steel premolar orthodontic brackets were fixed onto teeth with orthodontic resin composite. The specimens from each group (n=10) were stored under different ageing conditions: thermo-cycling (500, 2000, and 6000 cycles), storage in artificial saliva for 24 h, and for one year. The shear adhesion (bond) strength (SBS) was tested by using a universal testing machine at a crosshead speed of 1.0 mm/min. Surface morphology and failure modes at the debonded interfaces were examined using SEM. Two-way ANOVA and post hoc tests were used to compare the SBS (α=0.05). The results suggested that an experimental primer with 25% HEMA, after 24 h storage in artificial saliva, produced the highest mean SBS (22.1 MPa, SD 2.2 MPa). The lowest mean value (5.8 MPa, SD 1.1 MPa) was obtained with the control group thermo-cycled (6000 cycles). There was a significant difference between the experimental primers (p<0.001) and artificial ageing (p<0.001). We conclude that 25% HEMA inclusion in silane primer could provide satisfactory adhesion strength, and 500 cycles of thermo-cycling (ISO TR 11450) does not correlate with 1-year artificial saliva storage for enamel bonding test.

The influence of retention hole and adhesive systems on the shear bond strengths of resin composite to amalgam

The aim of the study is to evaluate the influence of surface-treatment methods with and without the use of a retention hole on the shear bond strength of a resin composite adhered to amalgam using an adhesive system. Amalgam specimens were divided into six groups. Group 1 (Bur) specimens were roughened with a diamond bur, Group 2 (Al₂O₃) specimens were sandblasted with a 50?μm aluminum oxide powder, Group 3 (CoJet^®) specimens were sandblasted with 30?μm CoJet^® Sand, Group 4 (Bur?+?Rh) specimen surfaces were prepared with a retention hole 1?mm in diameter and 1?mm deep and roughened with a diamond bur, Group 5 (Al₂O₃?+?Rh) specimens were also prepared with a retention hole and sandblasted with 50?μm aluminum oxide powder, and Group 6 (CoJet^®?+?Rh) surfaces were prepared with a retention hole and sandblasted with 30?μm CoJet^® Sand. Resin composite cylinders were bonded onto the amalgam surfaces using Xeno^® IV, Optibond? All-In-One, Clearfil? SE Bond, Adper? Single Bond Plus, and Scotchbond? Multi-Purpose adhesive systems. In addition, silane (Monobond S) was used for Groups 5 and 6. The shear bond was determined and statistically analyzed using two-way analysis of variance and post hoc Tukey’s tests (p?≤?0.05). The surface treatment significantly affected the shear bond strengths of the adhesive systems. The shear bond strengths of Optibond? All-In-One (2.661?±?0.48?MPa) in Group 1 and Scotchbond Multi-Purpose (3.818?±?0.98) in Group 4 were significantly higher than those of the other adhesive systems. Silica coating of the amalgam surface significantly improved the shear bond strength of the resin composites. The addition of a retention hole on the amalgam affects the bonding strength of the composite adhesion.

Atmospheric pressure plasma activation as a surface pre-treatment for the adhesive bonding of aluminum 2024

A low-temperature, atmospheric pressure helium and oxygen plasma has been used for the surface preparation of aluminum 2024 prior to adhesive bonding. The plasma converted the aluminum from a water contact angle (WCA) of 79° to down to 38° within 5 s of exposure, while sanding reduced the WCA to only 51°. Characterization of the aluminum surface by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy revealed a decrease in carbon contamination from 70 to 36% and an increase in the oxygen content from 22 to 50% following plasma treatment. Similar trends were observed for sanded surfaces. Lap shear results demonstrated bond strengths of 30?±?2?MPa for the sanded aluminum vs. 33?±?1?MPa for plasma-treated aluminum, where sol–gel and primer coatings were added to the surface preparation. Following seven days of aging, wedge crack extension tests revealed cohesive failure percentages of 86, 92, and 96% for sanded, plasma-treated, and sanded/plasma-treated aluminum, respectively. These results indicate that atmospheric pressure plasmas are an attractive alternative to acid treatment or abrasion techniques for surface preparation prior to bonding.     

Modification of a nitrile-phenolic bonding agent by addition of an interfacial agent: effect on the practical adhesion between nitrile rubber and metal

—The mechanism of vulcanization bonding of a nitrile rubber (NBR) elastomer to metal with a single-coat nitrile-phenolic bonding agent is discussed. A nitrile-phenolic bonding agent consisting of NBR, phenol formaldehyde (PF) resin, and vulcanizing agents was modified with an interfacial agent (p-cresol formaldehyde resin) and the effect of interfacial agent addition on the practical adhesion between metal and the NBR elastomer after vulcanization was investigated. The adhesion strength was measured in terms of the metal-to-NBR elastomer peel strength using the bonding agent. The addition of p-cresol formaldehyde (PCF) resin to the bonding agent with a proportionate reduction of PF resin initially improved the peel strength; a maximum was reached at about 20% PCF content and then decreased with a further increase in the PCF content. The improvement in peel strength produced by the addition of PCF resin is attributed to the increased chemical bonding between NBR and the phenolic resin. The drop in peel strength above 20% PCF content is explained by the increased diffusion of the bonding agent into the NBR elastomer, away from the bond line, leading to a starved glue line. The mechanism for the optimum performance at about 20% PCF resin content is believed to be due to the balance of diffusion and chemical crosslinking.

Adhesion mechanisms in the solid‐state bonding technique using submicrometer aromatic thermosetting copolyester adhesive

The adhesion mechanism between polyimides and aromatic thermosetting copolyester (ATSP) involved in the solid‐state bonding technique using submicrometer ATSP coatings was evaluated. The adhesion strength at the interface between ATSP and polyimide is strongly related to the diffusion of ATSP into the polyimide base layer. We used dynamic secondary ion mass spectrometry to study the interface width between deuterated ATSP and polyimides and found that the interface between ATSP and poly(4,4′‐diphenylether pyromellitimide) (PMDA‐ODA) is wider than the interface between ATSP and poly(p‐phenylene biphenyltetracarboximide) (BPDA‐PPD) because of the less rigid chain in the PMDA‐ODA. By partially curing both polyimides, the interface width was greatly increased, which could lead to an improved adhesion at the interface between polyimide BPDA‐PPD and ATSP. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Experimental investigation and prediction of bonding strength of Oriental beech (Fagus orientalis Lipsky) bonded with polyvinyl acetate adhesive

Adhesive bond strength of solid wood plays a key role in the efficient use of wood in a large number of engineering applications. In this study, the effects of amount of adhesive, pressing pressure, and pressing time on bonding strength of beech wood bonded with polyvinyl acetate adhesive were investigated and predicted by developing an artificial neural network (ANN) model. Experimental results have showed that bonding strength of wood samples increased generally by increasing amount of adhesive, pressing pressure, and pressing time. Besides, ANN analysis has yielded highly satisfactory results. The designed neural network model allows predicting the bonding strength of wood samples with mean absolute percentage error of 2.454% and correlation coefficient of 97.8% for testing phase. It is clear from the results that the model has a good learning and generalization ability. This model therefore can be used to predict bonding strength of beech samples bonded with polyvinyl acetate adhesive under given conditions. Consequently, this study provides beneficial insights for practitioners in terms of the safe and efficient use of wood as an engineering material in applications related to the strength of the bond between wood and adhesive.
