Effect of Self-adhesive Resin Cement and Tribochemical Treatment on Bond Strength to Zirconia

Aim To evaluate the interactive effects of different self- adhesive resin cements and tribochemical treatment on bond strength to zirconia. Methodology The following self-adhesive resin cements for bonding two zirconia blocks were evaluated： Maxcem （MA）, Smartcem （SM）, Rely X Unicem Aplicap （UN）, Breeze （BR）, Biscem （BI）, Set （SE）, and Clearfil SA luting （CL）. The specimens were grouped according to conditioning as follows： Group 1, polishing with 600 grit polishing paper; Group 2, silica coating with 110 μm Al2O3 particles which modified with silica; and, Group 3, tribochemical treatment - silica coating ＋ silanization. Specimens were stored in distilled water at 37℃ for 24 hours before testing shear bond strength. Results Silica coating and tribochemical treatment significantly increased the bond strength of the MA, UN, BR, B1, SE and CL to zirconia compared to #600 polishing. For both #600 polished and silica coating treatments, MDP- containing self-adhesive resin cement CL had the highest bond strengths to zirconia. Conclusion Applying silica coating and tribochemical treatment improved the bond strength of self-adhesive resin cement to zirconia, especially for CL.

Effect of Different Pretreatments to Post-space on Bonding Strength of Fiber Posts Luted with a Self-adhesive Resin Cement

The effects of different post-space pretreatments on the retentive force of fiber posts cemented with a self-adhesive resin cement were investigated. Twenty-eight single-canal premolars were obturated by Resilon using warm vertical compaction and treated with distilled water, 2.5% NaOCl, 17% EDTA and 2.5% NaOCI; or 17% EDTA, 2.5% NaOCI, and ultrasonic agitation （U/E/N treatment）. Subsequently, radicular dentin surfaces were observed under scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. RelyX Fiber Posts were cemented in the treated canals by using RelyX U100, and thin-slice push-out test and SEM observation of coronal and apical regions of the specimens were performed. Data were analyzed using two-way ANOVA and Tukey＇s HSD post- hoc tests, and the percentage of failure type was calculated. Ultrasonic/EDTA/NaOC1 irrigation showed the maximum effectiveness in removing the smear layer and debris on the dentin surface. The apical bond strength of the experimental groups was significantly higher than that of the control group （P〈 0.05）. Adhesive failure between cement and dentin was the most common mode of failure. No obvious RDIZ or resin tag was detected. Chemical irrigants facilitated the bonding of these fiber posts, and ultrasonic activation improved retention. Future studies should evaluate the effectiveness of irrigation on fiber post push-out strength in fatigue cycling condition.

Investigation of Color Change of Different Restoration Thickness, Background Color and Resin Cement Shade on CAD/CAM Glass Ceramic Materials

The aim of this study is to investigate the color change of different restoration thicknesses, backgrounds and resin cement colors on lithium disilicate and zirconium reinforced lithium silicate materials in vitro. In this study, IPS emax CAD (LT C14) and Celtra Duo (LT C14) are used as full ceramic materials, and Variolink Esthetic LC (warm, neutral) used as resin cement and Tokuyama Estelite Sigma Quick (A3, A2) is used as composite materials. A total of 160 samples in the form of 40 pieces of 5 × 5 0.4 mm thick 40 pieces of 5 × 5 0.6 mm thick square discs from each of the all-ceramic materials in block form were obtained using a water jet device (DWJ1525-FA;Dardi International Corporation, Nanjing, China). Glass ceramic samples produced in 2 different thicknesses were cemented on 2 different backgrounds with 2 different resin types of cement. Color measurements of the samples before and after cementation were performed on a grey background with spectrophotometer Vita EasyShade V (Vita Zahnfabrik, Bad Sackingen, Germany) and color parameters (L*, a*, b*, ΔE) were calculated according to the CIE Lab (Commission Internationale de L’Eclairage) system. Average values for each group (ΔE) were not affected by ceramic type, material thickness, background color, resin cement color, and the interaction of these four variables (p > 0.05). When the triple interactions between the groups were examined, there were no statistically significant differences (p > 0.05). In the evaluation of pairwise interactions between two groups (material type-material thickness, material type-background color, and thickness of material-background interactions) statistically significant differences (p Implications: The material type, thickness, background and cement color used did not cause any statistically significant color change in lithium disilicate and zirconium-reinforced lithium silicate glass ceramic materials (p > 0.05).

An Experimental Study on the Reinforcement of Weakly-Consolidated Shallow Formation in Deep Water Using an Epoxy Resin-Based Fluid

The mechanical properties of Portland cement differ from the weakly consolidated shallow formation in deep water.This results in undesired abrupt changes in the compressive strength and elastic modulus at the cement–formation interface.In this study,a water-borne epoxy resin was applied as a strengthening material to reinforce the weakly consolidated shallow formation and protect the cement sheath from potential failure.The mechanical properties of the unconsolidated clay were tested,including their changes with increases in the temperature and curing time.In addition,the effects of the seawater,cement slurry alkaline filtrate,and saltwater drilling fluid were evaluated.As confirmed by the results,the strengthening fluid was excellent at reinforcing the unconsolidated clay,with a compressive strength of 2.49 MPa(after curing for 7 days),even at a dosage of 5%.A cement slurry filtrate with a high pH was suitable to produce the required strengthening of the formation,especially its early age strength.It should also be pointed out that the used fluid exhibited good compatibility with the saltwater drilling fluid and seawater behaved well as a diluent for the strengthening fluid.

Immediate and delayed micro-tensile bond strength of different luting resin cements to different regional dentin

We sought to evaluate immediate and delayed micro-tensile bond strength of Panavia F2.0 and Multilink Sprint resin cement to superficial, deep and cervical dentin. Thirty-six freshly extracted non-carious human molars were sectioned in the mesiodistal direction to expose three different dentin regions including superficial dentin （1 mm below the dentine-enamel junction）, deep dentin （1 mm above the highest pulp horn） and cervical dentin （0.5 mm above the cemento-enamel junction and 0.5 mm below the dentine-enamel junction）. Resin cements were applied on dentin surfaces and composite blocks were luted under constant seating pressure. Each group was divided into three subgroups according to time intervals. Specimens were sectioned to obtain sticks of 1 mm2 in diameter and subjected to microtensile bond strength testing at a cross head speed of 1 mrn/min. Both resin cements showed higher micro-tensile bond strength to superficial dentin than that to deep or cervical dentin （P 〈 0.001）. Micro-ten- sile bond strengths of Panavia F2.0 were higher than those of Multilink Sprint at different dentin regions （P 〈 0.001）. Immediate ＂micro-tensile bond strengths were higher than those of delayed micro-tensile bond strengths for both resin cements （P 〈 0.001）. It was concluded that resin cements with different chemical formulations and applications yield significantly different micro-tensile bond strengths to different dentin regions.

The Influence of Ceramic Surface Treatments on the Microtensile Bond Strength of Resin Cements to Y-TZP Ceramic

The effects of surface conditioning methods on the microtensile bond strength of Y-TZP ceramic were studied based on airborne particle abrasion and resin cements.Eight square-shaped（φ12 mm×5 mm high） Y-TZP ceramic were studied blocks（LAVATM,3M ESPE,USA） and flat occlusal dentin blocks were fabricated,pre-treated（airborne abrasion with 125μm Al2O3 particles,tribochemical silica coating with 110 μm Al2O3 particles modified by silica oxide）,and bonded to each other using resin cements（Panavia F 2.0,RelyX Unicem）.Thereafter the trilayer specimens were cut into microbar specimens with a bonding area of approximately 1.0±0.1 mm2 and then microtensile bond strength tests were performed.The Y-TZP ceramic following airborne particle abrasion with 125μm Al2O3 and silicoating,the surface roughness of Y-TZP and its surface silica content were confirmed to increase.Overall,the Y-TZP ceramic surface treatment with a tribochemical silica coating showed the highest microtensile bond strength of the phosphate monomer-based resin cement to Y-TZP ceramic（mean MPa=18.11±0.27（Panavia F 2.0）,17.45±0.39（Rely X Unicem）.In cases in which a silica coating was applied,there was no significant difference in the bonding strength depending on resin cements（P0.05）.

Application of mixture design to optimize cementation of simu-lated spent radioactive ion exchange resins

The aim of this study was to assess the usefulness of a mixture design for spent resin immobilization in cement as well as to examine the cement-slag-ash system for spent resin solidification. Eighteen distinct combina- tions,consisting of Portland cement,blast furnace slag,fly ash,organic ion exchange resins and water,were selected by a mixture design computer procedure to compose representative experiment points. The measured properties of solidified forms resulting from the combinations included 28-day compressive strength,42-day immersion strength,42-day immersion weight and slump. These data were fit to a mathematic model with the aid of Scheffé quadratic polynomial,and the effects of each ingredient on the measured properties were identified through an analysis of the response trace plots and contour plots. Utilization of an optimality function singled out an optimal combination com- prising water=0.16(wt/wt),slag=0.21,ash=0.10,cement=0.27 and resin=0.26 from which the resulting response was 11MPa for the 28-day strength,110mm for the slump and 5.4% for the 42-day increase in strength.

Priming the tooth surface with chlorhexidine and antibacterial activity of resin cement

AIM: To evaluate the effect of priming the tooth surface with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate on antibacteria activity of resin cement. METHODS: Ten patients in whom a single missing tooth was present on both the right and left side in the upper or lower arch were selected. Two fixed partia dentures(FPDs) in each patient on the right and left side were planned. Each FPD was assigned either to the control or test group. In the control group, FPD was luted with resin cement and in the test group, the tooth surface was primed with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate before luting with resin cement. Bacteriological samples were collected at base line level, as the patient came to the outpatient department before the start of any treatment, 5 wk prior to cementation of FPD and at 13 wk(8wk after final cementation). Microbiological processing of all samples was done and the results were statistically analyzed. RESULTS: In the test group, a predominance of aerobic/facultative gram positive cocci rod was seen which indicates a healthy periodontal site, whereas in thecontrol group, a predominance of anaerobic gram negative rods was present which indicates an unhealthy periodontal condition. This is evident by the fact that the anaerobic bacteria percentage in the control sample is 57% and 15% in the test sample after 13 wk, whereas the aerobic/facultative bacteria percentage is 43% in the control sample and 85% in the test sample after 13 wk. The percentage of gram negative bacteria in the control sample is 61% and in the test sample is 20% after 13 wk, whereas the percentage of gram positive bacteria in the control sample is 39% and in the test sample is 80% after 13 wk. The shift from anaerobic gram negative bacteria to aerobic gram positive bacteria is clearly seen from the control to test sample after 13 wk. CONCLUSION: The present study demonstrated that priming the tooth surface with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate may enhance antibacterial activity of the resin cement.

MICROLEAKAGE OF CLASS V RESIN-MODIFIED GLASS IONOMER CEMENT AND COMPOMER RESTORATIONS IN VITRO

Objective To assess the microleakage of Class V restorations made with two resin-modified glass ionomer cements （RMGICs） and two polyacid-modified composite resins （PMCRs）. Methods Restorations of the four materials （ GC Fuji Ⅱ LC, Vitremer^TM, Dyract AP and F2000^TM ） were placed in facial Class V cavity preparations in forty noncarious human molar teeth. Teeth were randomly assigned to 4 experimental groups of 10 teeth each. After thermal cycling（ ×20, 5 -55℃ ） , the interface between dentin and restorations was spattercoated with gold and observed under scanning electron microscopy （SEM）. Then the square and average width of margin gaps of central 1/3 interface were recorded with image analysis software. Results The data indicated no significant differences between all the restorative materials for both occlusal and gingival margins. Further analysis revealed there were statistically significant differences between occlusal margins and gingival margins for VitremerTM and Dyract AP, respectively. Conclusion None of the tested materials guaranteed margins free of microleakage. Resin-modified glass ionomer cements showed similar margin gaps to the polyacid-modified composite resins tested.

环氧树脂乳液改性油井水泥的性能研究

随着油气井勘探领域的不断扩展和深入,油井水泥脆性较大的弊端越来越明显,在复杂的压力和温度条件下,水泥石容易产生裂缝从而造成强度损失,甚至会进一步导致水泥环的完整性失效,对油气井的安全生产有着严重的危害.为克服油井水泥的脆性,聚合物乳液因其能有效改善水泥的韧性、保水性而得到广泛应用.针对深井、超深井高温高压固井需求,制备了水性环氧树脂乳液改性水泥,并对其流变性能、稠化性能、抗折抗压强度和弹性模量等应用性能进行了研究,同时利用X射线衍射(XRD)、固体核磁共振(NMR)和热失重(TG)等表征手段探究了环氧树脂乳液体系在水泥中的作用机理.结果表明,环氧树脂乳液的加入改善了水泥浆的静态滤失性能,对水泥浆的流变性能和稠化行为没有负面影响.改性水泥石的抗折强度显著提高,尤其是当环氧树脂乳液掺量为15%时,90℃养护7 d、14 d和28 d的水泥抗折强度分别提高了25%、111%和100%.同时,与空白试样相比,环氧树脂乳液掺量为5%、15%和20%的水泥弹性模量分别降低了39.4%、42.8%和58.1%.环氧树脂乳液不会改变水泥的水化产物,只会在水泥水化早期起到一定的延缓和阻碍作用;环氧树脂在水泥基体中发生固化交联反应,在水泥水化过程中水化产物之间形成了联结,从而提高了水泥石的抗折性能,降低了水泥石的弹性模量.

改性环氧树脂在抗腐蚀水泥浆中的应用

在CCUS井中,水泥石抗腐蚀能力和力学性能是确保水泥环密封完整性的关键。抗腐蚀水泥浆体系最常用的是胶乳等成膜堵孔类聚合物材料通过提高水泥石致密性,降低水泥石渗透率,进而降低提高CO_(2)的侵入阻力。但胶乳等材料会导致水泥石抗压强度较低的问题,不利于CCUS井前期压裂、后期的反复注采中保持水泥环长期完整性。本研究采用可固化树脂代替胶乳,起到降低扩散速率作用的同时,提高水泥石力学性能。利用脂肪醇聚氧乙烯醚对环氧树脂改性,优选2-乙基-4-甲基咪唑为固化剂,形成的树脂与固化剂体系可直接混入配浆水中,现场作业简便,且树脂的固化反应与水泥浆的稠化反应相互独立,树脂水泥浆复合体系的耐温能力强,130℃条件下流动性好、稠化时间可调,7d抗压强度最高达51.1MPa,杨氏模量低至4.97GPa。树脂固化体可有效提高水泥石致密性,降低水泥石渗透率,进而降低提高CO_(2)的侵入阻力,形成的树脂水泥浆复合体系具有良好的抗腐蚀性能。
