Abstract

This in vitro evaluation analyzed the influence of custom base composite age on bond strength in indirect bonding. One hundred fifty permanent bovine mandibular incisors were randomly divided into 10 groups of 15 specimens each. Stainless steel brackets were bonded to the teeth using the Thomas indirect bonding technique using two different custom base composite-sealant combinations: (1) chemically cured Phase II composite and chemically cured Custom I.Q. sealant, and (2) light-cured Transbond XT composite and chemically cured Sondhi Rapid Set sealant. The composite custom bases were preaged for 24 hours and for seven, 15, 30, and 100 days. Shear bond strength tests for the two composite-sealant combinations showed no significant differences. Preaging of the custom base composite up to 30 days did not affect shear bond strength, and mean bond strength values exceeded 15 MPa in these groups. However, bond strength measurements for groups with a custom composite base aged for a longer interval (100 days) before sealant polymerization were significantly lower. On the basis of the results of this study, clinicians can safely use custom base composites aged up to 30 days when using the Thomas indirect bonding technique.

Effect of capillary condensation on friction force and adhesion.

Friction force measurements have been conducted with a colloid probe on mica and silica (both hydrophilic and hydrophobized) after long (24 h) exposure to high-humidity air. Adhesion and friction measurements have also been performed on cellulose substrates. The long exposure to high humidity led to a large hysteresis between loading and unloading in the friction measurements with separation occurring at large negative applied loads. The large hysteresis in the friction-load relationship is attributed to a contact area hysteresis of the capillary condensate which built up during loading and did not evaporate during the unloading regime. The magnitude of the friction force varied dramatically between substrates and was lowest on the mica substrate and highest on the hydrophilic silica substrate, with the hydrophobized silica and cellulose being intermediate. The adhesion due to capillary forces on cellulose was small compared to that on the other substrates, due to the greater roughness of these surfaces.

Evaluation of bond strength of soft relining materials to denture base polymers.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the initial bonding properties of recently and previously introduced soft relining materials to denture base polymers with different polymerization techniques and different water content. METHODS: The initial tensile bond strength of 10 soft liners (Mollosil Plus, Dentusil, Ufi gel Soft, GC Reline Soft, Silagum Comfort, Vertex Soft, Astron Soft, Molloplast B, Flexacryl Soft, Triad Resiline) to three denture base polymers (Paladon 65, Palapress Vario, Ivocap Plus) were assessed with a modified method. Paladon 65 specimens immersed in water for 3 months were also used to test the effect of water content of denture base polymer on bond strength results. After testing, a visual examination of the fracture surfaces and a SEM investigation of the interface structure were performed. Tensile strength of each soft liner material was also tested. Data were analyzed statistically by two-way ANOVA (alpha = 0.05). RESULTS: Significant differences were found among tensile bond strength results (P < 0.05). Vinyl poly(organosiloxane) soft liners (Mollosil Plus, Dentusil, Ufi gel Soft, GC Reline Soft, Silagum Comfort) and a plasticized PMMA soft liner (Vertex Soft) gave statistically similar bond strength results for different denture base polymers (P>0.05). For the other materials used (Astron Soft, Molloplast B, Flexacryl Soft, Triad Resiline), different denture base polymers caused significantly different results (P < 0.05). Poly(organosiloxane) based materials gave slightly higher bond strength results with water immersed specimens than with the dry specimens. SIGNIFICANCE: A wide variety of newly formulated soft liners used in this study gave comparable or better bond strength results compared to Molloplast B.

Flat and sigmoidally curved contact zones in vesicle-vesicle adhesion.

Using the membrane-bending elasticity theory and a simple effective model of adhesion, we study the morphology of lipid vesicle doublets. In the weak adhesion regime, we find flat-contact axisymmetric doublets, whereas at large adhesion strengths, the vesicle aggregates are nonaxisymmetric and characterized by a sigmoidally curved, S-shaped contact zone with a single invagination and a complementary evagination on each vesicle. The sigmoid-contact doublets agree very well with the experimentally observed shapes of erythrocyte aggregates. Our results show that in identical vesicles with large to moderate surface-to-volume ratio, the sigmoid-contact shape is the only bound morphology. We also discuss the role of sigmoid contacts in the formation of multicellular aggregates such as erythrocyte rouleaux.
