During dentin bonding, solvated adhesive comonomers are applied to water-saturated decalcified dentin matrices. When alcohol-solvated hydrophilic or hydrophobic methacrylate monomers are applied, they chemically remove water and cause matrix shrinkage during comonomer infiltration. Evaporation of solvent induces further shrinkage. The purpose of this work was to compare the shrinkage of water-saturated dentin matrices infiltrated with ethanol- or methanol-solvated 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate (HEMA), 2,2-bis[4(2-hydroxy-3-methacryloyloxy-propyloxy)-phenyl] propane (BisGMA), or triethyleneglycol dimethacrylate (TEGDMA) at 90/10, 70/30, 50/50, and 30/70 mass fraction % alcohol/monomer before and after evaporation of alcohol. Thin (ca 0.2 mm) disks of human mid-coronal dentin were demineralized and placed in a well beneath the contact probe of a linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). The height of the matrix was measured before and after random application of one of the twelve alcohol/monomer mixtures. Matrix height was measured during infiltration and during solvent evaporation. Between trials, residual monomer was extracted using ethanol. These studies were repeated on specimens in which 100% alcohol was used to substitute for water in the matrix. Both studies revealed that matrices shrink 30-50% but that pretreatment of matrices with alcohol prevents BisGMA phase separations from occurring. Wet bonding with ethanol instead of water permits infiltration of relatively hydrophobic alcohol/monomers.
We have investigated the phase behavior of a fluorinated surfactant R(7)(F)(EO)(7) in water. The cloud point is situated at 19 degrees C for 2 wt% of surfactant. Using this surfactant, mesoporous materials have been synthesized with micellar solution prepared either at 10 degrees C (below the cloud point) or at 40 degrees C (above the cloud point). Results show that whatever the syntheses conditions, only wormhole-like structure is recovered. The effect of perfluorodecalin addition on the fluorinated surfactant/water system was also investigated. Swollen micelles, microemulsion, and lamellar (L(alpha)) liquid crystals were identified. When perfluorodecalin is added, the cloud point is shifted toward higher temperature. As regards the mesoporous syntheses, perfluorodecalin plays a dual role. First, incorporation of perfluorodecalin leads to the formation of well ordered materials. Secondly, the pore size enlargement occurs when perfluorodecalin is added. Our results evidence that the ratio between the volume of the hydrophilic headgroup (V(H)) and the hydrophobic part (V(L)) of the surfactant is not an efficiency parameter to explain the ordering improvement of mesoporous materials and that we should rather consider the existence of the cloud point curve, which disturbs the cooperative templating mechanism (CTM).
