[Application of 4-META on adhesive opaque resin. (Part 2) Improvement of adhesive stability (author's transl)].
We had reported 4-META adhesive opaque resin for a metal casting etched with HC1. The bonding strength was as excellent as 260 kg/cm2 after 300 times thermal cycles between 4 degrees C and 60 degrees C but it decreased to 70 kg/cm2 when immersed in water at 37 degrees C for 30 weeks. It was required to improve the stability of bonding against water penetration into the adhesive junction before the clinical application. Preparation of the passive state on the metal casting adhesive stability between this film and the opaque resin were studied in this paper. When the metal casting was dipped in conc. HNO3 for fifteen minutes, adhesive strength was 260 kg/cm2 even after a 30 weeks immersion in water at 37 degrees C or the 10 weeks at 80 degrees C. It could be concluded that the adhesive opaque resin possesses enough adhesive strength and the stability for oral application.
