Introduction: In this study, the effect of different post surface treatments on the retention of glass fiber-reinforced post to root dentin was evaluated. The hypotheses tested were (1) post silanization would not improve its retention and (2) the application of silane plus resin adhesive on the post would enhance its retention.
Methods: After root canal preparation, 4 different protocols (n = 5) of post surface treatment were evaluated, combined with or without silane (Silane coupling agent) and adhesive (Scotchbond Multipurpose): silane + adhesive (S/A), only silane, only adhesive, or no treatment (control). RelyX ARC was used for post cementation. Next, specimens were subjected to push-out bond strength testing, and data were analyzed by two-way analysis of variance and Tukey test (P < .05).
Results: S/A showed higher bond strength than other protocols in the middle and coronal root regions (P < .001). Only silane did not enhance post retention compared with control (P > .05). The root dentin region influenced bond strength results only in the S/A group.
Conclusions: Whereas silanization as the only post surface treatment did not improve retention, the combination of silane plus resin adhesive enhanced post retention to dentin in the middle and coronal root regions.

A novel monomer, 9-bis[4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]fluorene di(mercaptopropionate), with a highly refractive index, purity, and excellent UV-curable properties, is synthesized through an optimized Fischer esterification process, reacting 9,9-bis[4-(2-hydroxyethoxy)phenyl]fluorene with 3-mercaptopropionic acid. The structural characterization of this monomer is performed using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, high-performance liquid chromatography, and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. The synthesis conditions are optimized using a design-of-experiments approach.

Polymers are often insulators, but this not a universal intrinsic characteristic of all polymers. For this work, the adhesives used, epoxy and polyurethane, do demonstrate this insulating characteristic. However, there has been significant interest in the development of conductive polymers, specifically adhesives, because of the potential properties and ease of processing of these polymers.

The recycling of Carbon Fibre-Reinforced Polymers (CFRPs) is becoming increasingly crucial due to the growing demand for sustainability in high-performance industries such as automotive and aerospace. This study investigates the impact of two chemical recycling techniques, chemically assisted solvolysis and plasma-enhanced solvolysis, on the morphology and properties of carbon fibres (CFs) recovered from end-of-life automotive parts. In addition, the effects of fibre sizing are explored to enhance the performance of the recycled carbon fibres (rCFs).

Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-induced collagen degradation at the resin-dentin interface remains a significant challenge for maintaining the longevity of dental restorations. This study investigated the effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a potent MMP inhibitor, on dental adhesive curing efficiency when encapsulated in halloysite nanotubes (HNTs). EGCG-loaded HNTs were incorporated into a commercial dental adhesive (Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose) at 7.

The main objective of the current study is to compare short-term fluoride release of three ion releasing restorative materials and assess their inhibitory effect on secondary caries. Materials used in this study included, Self-adhesive hybrid composite (group A), Ion releasing flowable composite liner (group B), and alkasite restorative material (group C). Twenty-two discs were fabricated from each material for short-term fluoride release test, conducted on days 1, 7, and 14.
