Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the shear bond strength (SBS) of veneering ceramic and zirconia fabricated by the digital veneering method.
Methods: A total of 50 specimens were fabricated, i.e., 10 specimens each for the metal-ceramic (control) group and the four zirconia groups. The zirconia groups comprised specimens fabricated by the digital veneering method, the heat pressing method, and hand layering method for two groups, respectively. Furthermore, the shear bond strength was measured with a universal testing machine (Model 3345, Instron, Canton, MA, USA) and statistically analyzed using one-way ANOVA set at a significance level of P<0.05. The corresponding mode of failure was determined from Scanning Electron Microscope (FESEM JSM 6701F, Jeol Ltd., Japan) observations.
Results: One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed that the metal-ceramic group had the highest SBS (43.62MPa), followed by the digital veneering method (28.29MPa), the heat pressing method (18.89MPa), and the layering method (18.65, 17.21MPa). The samples fabricated by digital veneering had a significantly higher SBS than the other zirconia samples (P<0.05). All of the samples exhibited mixed failure.
Conclusions: Veneering ceramic with a zirconia core that was fabricated via the digital veneering method is believed to be effective in clinical use since, its shear bond strength is significantly higher than that resulting from the conventional method.

This research aimed to assess the shear bond strength (SBS) of metal brackets bonded to composite veneers using different surface preparations. One-hundred composite disks were divided into 10 different groups whereby each group combines a surface preparation (roughening or no roughening), etching agent (37% phosphoric or 9.5% hydrofluoric acid), adhesive protocol (self-etch or total-etch), and bonding agent (with or without G-Premio Bond).

To investigate the effect of different sandblasting settings on the shear bond strength (SBS) in the repair of resin composite, specimens (resin composite, enamel, and dentin; each group = 16) were sandblasted by varying the parameters of air pressure (0.2/0.3/0.

Two 3D-printed crown materials (Crown and Ceramic Crown) were examined to determine the best surface treatment and primers for bonding. Discs of the two materials were printed and mounted with their "intaglio" surfaces untouched. Half the specimens from each group were sandblasted with 50 µm alumina.

Friction stir spot welding (FSSW) technology relies on the generation of frictional heat during the rotation of the welding tool in contact with the workpiece as well as the stirring effect of the tool pin to produce solid-state spot joints, especially for lightweight materials. Although FSSW offers significant advantages over traditional fusion welding, the oxidation of the interfacial bond line remains one of the most challenging issues, affecting the quality and strength of the joint under both static and cyclic loading conditions. In this experimental study, inert argon gas was employed to surround the joint, aiming to prevent or minimize the formation of the interfacial oxides.

Accurate models for predicting drop dynamics, such as maximum drop departure sizes, are crucial for estimating heat transfer rates during condensation on superhydrophobic (SH) surfaces. Previous studies have focused on examining the heat transfer rates for SH surfaces under the influence of gravity or vapor flowing over the surface. This study investigates the impact of surface solid fraction and texture scale on drop mobility in a condensing environment with a humid air flow.
